Freddie Prinze Jr. discussed the AEW women’s division on this week’s Wrestling with Freddie podcast from iHeart Media’s My Cultra Network. The former WWE creative writer thinks the division lacks depth.
“They have to start it by signing a bunch of these [recently released] women, but what if AEW do a women’s division, and gave it an hour and a half, or gave it the full two hours on one of their nights?” Prinze Jr. offered.
Home Alone actor, Macaulay Culkin, chimed in and agreed.
“Yeah, I think that’s one of their flaws. Otherwise, I think they’re a cool company. I dig what they do.” Culkin said. “Before, when there were just five-minute matches, women’s wrestling was a joke, even when I was first watching with Rockin’ Robin and stuff like that. It was like, that was your pee break. There wasn’t really a lot going on. I think that kind of stigma stuck for a while. Until you actually started letting some of these women cut loose and actually do some things. Now, you know, it’s not crazy for them to headline WrestleMania or to close the show at Survivor Series.”
