10 Things We Learned From Chris Jericho's AEW All Out Podcast
10. Who Picked AEW's Female Roster
If you're a fan of women like Britt Baker, Riho, Nyla Rose and more, then send those thank you letters to Brandi Rhodes and Kenny Omega. According to Jericho, they're the twosome responsible for all the female workers on AEW's books, and they were the ones who personally handpicked the roster.
That's cool to know.
It's also sweet to know that Omega has shown such a keen interest in the female division. It'd be so easy for him to sign a fat, juicy contract with the company and only concentrate on his own matches. That's not Kenny's style though; he's invested in AEW's future, and he wants to make sure that every division on the roster has strength in depth.
Hearing that Brandi is responsible is slightly less of a surprise, because she's been very outspoken in the media about the importance of a powerful women's division. The ranks could arguably do with a bit more depth outside the title situation, but that's something AEW can develop when they debut on TV.
