Jesus Christ what is Chelsea Green's gimmick?

She's... a jilted bride? Zombie?

I don't know what the hell

Jerry Lynn is the reason people liked Rob van Dam and thought he could work. He's a miracle worker.

I honestly thought Daniels would push Lynn too far, Jerry would hit the cradle/Gotch piledriver and Amell would cover for the win.

Jilted/crazy bride. More accurately, that was her gimmick in TNA which is where she got noticed.

Basically she got stood up at the altar or something like that and that sort of broke her mind, if I recall the story correctly.

She's also got a split personality thing going, I guess, based on the commentary.

I'm into watching a match where people have personalities and gimmicks beyond "i'm the best at wrestling" though.

A direct line can be drawn between Jerry Lynn and Christopher Daniels in that they could work with anyone and it was their opponents who got most of the credit through them.

Again, in TNA that was the gimmick, and I think she's parlayed it into a Foley thing where she has multiple personalities/personas once the Hardys scared Anthem into letting TNA wrestlers use their gimmicks anywhere.

Yeah, from what I've seen she's got a basic fan favorite Chelsea Green generic character that snaps into the crazed bride Laurel Van Ness thing.

I'm kind of spamming the thread at this point but why did Chelsea Green spank herself if she wasn't even going to do a butt-based attack? Is one of her personalities a 1999 WWF woman wrestler?

Tessa Blanchard just looks really solid. Decent wrestling and the frame to throw around smaller wrestlers without getting stuck in a "giant" gimmick.

edit: it creeps me out how much Chelsea Green looks like Peyton Royce.

Also it seems to me that every time I see Tessa she's getting bigger - and I watch Impact somewhat regularly.

I can't look at Chelsea Green because it reminds me too much of some early 2000s edgy indie, the name lost to time, that had a fake von Erich valet whose gimmick was the entire match the wrestler she was valeting had to stop her from trying to kill herself at ringside.

It's good to see women wrestlers in the US, actually catch each other.

Only just noticed that Don had to go take a leak during this match. Honestly, Tenille's been pretty good.

Also odd but cool to see the TGI's logo on the ring skirt. Like, that weirdly adds to the big time feel, because it's a legit brand to have sponsoring something like this.

Ahahahahahahaha, OK, I want wrestlers to always just scream "SCREW YOU!" before hurling themselves into the ringpost full-speed.

One thing I liked from Britt Baker earlier was when she kept her arm around the other wrestler's neck for the full slingblade. That move looks so goofy when they let go super-early.
