10 Times The AEW Locker Room Must Have Been VERY Awkward

10. Those Thunderstorm Creative Meetings

Quick caveat: there's a lot in the way of second-hand speculation here, so consider this list a bit of gossipy, speculative fun.

As has been established, by Joe Lanza of Voices of Wrestling, Britt Baker and Thunder Rosa are "basically mortal enemies at this point".

This must make for a phenomenally awkward backstage atmosphere at all times, since their feud has dragged on longer than Lanny Poffo's cack.

Wouldn't it be a good idea not to prolong an awkward, tense feud for nearly two calendar years between two performers who resent the very sight of one another? It's not as if the matches are particularly great. Their Lights Out match was tremendous, but they've worked stiff and sloppy tags and rushed plunder matches ever since, as if they can't wait to get the f*ck out of the ring.

Baker can't help herself but throw various digs at Rosa's expense, too, which has only exacerbated the situation. Baker sh*ts on Rosa's promos as she's cutting them and openly mocks her lack of professionalism. How does this sort of thing even get pitched?

"I'm going to call you worse than sh*t, and you're going to stand there and roll your eyes. Deal?"

It's funny as f*ck, but Christ. Khan has asked for this trouble just as much as Rosa has asked for the verbal receipts. Rosa's conduct has verged on the disgraceful, but she is being taunted every single week. It's a volatile situation and has resulted in an overlong programme between two heels.

What is this: a Triple H "black and gold" feud?
