She really needs to make an adjustment with her presentation, from the theme to the gear to the character portrayal

I just dont understand how she came off as more natural of a character in 2015 on NXT than she does almost 10 years later in AEW
Same reason wrestlers leave WWE and all of a sudden expose themselves as complete jackasses

WWE has the pedigree to minimize everything you suck at, turn everything you're good at into great, coach indy instincts out of you if they didn't make you, and do it all consistently week in & week out for years. They already knew all you know now in 2024 a decade ago and made a plan for her

There's no plan and the one they had, that writer, has no idea wtf she's doing and in way over her head. That interview she did sealed that. And that along with Mercedes the person thinking people were cheering for her and not Sasha Banks because horny nikkas on Twitter got a hold of her and that spot in Mandalorian has lead her astray. Nothing but duds since she left but at least she's getting paid

Highly respected and unbiased podcast “wrestling republic” doesn’t think Mercedes AEW run has been good.

Seems like every time her finisher comes across iffy, it's always the other person's fault for not selling it properly

That's the risk you take employing a move that requires so much input from your opponent

Her move is an attempt at one of those Japanese type moves that requires a ton of effort from both the wrestler and their opponent
