    Chances are even if she was upset by the fallout from brawl out it has little to do with why she left. I have seen people leave jobs for similar reasons in the past so maybe.
    I wonder who’s saying AEW tried to keep her given her lack of experience. At this point I would think AEW would be wanting someone with more experience.

      Is she really that inexperienced? In terms of pro-wrestling merchandise pre AEW she was running probably the biggest game outside of WWE, and maybe NJPW.

        I don’t think she had any previous work experience in that position. It was probably a we just need to get up and running situation. I’m honestly surprised she was still filling the role.
