I feel like both AEW/ROH, and WWE/AAA should both be linked together as rosters. Like AAA should be a roster on the WWE page, and ROH should be a roster on the AEW page.

I've had my eye on Sol Ruca for a bit. I've been keeping track since the first match I saw her in, maybe July of 2024... She's become my favorite wrestler now. She's undeniably very pretty, but it's her athleticism and effortlessly cool surfer persona that truly elevates her to a pivotal figure in modern women's wrestling. And the fact that she's not even at the peak of her career just makes her all the more impressive. And that finisher, man!

While Sol Ruca has won me over after a bit, I maintain that Brock Lesnar remains the greatest of all time. That will never change.
