Today, some of the company’s women stars have been able to steal the show and get over with the fans so much so that it won’t be long before we start seeing women main event shows like in WWE.
It also seems like AEW EVP Kenny Omega has high hopes for the women’s division. He recently did an interview with Renee Paquette’s The Sessions podcast where he stated that he was inspired by Trish Stratus to try and help the women’s division.
“And it’s like, ‘No, you guys got to be careful because they’re [women stars] coming for you, and not only that, they deserve your spot,’” Omega said. “Now I feel that we have earned that trust. There are people we have to convince on the business end of things as well, that this is a proven thing, this can be successful, and that people want to watch it. We have proven that, yes, people will like it, people want to watch it and yes, it is good.”

Undoubtedly, women’s wrestling has evolved a lot in recent years, and while AEW has been playing catchup, they finally are in a place where women can take over.
