Maria Kanellis: I Think Right Now Is Really One Of The Best Times I’ve Seen The AEW Women’s Division

Maria Kanellis is now in AEW.

Maria Kanellis currently takes charge with Women’s Wrestling Army and was a huge part of Ring of Honor’s women’s division during its resurgence in the summer of 2021. Previously, she said she had spoken to Tony Khan regarding the women’s division in ROH underneath Tony’s leadership but without a TV deal currently, she says that all of her talks with Tony recently have been about The Kingdom joining AEW. Maria Recently spoke to Just Alyx about this.

So we’ve talked in the past about the ROH women’s division and, because there’s no real path moving forward in terms of knowing if there is gonna be a TV or not, we don’t really talk about that anymore, as far as what we’ve been doing on AEW, it’s very much tag team wrestling focused. My goal right now is getting tag team gold on The Kingdom. That’s my main focus. So I don’t really think about anything else because it’s really important to be successful as a tag team.

Maria continued by speaking about the growth of AEW’s Women’s division.

Well, when any division starts you really don’t know how they’re gonna blend and they have tons of their own self-made stars, you know? Lots of in-house AEW brand exclusive stars. And I think that’s incredible. They have such a strong women’s division and I think they’re starting to really find their groove. Everybody from new faces like Jade Cargill and veterans like Toni Storm. These stories are starting to come out, and it takes time to get there. It takes time to build. I think right now is really one of the best times I’ve seen the AEW women’s division.
