@llvmalik @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists Bad examples. Mina's strengths are utilized. And,while her in-ring ability steadily improves, she is nowhere near the level of IYO SKY .ROH is the ideal place for Athena, as she lends their division credibility

@DominicParadiso @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists mina shirakawa gets used the same way iyo currently does lol it’s very clear aew doesn’t value their womens division besides toni in the same way they do their mens or else athena wouldn’t be stuck on roh when she should have been womens champion by this point

"(Iyo Sky’s) not got a match for Mania. Well, here’s what I’d say: A couple days ago she put something on social media which was basically a challenge for Asuka for WrestleMania. At that point I was like, ‘Okay. They’re gonna do the match and announce it on Monday, because she’s put out the challenge. You’d never do that unless you were told to do it.”. Today, she took it down. Nobody has told me it’s dead. The last I heard was that it could happen, but it would probably be moved to Backlash. But it's not like it's for sure going to be at Backlash. But when I saw her do that job for Jade (Cargill) on Friday the way she did, clean and everything. I thought ‘they’ve made their decision, shes not gonna be on the show’. Because if she was gonna be on the show they would’ve done a different finish in a different way. She was there just to be fodder.” - Dave Meltzer (@WONF4W)

@llvmalik @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists You don't know that. And, mind you, criticisms of aews use of its female talent are often in bad faith. In many instances Visa issues were to blame, not Kahn's booking

@DominicParadiso @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists based on how other women are used in that company that’s how, please don’t try to patronize me i know how good she is she’ll always have banger matches no matter where she goes but if she decides to leave wwe she needs to go to stardom where she’ll actually be used

@3x4r3x @blsutton @LisaBritton That's literally every prosecutor. They don't prosecute based on a commitment to Justice they prosecute based on their odds of winning

@blsutton @LisaBritton Then the so-called prosecutor is worth absolutely nothing.

How? We all saw it happen on video! This just adds to the common belief that women are never the “real” abusers.

@IyosEra It's because they can never say anything bad about TKO. Stupid loyalty to the corporate entity is as old as America

I know people are blaming Rhea for IYO's Wrestlemania booking. I understand not being a fan of Rhiyo but we all know who the booker is, and Rhea shouldn't be blamed for IYO's statis. I love Rhiyo, I enjoyed their reign while it lasted, but I dont blame Rhea for IYO being left off the card, especially when she wanted to tag with IYO for Wrestlemania as champions

I’m not surprised people are mad about Iyo Sky missing WM but fine with Asuka missing it. Iyo has had a consistent push for 2 years, while Asuka had a long injury and lost general interest due to a failed heel run booked by Triple H. People just follow whoever is hot at the moment. This is completely because the general WWE audience is made up of dumb, low-IQ sheep.

@llvmalik @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists And you know this how? I can't guarantee you she'll be used properly, but it's a reasonable assumption given that hew doesn't restrict it's best competitors move sets. Not sure if you know this, but IYO has moves you've never seen because TKO won't allow hard to use them

@DominicParadiso @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists she wouldn’t be used properly there either

@DONRIGHTGAMING2 @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists Not true. That's where wrestlers go to actually wrestle. Open your eyes, WWE is never going to stop restricting her moveset and infantilizing her in stupid queer baiting segments

@DominicParadiso @NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists She would go to aew and do absolutely nothing so no it’s not sad what would be sad if she ever showed up in that garbage company

@NaturaIHazard @WrestlePurists She's under contract, which is sad, because she would add a lot to AEW and AEW's showcasing of fast-paced; high-risk action suits her perfectly

@WrestlePurists Iyo going to AEW would be what makes me leave WWE for AEW

@RomanEra0 Stratton Ave Sikoa are no loss to the card. Everyone else on that list would absolutely have added something spectacular

WWE Superstars who didn’t make this year’s WrestleMania... • IYO Sky • Asuka • Kairi Sane • Carmelo Hayes • Ilja Dragunov • Giulia • Tiffany Stratton • Rey Fenix • Solo Sikoa • Raquel Rodriguez • Roxanne Perez • Aleister Black And more..

@pwd_offl Literally the only way I would be even remotely interested in WWE. As of right now, I cannot stand what they did to IYO

Death of Iyo Sky. Rebirth of Io Shirai.

@IyosMoonsault I can't believe she went from this to a background character featured in more backstage segments than matches. Literally breaks my heart

I can confidently say iyo sky is the most badass wrestler of all time

@mrwrasslin8 @laknightingale We both know that's not going to happen. I'm sure triple h - just like – everyone else loves IYO's work. Problem is, he isn't calling the shots anymore. TKO tells him exactly how they want him to book the show and that's how he books it.

