Let me do my AEW lack of diversity thread to see how it goes for Year 1 of contracted wrestlers

This is Private Party, a young up & coming dynamic, flashy tag team in the world's greatest tag division. AEW loves them so much they paired them w/ Matt Hardy to get the casuals to know who they are. And has been working ever since

lack of diversity

This is Scorpio Sky, one of the only 3, not even the DEMOGOD Jericho is part of the 20 win club on the AEW Roster, that's how much he is respected. He is a black veteran who just began his singles run in 2020

lack of diversity

This is Riho, The OG of 18-49 DEMO GODDESS status, the inaugural youngest AEW Women's World Champion in it's title belt history

lack of diversity

This is Santana & Ortiz, these are two of the more popular latino (Puerto Ricans) in the world. They have been featured on AEW weekly. Including on FyterFest where they were upset by the up & coming tag team Private Party

lack of diversity

This is our current badass AEW Women's World Champion Hikaru Shida, she's been on fire in 2020. With a singles record of 13-1.

lack of diversity

This is Big Swole, signed at the end of 2019, went from AEW Dark to has been featured on TV in slow burn to legit top 5 in the women's ranking in 2020, and has been killing it as fierce take no shit black female on television.

lack of diversity

This is Ricky Starks, thru the pandemic earned his buzz & debuted on TNT, the guy came in w/ under $4 to Jacksonville tapings, Tony saw him the first time in that match and signed him right away. He has an over .500 record on AEW Dark

lack of diversity

This is Lee Johnson, came in as QT student, no character, no vigs, nothing, just filler, b/c came thru their doors when the pandemic was closing businesses, they liked him so much they signed him at 22.

lack of diversity

This is the Lucha Bros, they inked a 3 year deal w/ AEW pre pandemic. They are main stays in championship pictures, could argue in getting Sky a title run to slow burn him to singles thru SCU. They missed the opportunity to make the Lucha Bros major draws early

lack of diversity

This is Nyla Rose, The first transgender woman to successfully defeat the former inaugural AEW Women's World Champion

lack of diversity

This is Sammy Guevara, one of the young up and comers on their roster. Humbled in 2020 thru past STUPID mistakes. Currently serving a suspension and lost his 2020 salary. The arrow was pointing to him being a major player.

lack of diversity

This is Sonny Kiss, another up & coming future champion, had his/hers (Sonny prefers either one) first championship match this past week, and kicked ass as one of the most diverse characters you've ever seen on wrestling television

lack of diversity

To the least extent your current TNT Champion is Cody, he characterized as the first face of AEW, people also categorize him as a white boy, but never include that he is also 1/2 Cuban American

but lack of diversity

the most RT'd thing on this thread is the Cody post.

Everything else was ignored.

people also didn't understand the tweet was acknowledging his nationality while giving a counterpoint that was universal w/ his race.

The first 4 words even said it.
