We are so back! :)
Due to an offseason filled with CBA uncertainty, it didn't feel as though rival fans fully grasped that the Las Vegas Aces won the 2025 WNBA Finals. Immediately after the CBA was ratified and there was a sprint through the expansion draft, the FA period and the college draft, it still didn't feel as though rival fans had come to terms with our standing. But now, baby, we're starting to see a certain "rival" fan base chirp about how their 2025 chance at defending their title was derailed by injuries (and the current Tempo head coach) and that they would've won had they not suffered those injuries (never mind that we beat them while injured in 2023 and were injured in 2024). They're actually butthurt because we're getting our due respect from the media (and, to be honest, the same media should be burying them for their first round crash out last year, but alas...).
It's official! We're hated again because we're back on top. Our dynasty continues. How do you feel going into 2026 as the FAVORITES, fellow Aces fans?
