10 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Jun 10)
2. Slow Down, People
There was a misstep in the Natural Nightmares' ongoing storyline with Allie last night, as it fast-forwarded when Brandi Rhodes completely no-sold the tandem's upcoming Tag Team Title shot, undercutting what was supposed to be a rousing speech from Dustin in the process.
It feels like the storyline is getting ahead of itself. Brandi has banned Allie from ringside, though the source of her rage was seemingly the former 'Bunny' showing up wearing a Nightmare Family jacket. Really?!
The title shot is justified as the Natural Nightmares have climbed the tag rankings through the wins and losses framework. Regardless, this felt like too big a leap forward for the short period of time, and would have benefited from a slower, more considerate escalation.
