Seeing how Hunter only has so much time available and only puts on so many women's segments...does Nikki Bella and AJ Lee coming back hurt other women in segments or future storylines? Such as whatever they are doing with Bayley? Or when Bianca and Liv head back? Nice issue to have, by the way. Maybe a rotation to give time off.
Well, my hope is that it will motivate him to put more into the women's division. I think WWE has done a really good job on WWE Raw developing the women's division. Losing Liv Morgan hurt and they definitely had a lot of eggs in that basket, but I think they've done exceptionally well on that brand. On Smackdown, not so much. It could use a kick in the pants. The United States Title division is a rotating cast of the same people.
What ever happened to Matt Sydal? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen or heard of him wrestling anywhere. Is he still with AEW?
Sydal got surgery in the summer of 2024 to have three bones broken and refused, and then have his toes set into the joints. Sydal had dealt with pain and injuries for well over a decade and still wrestled at a high level. There are some online results indicating that he returned from his injury in July, but there's minimal by the way of media on it. I was told he's under AEW contract.
how long is aj lee’s new contract and is she full time or part time
I've not had a confirmation on the length of the deal. Full-time these days is way different than ten years ago. There are a certain number of dates worked into each deal. CM Punk isn't wrestling as often as a Dominik Mysterio, for example. So I don't believe it's a once every blue moon thing. Everything that I've heard indicated it isn't a one off.

I definitely want Matt Sydal back on AEW & ROH, but I'm also not wanting them to rush it after that big of a surgery. Hope he's doing well, and, if he's ready, I'd love to see him team up with JetSpeed in some 6 & 8 man tags.
