You need to get it right. Most wrestling shows air once a week, which is often enough to keep their storylines moving forward. In theory, those shows are designed to build up to another show down the line which is big enough that people will pay to see it. That is still how wrestling works today and in theory, a promotion is going to give you their best results possible. That might take some effort, and that was the case last weekend.
Earlier this month, AEW presented its annual Revolution pay per view. One of the matches on the card featured AEW Women’s Champion Britt Baker retaining the title over Thunder Rosa. According to Fightful Select, the ending of the match, which ultimately saw Baker win after interfered, was changed several times throughout the week. There is no word on why the changes were made, but AEW seems to be setting up a rematch between the two on March 16 in Rosa’s hometown of San Antonio.
Opinion: This isn’t the biggest surprise, but it isn’t something you often hear from AEW. The company seems to usually have its ideas together early, though what matters here is they seem to have a plan. Moving forward towards Rosa getting the win in her hometown is fine and it is nice to see a company actually set something up this far in advance for a change. Now just stick the landing and everything works out.
What did you think of the match? Where do you see them both going from here? Let us know in the comments below.
