Willow Nightingale recently guested on Vickie Guerrero’s “Excuse Me” podcast, where the AEW wrestler gave her opinion on the current status of the women’s tag team division in the promotion and discussed where she’d like to see it progress to in the future.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
Willow Nightingale on having an official AEW women’s tag division: “We don’t necessarily have a tag championship. We have tag teams within our women’s division, but I think personally, working with Ruby, I think having there be an official tag division or some sort of physical goal to work towards, be it a championship or some kind of trophy or medal, because I know they had done the tag team tournament in the past, I think that would be a really awesome direction to take the women’s division in. I love the fact that we have two championships in the women’s division as is, with the AEW Women’s World Champion and the TBS Champion, but I think a tag championship would be really awesome because I’d love to continue working with Ruby and really kind of finding our own little groove as a tag. But I’ve wrestled Jade twice for the TBS Championship, and I think a third time’s the charm, maybe? Could be fun, personally. But those are kind of the things that when I go in and I try to think about my future, where I see myself going, but every day is a surprise at AEW, so we never know [laughs].”
On giving the women a physical goal to work toward: “I’m sure you know better than most people, working so closely with Nyla [Rose] and Marina [Shafir]. Having great matches is fun and fulfilling, but sometimes it feels a little bit like, where do we go from here? What’s the next step? Having that kind of direction, a very physical thing to look at and go, ‘That’s the direction,’ sometimes just helps put everything into perspective for everyone.”
