Not much to say here, and that's damning for AEW's female ranks. This company has done a seriously woeful job of building this division, and that's why Nyla Rose is getting another go-around. Or, at least, she should. Hikaru Shida is as bland as they come.

Her time is up.

Shida is solid in-ring, but that's not enough to make people care about this belt. AEW should start revolving this entire division around personalities instead of ladies who don't grab you by the short n' curlies and demand your attention. Almost every female segment on Dynamite is skippable, and that's sad.

Remove Shida as champ, give the belt to Nyla and try to work in some NWA Women's Title integration for a title vs. title feud. That's perhaps the female roster's only chance.