@laknightingale Only way to make up for this is to give them 30 minutes commercial free on raw after mania and allow them to have the match they want to have I never want to hear iyo is triple has favourite again

From beating Rhea and Bianca last year at Mania to being a cheerleader...I'm so sorry IYO. Spare a thought for Asuka. Asuka missed last year because she was injured. Since coming back, she's put in tremendous work and all she gets is another snub.

@shiniestphenex While I agree this match would be a guaranteed five-star spectacle, it just doesn't play in TKO's viral moment-based product. WWE is not the promotion for competitors whose strength is their in-ring ability

Not putting a feud like this on WrestleMania says it all about the rotten state of this company

@LorenaC82622177 @_Infinityspot_ It's not men vs women it's that WWE is not focused on the in-ring product, which is where these ladies excel. WWE is focused entirely on drama-filled storylines and celebrity cameos, which is not their forte

@_Infinityspot_ Es una vergüenza que tanto Asuka como Iyo no tenga un combate en Wrestlemania por que los que mandan se dedican hacer más combates para los hombres que para las mujeres vaya igualdad

Asuka came back from a year long injury, put many people over, and worked her butt off to make people care about her storyline with IYO and Kairi. But WWE said it wasn't good enough and cut her off the Mania card.

@JustAlyxCentral I don't know what to tell you guys, these women are in the wrong promotion. WWE is a reality TV program lightly seasoned with periodic in-ring action. They're amazing abilities are going to waste in a promotion whose fans by and large don't appreciate them

Yeah, I have a strong feeling that if WWE doesn’t announce Iyo Sky vs. Asuka for WrestleMania 42 tonight on Raw, fans are going to be furious. You’ve been building this story for a long time: Damage CTRL, Asuka abusing Kairi Sane, and the deep history between all three of them. This is long-term storytelling at its best. And now you’re telling fans they’re NOT good enough for WrestleMania? No one’s buying that. Especially when Night 2 only has six matches and clearly has room for another women’s match. Don’t use “time constraints” as an excuse when the space is right there. People are paying thousands of dollars to attend this show. The least you can do is deliver a match that deserves to be on the card. You have the story. You have the talent. You have the space. There’s no excuse. Just book the match.

@skarjay92 @evanwch Boundaries can be excessive. That is what she is talking about

@evanwch Oh no! People started respecting boundaries! The pure evil of it all!

I remember the first time I realized how everyday men must have felt during the “Me Too” movement I was on a tinder date when a guy asked permission to kiss me. It was the first time in my life anyone had ever done that and it completely turned me off It was also the first time I noticed how the politics of “Me Too” had seeped into my personal life, how men’s natural behavior had started to shift, shaped by fear “I don’t want to get in trouble,” he said, after noticing my reaction. “Have you seen the news?” This was right after Alyssa Milano asked people to reply “Me Too” if they had experienced sexual harassment or assault. The hashtag was everywhere. Suddenly unavoidable Women don’t understand how the excesses of Me Too have done REAL damage. They’ve made normal interactions between men and women impossible, they’ve made all men marked as “predators” for normal behavior, and it’s turned all women into helpless victims with no agency It’s time we #MuteMeToo

@Beyond_Salvage @IndependentMr70 @evanwch Right! As someone who had to stop drinking due to blacking out when I did, blacking out means you don't remember

@IndependentMr70 @evanwch Nobody believes the blackout part. He said. She said

This is what I’ve learned over the past few days on X: A woman cannot consent to sex with a man who: * is taller or bigger than her * has more money than her * is smarter than her * is more than a few years older than her (even if she is over 18) * has ever treated her poorly * has any kind of economic relationship to her These conditions create power imbalances that make consent impossible They imply physical, economic, or mental coercion that remove a woman’s ability to choose sex freely and willingly Got it

@englishinaz @ChopCountry Getting a TV deal doesn't make the product better.Take the $ WWE is pouring into promoting their programming – and they will once it's no longer of use to them to do so – and you'll have TNA right back at square one

@Jack370370681 @RashidaTlaib Irrelevant

@RashidaTlaib Swalwell.

Majority of Congress is silent.

@Damactrlszn @KingAjar @Bianca_Flair2 They aren't hating on Jade, they are raising the issue with the creative team. If agree that Iyo's booking isn't good, then why are you derailing the conversation by making it sound like Jade is being attacked? The comment you're replying to didn't even mention Jade

@KingAjar @Bianca_Flair2 Im not happy about Iyo's booking either but hating on and attacking Jade isn't gonna change or fix that. The issue is Rhiyo they have sacrificed Iyo to prop up Rhea cause she's so stale and boring on her own. Iyo doesn't and has never needed Rhea.

I see ppl are mad they don't got any botches to clip outta the Jade Cargill vs Iyo match from yesterday to push their stupid agendas 😂😂 It was a fine match and anyone who wants to act like it was bad is just a hater.
