Maybe it was nerves. Maybe it was the fact she wasn’t wearing her typical facepaint. But Cami Fields looked out of sorts in her match against Bayley Monday night. It wasn’t Jackie Gayda bad, but it definitely was noticeable.

This was the second time that Bayley has faced a female jobber who looked less than comfortable in the ring, forcing the Huggable One to cover up the mistakes and hold the match together, winning in short order. It could be that playing heel is tougher and requires more ability, but the women losing to Nia Jax haven’t looked nearly as bad bouncing off of her.

Regardless, this sort of thing shouldn’t keep happening. It’s great to give women on the roster wins like this occasionally, and it’s great that local talent get exposure like this too, but please make sure they can handle the workload first.
