>gets flanderized to the point where her gimmick has turned into her just making sex jokes randomly while referring to genitalia
AEW caters to shoot retards

>>18057184 (OP)
She's okay to me. Too bad she's gonna job to Mercedes hogan.

>>18057184 (OP)
Alright but what even is the gimmick besides black and white filter sometimes and her sounding like a retard

>>18057190
She is attempting to imitate the golden age women of the '30s and '40s, such as Jean Arthur and Claudette Colbert, in an exaggerated, satirical, and somewhat lesbianized fashion chic.

>>18057188
I love Toni and the Timeless character but they've gotten so lazy with her booking and writing since the Hollywood ending. Probably because of the exact reason you're mentioning. It's full speed ahead with Mercedes Hogan
>>18057190
She has a great fleshed out character before all across her story with Mariah May. She had lost the title and unraveled to the point of becoming delusional and believing she was some golden age Hollywood star. Everyone around her called her crazy. Then Mariah May came along pretending to be a super fan of hers and fed into her delusions and everything that happened from there. The overtly sexual side of her character stemmed from a bunch of tongue in cheek nods to old Hollywood type things like key parties and prostitution etc. But it was just a side part of her actual character and the rivalries she was having. The overarching story with May kept her character grounded too so even as ridiculous as it got, it never got too goofy
Now that story is done and her booking and writing has fallen off a cliff. Every other word out of her mouth is some pointless sex joke or vaginal reference and it means nothing but a cheap laugh. Was that way through her feud with Megan Bayne and has only continued on since

>>18057184 (OP)
she had such range and depth with mariah to play off of, but now its all "now look it here missy, (sexual innuendo)"

>>18057184 (OP)
She's so overrated

>>18057184 (OP)
Seethe

>>18057184 (OP)
She's Gal Venis

>>18057292
The Tit Galboski?

>>18057184 (OP)
What her haters continue to fail to realize is that she just knows this business is about having fun and drawing attention doing so
This is why she has excelled so much farther than all her peers. They'll keep working harder while all she'll have to do is cut a zany promo and her career placement/annual salary from TK is eternally comfy

>>18057329
>her haters
Except I'm one of the biggest fans you'll find of her character and the story she just spent the last 2 years on. Criticizing how lazily they've handled her character since March isn't being a hater just because you want to be dismissive to that criticism. The fact that she's about to get buried by Mercedes isn't going to help matters at all

>>18057377
You're not allowed to criticize anything on this board or some retard will accuse you of being the enemy

>>18057377
I'm not even certain Mercedes is going to win, but she's not going to be 'buried'. Toni has won and lost the women's world title 3 other times and come back. She'll be fine ... TK isn't done with her.

>>18057184 (OP)
Flat chicks are literally invisible.
She might as well be a 4 foot man.

>>18057184 (OP)
if she jumped ship to the fed how long would it take for paul to put the strap on her?

>>18057184 (OP)
Timeless Toni Storm is shoot a vehicle for RJ City's brand of comedy.

>>18057184 (OP)
It was flanderized in the first month. What'd you mean 'gets'?

the gimmick was always shit, it just seemed entertaining at first because it was different and no one else in the company has any personality.

>>18057190
classic film noir femme fatale

>>18057405
You don't rank for her to care what you think, she's married and gets dicked up by better than you every night

>>18057450
>gets dicked up by better than you every night
the absolute state of esl cuckold enjoyers

>>18057450
Are you retarded?

>>18057457
>>18057464
lmao the seethe

>>18057393
Sadly the truth

>>18057400
I am certain Mercedes will win and the fact that it's so blatantly obvious, the same way it's been when everyone else has been fed to her, is why it feels like a burial to me. Even if it's a competitive match it's pointless because we all know the ending. Mercedes is winning it and she's not going to lose for a very long time. The best bet for Toni going forward, which it seems they've already set the pieces up for, is for her and Mina to become inaugural women's tag champs

>>18057477
>writes esl gibberish
>claims the confused replies are seething

>>18057184 (OP)
Mina and Mariah getting replaced with Mina and fat flat Toni Hogan is the biggest downgrade in history. It's pathetic that Toni needs to have an actually attractive women to leech off even more than she needs to always go over. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I hope Botcha Skanks buries her down to the center of the Earth.

>>18057636
If that's ESL to you, you might be ESL

>I'm a girl but I talk about SEX and make jokes about my VAGINA xD
This would have been a daring gimmick... 110 years ago.

>>18057184 (OP)
Lawson > Family Mart > 7/11

>>18057184 (OP)
they ruined toni storm after he lost to mariah and returned as timeless again, it wouldve been better if she evolved to something else. they had a second chance in the hollywood ending, that had to be the end of the timeless character.

now they are stuck with timeless toni and no feud.

that's what happens when you have a basedmale faggot autist with no real world experience in charge of booking.

>>18057406
If he did it the first night she was there he'd be entirely justified. Thought the same with May coming over. I get taking time with it and building the moment up though

>>18057413
For better and worse this is true. When RJ was working along WITH Tony Khan on it towards the start and through the story with Mariah it worked. Because that type of stuff would be in much smaller doses and it'd be an extra flare to an otherwise genuine promo. Now she just sits there prattling off innuendos and double entendres left and right and it grows grating

>>18057858
>, it wouldve been better if she evolved to something else
I disagree. I think the Timeless character still has so much more legs to it. She's a woman who's deluded into thinking she's an old time Hollywood actress. She could play different roles each month for a decade and still not run out of material. Plus looking at the Hollywood Ending and the how the finish was that perfect full circle moment of Toni getting her revenge on Mariah the same way she turned heel on her they needed to keep that same character intact if for nothing else that moment alone

>>18057669
>gets dicked up by better than you every night
yea very nice "english"

>>18057223
This is too complicated to read for edrones anon. Autisms a bitch

>>18057950
To be fair I GMS'ed a bit of it and didn't explain it overly well but there used to be way more meat on the character's bones

>>18057920
she is playing the same role every month, the old time hollywood actress.

