Kris Statlander comments on the state of the AEW women's division.
The AEW women's division has continued to grow at a rapid rate in recent years, with the signing of Mercedes Mone standing out as an important moment for the companies women's roster. Kris Statlander knows all about Mone, as she will be challenging her for the AEW TBS Championship at AEW Full Gear later this month.
While speaking to Ring The Belle in a recent interview, Kris Statlander spoke on the state of the AEW women's division.
“Obviously, it's amazing. We’re getting multiple matches a show. I think it’s because we are, so many women are just continuing to step up their game on a consistent basis and try so hard and we have so much to prove all of the time, but we are proving it. We are showing that we are one of the most exciting parts of every show that we are a part of. It’s very humbling and honoring to be a part of it and to constantly be, no, this is what you want to watch. There’s so much going on and I’m thankful to be a part of it in any amount. There’s so many people that I have never worked with and that I haven’t wrestled that I want to wrestle. I feel like that just keeps me wanting to keep working on myself and improving and stepping up my game all the day so people don’t just see me and think I’m a one trick pony. I’m gonna keep changing everything I do and keep improving myself. I want to put on great matches with everyone that I can. There’s so many girls that I haven’t wrestled and I have to beat up every single one of them as soon as possible, I don’t know what we’re waiting for.”
While Statlander will be challenging for the championship at Full Gear, she is a previous TBS title holder.
Elsewhere in the same interview, Statlander reflected on her split thumbtacks spot. You can read more about that here.
