The only thing that makes sense regarding AEW's booking is that the Elite are literally fucking Tony Khan. Anyone that isn't either blowing the boss or letting the boss dick them gets buried. Everything about Tony Khan screams faggot. In his 40's, rich, never had a girlfriend, they rainbow the fuck out for everything on AEW, he forces his stars to pose with "trans rights" posters. Literally everything about AEW makes sense if you understand that Tony Khan is using the roster as his own personal gay harem. It also makes sense that he has some of the most attractive female wrestlers on his roster and he keeps pushing Riho and Shida, who are unironically MtF trannies.
