AEW recently held the annual Double or Nothing pay-per-view in Las Vegas, and Toni Storm defended her AEW Women’s World Championship against Serena Deeb at the event. Toni Storm successfully defended the belt against Deeb, but it seems that not everyone was impressed by the title match.
Eric Bischoff recently talked about the AEW Women’s World Championship match on his 83 Weeks podcast, and he made it clear that he doesn’t think either Toni Storm or Serena Deeb are ready for prime time television.
“Neither one of them deserved to be in prime time yet. I’m so sick of hearing ‘Where the best wrestle.’ I get it, it’s a branding statement. I had ‘Where the big boys play,’ WWE has that ‘Then, now, forever’ or whatever. I get it, nothing wrong with it.
But man, you’re drawing attention and making an awful bold statement; you’ve got people out there that really shouldn’t be — aren’t ready yet for prime time television, more or less pay-per-view.
That match was horrible, and Toni Storm’s got a great character, she really does, she’s got a handle on her character. She has a lot of potential, but she is not ready for a match like this.”
