She was trained by Barnett, but surprises me that she's allowed to show up at GCW.

Good to see more and more talent be able to dabble outside of WWE since scummy Vince has moved on.

Apparently she might not be the last WWE announcement for The Collective.

It's a long way removed from 6-7 years ago when dirtsheets would report WWE trying to lock out indies from venues to stop them piggy backing on WM weekend. It makes me really happy - having all these other events is only good for WWE. It creates Christmas for wrestling fans, it draws in fans from all over the world, and with 1-2 exceptions, none of the indies are going up against Wrestlemania, so it's all gravy for WWE.

And if you can loan out some talent who might not be on WM, and if the talent are keen to do it? Why not, it creates an even greater spectacle across the weekend.
 
it feels a bit like "you're not in our WM plans, you have our permission to do something else during that week".

Is that a bad thing though?
 

unsurprisingly, Vikingo stripped of the AAA Mega Heavyweight Championship. But now it's Alberto El Patron (Del Rio) vs an opponent TBA at Triplemania Monterrey at the end of April.

It's been 4.5 years since the AAA Megachampionship changed hands in the ring.

That's pre-COVID, that's very early days AEW, that's still the very bleak days of WWE. Crazy.
