Session elements included a Q&A with former AEW Women’s World Champion Nyla Rose, a tutorial with renowned AEW makeup artist Stella Kae, and a mental health seminar with AEW Chief Legal Officer Megha Parekh, as well as a sweepstakes program and donation opportunities to support The George Floyd Memorial Fund and The Trevor Project.

Powell’s POV: I really like the idea of launching a service exclusively for female wrestling fans. Given everything we’ve learned as a result of the Speaking Out movement and just in knowing how some men treat women online in general, it’s a cool idea to give the ladies a place of their own to enjoy the product. I would love to hear from anyone who takes part in this to get a feel for whether it’s enjoyable and whether you find it to be worth the cost. Email me at dotnetjason@gmail.com.
Or…they could put on a good, old school logical wrestling show that always had a large female fanbase. This woke pandering BS just shows they’re clueless on yet another level.
