X-zero Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Agreed and they probably will for a short while to get it from Nyla to Britt. Pac does some great serious promos too bad Kenny doesn't really seem to care about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Saint Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Pretty Much. Rijo is still with Stardom, and I think Lucha Bros are still in AAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think since they've gotten flack from having others debut like if we already know em, perhaps they just wanted to play it safe here lol But yeah, MY MANS MATANZA out here. Sucks Cobb is gonna take an L on his first match probably, but he looked good here. Like a young Rhyno even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King RyderFan Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Love how folks are claiming to be finished with AEW over Nyla winning Yeah. The transphobia is sad really. I understand not liking Nyla as a wrestler, granted, I don't think she's anything to write home about myself, but some of the reasoning, just gross.

X-zero Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Did they really think she would never win the title? Riho, Britt, and Nyla are the ones they seem to building the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Counting Lights Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Not a Nyla fan at all, but if her winning actually steers transphobes away from the product, I guess that's a silver lining. There's no room for that shit in pro wrestling, let alone in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 It isn't transphobia to disagree with a trans person being rewarded for something that is meant to be for one gender or the other. Transphobia would suggest that the dude hates transphobic people...(wants nothing to do with them)...won't even breathe the same air as one...won't talk to one, or take the time to know one. And that is simply not the case here. You ARE allowed to have opinions about transgender people performing in gender-specific sports without being "transphobic". Those are not mutually exclusive. People need to stop acting like one goes with the other. You're doing more harm than good by calling people transphobic for having that opinion. I would consider it transphobic to exclude transgender people from something like military service...because, both genders are openly enrolled. But, when it comes to something like a sports setting...that's open for deeper speculation, and nobody should be labeled anything for having an opinion either way. Pro wrestling is a good place to start that debate...because "legitimate" sports obviously have much more riding on that discussion. You certainly must consider a former male becoming a woman and joining an MMA league to fight people who were born as women. That's definitely a deeper subject...and you can't just call people transphobic for saying no to that. Another thing about the pro wrestling side of things, is that many of these promotions don't allow women to compete for men's titles. So...if you can have former males becoming women and then winning the women's titles...then you should also allow the women to win men's belts...and very few promotions (AEW not included thus far) actually do that. And to add to that, what happens if either Nyla Rose herself (or management) conveniently decides that she should be AEW World champion in the future? Is that fair to the women of AEW who probably wouldn't be given that same opportunity? It's a double-edged sword that people seem to be conveniently ignoring while slinging mud at others who have opinions against it. Tldr: Val Venis said nothing wrong.
