Former WWE personality Renee Paquette recently opened up on some of the booking decisions concerning the AEW women's division.

All Elite Wrestling has often been criticized for its booking of the women's division by both fans and critics. Britt Baker defeated former WWE Superstar Toni Storm in the semi-finals of the recently concluded Owen Hart Foundation Women's Tournament, and fans immediately took to social media to express their displeasure at the result.

Speaking on The Sessions podcast, Paquette said that having Storm and Ruby Soho lose to Baker in the tournament probably wasn't the right decision.

"My fingers not fully on the pulse with every little nuisance of things going on, but I think when Toni Storm didn’t go over Britt on their way to the tournament, and then to have Ruby also lose, it would be nice to have one of those women in that spot. Like I’m saying, Britt is f***ing great, there’s no denying that. I think she’s fantastic, I think she is head and shoulders at the top of that division, but to spread some of that love around as they’re bulking up that division, these women are stars."

Renee Paquette praised both Toni Storm and Ruby Soho for their skills and added that Kris Statlander is getting close to their levels as well.