>>18057184 (OP)
Does being reminded of genitalia you no longer have upset you?

>>18057292
She wants to be Anna Nicole Smith but lacks the boobage and Amazonian size, in fact vince should had hired her, maybe she would be alive today.

>>18057998
Heading into All In last year with Mariah she had that other look going on after she came back from Mariah's heel turn attack with the bodysuit and slicked hair. She did the Rocky thing for one ppv. Stuff like that. Of course she could lean into them more depending on the feud but there's a lot of mileage to pull from with the gimmick

>>18058012
>She wants to be Anna Nicole Smith but lacks the boobage and Amazonian size
This was the direction I thought Mariah May should have gone if she stayed in AEW. It's not entirely far off from what she's doing in NXT so far even if that's more Sabrina Carpenter inspired

>>18058012
anna nicole smith was just an ironic 90s marilyn monroe.

>>18058087
This lol. She was terrible. Fatty Poopoo tier,

>>18057190

So it begins. Trannies are slowly turning on her to justify Mercedes burying her lmao

>>18058031
Nah, Mariah May was Marilyn Monroe since the beginning.

>>18058087
>>18058116
>zoomers dont know how Anna, Carmen Electra and Pamela Anderson were huge in the 90's

>>18057188
Toni's at the point where she can drop the belt to Mercedes and her credibility will be completely unharmed.

>>18058339
people said the same thing about mcintyre

>>18057184 (OP)
She seems to really enjoy the character at least. She has the opportunity to return to just being regular Toni Storm again but seems to have turned it down in favor of continuing the gimmick.

>>18058157
Fucking wild to see. Separates the actual AEW fans from the console warring aewtists
>>18058339
Thank god for this. I think she'll be alright coming out of it but it doesn't make it any less shitty that it's happening
>>18059365
And his is. He can come back tomorrow and if they book him right no one would blink an eye at him challenging for either world title

>>18057184 (OP)
Based

>>18059394
She does and I'm more than happy for her for that. I love the character too which is why I even pointed this out in the first place. Because they've been doing it such a huge disservice since her story with Mariah May ended. It feels like she's been placed in that same lameduck champion position May was booked in while she was champion. Because everyone knows what's coming next and we're just biding our time and waiting until she loses the belt

this gimmick was never good it was different

She's basically the female Mick Foley, multiple characters and does crazy shit.

>>18057184 (OP)
Tina Khan is a shitty booker. Breaking news.

>>18060816
triple h cant book matches

E-chad here
I don't watch GayEW but somehow I came across this clip and it made me kek
Was this a rare based moment they had on commentary, or do they normally say shit like this? It almost tempted me to start watching a little bit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovBw1WFa5CY

>>18057184 (OP)
More like fumblized

>>18057184 (OP)
Toni was carried by Blake Monroe. that much is clear at this point.

>>18061095
I don't know if I'd say it was carried as much as her character was for sure at its best with her around. They played off of each other brilliantly, whether that was while they were together or feuding. Like others pointed out it added a depth to Toni's entire act that's been missing ever since. Their chemistry was great and both really benefited from everything they did with the other. Even though it was obviously Toni's feud with her being the babyface and wining the final match it feels like a double Michaels scenario

>>18061120
>double Michaels
you can't be a Michaels while wrestling in a minor league fed like aew anon

>>18061147
Kek I'll grant you that if you meet me in the middle as their story being the best thing AEW has ever put out so at the very least they're the only two Michaelseses of AEW

>>18061162
nigga the story was dumb as fuck. why did Toni Storm come back and pretend to have amnesia or whatever the fuck it was? Blake being hot was the only good thing about it.

>>18061167
The reasoning around that part was always a little weird. It is still AEW kek. But that heel turn

>>18061179
>But that heel turn
you mean Blake's part. like I said, Toni hot carried.

>>18061213
You don't have to sell it to me. I'm a Mariah May/Blake Monroe fan more than anything else here so I'm right there with you. I just appreciate the work those two did with each other. It always takes two

I still love her

>>18057184 (OP)
It truly does.

>>18061095
Mariah was the only reason anyone cared about Toni.

>>18057184 (OP)
yup

>>18057190
There’s really not much else to it besides that

>>18058339
Then who does she feud with? Their women’s division sucks

>>18057184 (OP)
That's a man

>>18057184 (OP)
FACTS

>>18063740
Don't worry anon. They'll make her a... tag team champion

No refunds for Mercedes lmao

>>18063742
no way

>>18057405
It's got one perk though.
Women with big tits get nervous when they hug. Flat chested women don't. In fact they hug your tighter.

>>18057190
1930s goonbait

Aewtists are such poor judges of quality, you really can’t take anything they say seriously. Toni’s gimmick is NXT tier.

>>18057184 (OP)
She never understood her own gimmick anyway. Letting RJ write an All About Eve wrestling plot worked but Tony and Toni are completely clueless on what they can even do.

>>18061095
they carried each other. neither one matters without the other's presence

>>18057184 (OP)
sad but true
