I'm not here to start an argument about whether or not AEW is diverse or not. Nor am I here to discuss whether or not Swole is any good in the ring. Can we all agree that the name "Big Swole" is stupid name for a 5'5" 150 lbs. woman?

I've been trying real hard not to comment on this, but I'm in a mood this morning.
Firstly, yes it is a ridiculous name. When I heard the name, sight unseen, I thought of a dude who looks like Ice Train from WCW (which would have been awesome). Or even the ORIGINAL "Big Swoll" from WCW, who actually wasn't that "Swoll" by wrestler standards either. Nope, little woman.
This lady has a real tepid argument at best. Seems like she wants a built in excuse for the company just not wanting to do business with her anymore. I'm not sure how anyone can look at the leadership in AEW, the talent featured on TV, and the positions they are in and say there's a "diversity problem". And of course when you fire off on somebody on social media, expect to get fired back on. I can't figure out why so many people think they can take shots all day but you're "bullying them" when you shoot back.

All I have to add is that somebody badly needs to take Twitter away from the people running this company. Every day it’s something and it’s just getting weirder.

It is as stupid as calling a very large man "Tiny" or a bald man "Curly". To me it is not a great name, but it is not horrible. I think of it as more a cute nickname.
As far as what she may or may not have done on social media, I have no clue as I am off all of it these days.

I think the name Big Swole was supposed to be reflection of her personality or attitude? At any rate, neither side should be posting on social media. It's one of the biggest mistakes people make is posting for venting grievances, hurt, etc. As much "between the lines" and unknown history behind the scenes, one can not simply convey their feelings in a simple tweet and not expect some backlash. She did go on a podcast and explain some of the meanings, but it really sounds like sour grapes of not being honest, expectations not being met & miscommunication. She should just move on, not saying anymore about it now.
