Hikaru Shida is amazing [Rampage Spoilers] (self.squaredcircle)

I didn’t realize how much I missed Shida being on TV. She can have a great match with anyone, as evidenced by her match tonight against Marina Shafir. Obviously “the problem” has some growing to do, but I’m pretty sure I just saw her best match thanks almost exclusively to Shida. I’d live to have Hikaru in either belt chase, and the sooner the better. What do you think? Where would she best be used?

Tony has no idea how to book Shida even though she’s probably top 3 most talented women on the roster.

It could also be that Hayter’s injury threw off what plans they had but it really seems Tony is stuck on DMD / Hayter being the people against The Outcast.

I’m not opposed to Toni Storm with the belt. She’s been a breath of fresh air with her interviews and overall reign so far, but there’s just no other feud given any time to develop when really Shida deserves to top star booking too.

I don't know what they think they are doing with the women's division. It was desolate at the start, then started showing some real promise with fresh stars and standbys starting to really stretch their legs, and then we had injuries and drama, and we are practically back where we started. The Outcasts are doing fine, I guess, but they could really be doing more. Stat being back is huge. For her faults and too-long title run, Jade was really hitting her stride as a performer. The pieces are there, just fucking put it together!

Her title reign where she was barely on TV was frustrating. But she's always been great to watch. Also pretty difficult to build up momentum for the women when they're relegated to 1 match on every TV show. The YouTube shows (Dark/Dark Elevation) were the only places that would have multiple women's matches. Definitely still feels like they're an afterthought when it comes to the booking.
