Aubrey Edwards

If you're not yelling at the refs, then something is probably wrong.

Somewhere Aubrey Edwards is shaking her finger at me saying, Rachel.

Jose asking who you have as the MVP of the league this year.

Asia Wilson.

[laughs]

But when it's Aubrey, and they have to like, like, "Aubrey Edwards, the referee, has just lost control of this match," it's not her fault.

You booked it as a tornado tag, and you didn't actually say that it was, but it is.

Uh, I, I, listen, you, there are fewer things, there are very few things that make me happier on my birthday week than Toe Leona running full steam and being caught by a house call.

He's got the national title.

And, of course, Aubrey Edwards is here representing AEW as the referee, but she's been appearing as a referee for CMLO for the last couple of months.

This one has a lot of history involved.

You get Balador, who started off strong.

We get the neutralizer to Hedgesero, the Ricola bomb to ZSJ.

Hedgesero then hits a spiking head scissors to Claudio, but Claudio kicks out at 2.5.

But then Hedgesero is able to wrap Claudio up, trapping his limbs in this great submission, very Zack Sabre Jr. as submission, as Claudio has no choice but to give the verbal submission to Aubrey Edwards here.

And Hedgesero retains his position.

This is how less successful ballet is than wrestling.

You break out of wrestling into movies, okay? One of AEW's top referees, Aubrey Edwards, broke into being a wrestling referee out of ballet, right? That's the tier system,

right? 14 and a half minutes.

Before we've even started talking about Star Trek.

Hayter comes back with a tiger feint kick in the corner, springboard missile dropkick, and then we see a knee strike by Cross, German by Hayter, and a sliding knee, and then it's the uranage backbreaker.

When Megan Bayne appears and she gets on the apron, she tries to enter the ring, and Aubrey Edwards is stopping her as Cross grabs a pipe and nails Jamie Hayter, leading to a jackhammer and a Cross victory.

And Windsor runs out with a table leg.

Jack Perry's gotta link up with these, with these girls, like the table leg here, and chases them away.

Very cool.

Now, you look at, like, right now, you're seeing a lot more, like, female referees in the business on the WWE side, you know, AEW, you know, Aubrey Edwards and everything.

How do you feel seeing, like, more female referees getting an opportunity?

I love it.
