Tony Khan recently claimed that AEWs long-promised Womens Tag Team Title Tournament is on hold due to injuries across the womens division.
According to the AEW boss, too many sidelined talents have made it impossible to form a proper bracket. But wrestling journalists Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez arent buying it and they didnt hold back. On Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer took a hard look at Khans logic and broke it down by the numbers.
Bryan Alvarez chimed in with his signature sarcasm, mocking the idea that AEW couldnt move forward with brackets.
Meltzer agreed, pointing out that even with a few missing top stars, the company has more than enough names ready to go.
Alvarez didnt hold back on how absurd he thought the excuse was.
Meltzer then hit the core issue how this move looks to the rest of AEWs female talent.
The conversation ended with the suggestion that Khan might be holding off for the return of top stars like Mercedes Mon, Toni Storm, Athena, or Jamie Hayter. But the glaring issue remains: AEW has a stacked roster of women ready to go and fans are tired of waiting.
