The Huge Untapped Potential Of AEW's Anna Jay

This, at least to your writer and what he values in a worker, is the sign of a very good or very promising one. She can apply that inherently very good sense of physical timing elsewhere when her matches and arsenal get that bit longer, more expansive and more complicated.

You never want to go full cowboy hat, but professional wrestling is, was, and always will be a cosmetic business. Anna Jay's evident appeal in that department casts her, in AEW's strategic pursuit of the younger demographic, as the Jungle Boy of the Women's division. Her look, analysed through the lens of the entertainment industry, will see her do very well and be given every opportunity to do very well. But she's far more than that.

Anna Jay called herself the 'Star of the Show' in April. It's the sort of early persona a wrestler will experiment with before transitioning into something different and less gimmicky later in their professional career.

If Anna Jay continues to progress at this rate - she is 22 years old, at least a decade removed from the traditional wrestler's prime - it won't be a nickname.
