#2 Does AEW's Women's Division need something engaging to succeed?
'Nyla Rose vs. Riho' was an entertaining match to watch last night, as Riho became the first-ever AEW Women's World Champion to great fanfare.
However, the AEW Women's Division lacks a certain element in some form.
Riho as world champion quickly cuts off room for building up the 'chase', which is a term for situations where the babyface fights against a heel champion to win the gold. Additional conflicts are created in this way, which keeps the product fresh and entertaining.
While the male roster has a lot of well-known names to build up the division, the same cannot be said for AEW's female roster.
But this shouldn't be a huge problem unless the creative crew come up with fresh and original ways to spice up the Women's division, and while it is too early to tell at this point, the show's strengths primarily lie towards their main event scene so far.
