This is shaping up to be the Terry Funk tribute match we didn't get on Friday night.

UK loves violence like this.
 
I had a feeling you would be pissed. LOL
Her run in AEW has been shit, but I think for the moment, the right call was to put Saraya over in front of that crowd.
She can then drop it at the next PPV.

The thing is she hasn't done anything to deserve to be put over in front of her home crowd. What she did long ago was in WWE not AEW. Saraya's AEW run has been garbage. She barely wrestles yet you give her that win.

Agreed, but an event this big is about capturing moments and although Shida winning the match is the right call, it would not have gotten the same reaction from the crowd.

You also want to show other wrestling stars that you might want to court in the future, like Mercedes Mone, that you are capable of creating big moments and letting wrestlers have them.

Transitional champs are a part of the game. Toni losing the title last month was the catalyst for her character change and Saraya's face turn. You also have a reason to put Shida on the card, and Shida got her moment winning the championship in front of the fans this time.
