9. Sneaky Tactics
Rosemary had the perfect opportunity to bring back Su Yung, and get exactly what she wanted - a potential ally to fend off Havok and Father James Mitchell. Knowing what those two are like though, 'The Demon Assassin' used some sneaky tactics to prevent either of them from getting involved in their 'friendly exhibition' later in the evening.
Firstly, she trapped Mitchell in a room backstage. This part alone was a hoot to watch. Taya Valkyrie was attempting to gain Rosemary's help with her Jordynne Grace situation next week, while James came sauntering along listening to music, having the time of his life. It's a small detail, but it's nothing you would expect to see from the demonic manager. Secondly, Rosemary laid out Havok as she attempted to free Mitchell from the confines of the room.
These are two minor things, of course, however, they added a lot to the match between Rosemary and Susie. Had they just not gotten involved in some capacity for no reason at all, it would've been deflating. Having 'The Demon Assassin' take care of both of them adds an extra bit of panache to what ended up being a major chapter in this long, long rivalry.
