Effy booked Cameron for the Big Gay Brunch before COVID scuttled it, so I’m cautiously not doomsaying.

i mean she was on the road with cody and brandi during her wwe run, probably has a good relationship with them, she's choosing to return to wrestling which makes me think she's probably been training beforehand, a tag team tournament like this is a good place to give her a chance and see what they can do with her.

thus far, wait and see with AEW has not disappointed yet. although i am feeling very cautious by the direction of MJF's current storyline and really hope they pivot away from the presentation used today.

Also, she's paired with Nyla so Nyla can do most of the work.

I doubt Cameron will be with the company longterm. She's there for the tournament. she's the Captain New Japan to Nyla's Hiroshi Tanahashi.

Yeah, this week was super off. A few really good matches, but the lack of Excalibur was bad from the get-go, production seemed off, and a few of the matches were just really rough, specially the opener.

I enjoy FTR in the ring a lot, but I don't care much for their gimmick, and this week them getting to do a run-in exactly the same way as the last few weeks, and have a contract signing segment, was way too much.

Can't win 'em all, so I hope poo poo gets tightened up while recording next week's episode.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
I was very very underwhelmed by Warhorse here but im putting that down to commentary. Just awful.

Also if it turns out WWEs issues for these years is really just bad commentating and getting people in without Vince in their ear i wont be shocked.

If Cameron comes in and is actually good then more power to her. I won’t discount the possibility that she just never got trained very well in WWE since she came up through Tough Enough and then was a Funkadactyl and so was primarily envisioned as a valet.

Strange poo poo happens when people get out of WWE. Knees stop exploding. Promos stop sucking. The FTR suddenly have a personality. Zack Ryders return in gigantic hairy man form.

turn it all around

Pretty bland show this week. I don't know if it was bad, it just felt off. Lots of little botches here and there and just didn't feel like it was run the same as other weeks. Almost like they had a different show runner or director.

Or, it was just an off week. That'll happen.

what are you talking about, it's very important to dismiss people like Trent Barreta, who was even more of a nobody than Zack Ryder was in WWE
