5 Ups & 5 Downs From AEW Rampage (Oct 14)

3. A Miss All-Round

Nyla Rose vs. Anna Jay A.S didn't have a prayer. AEW booked a five-minute match and plopped one of those pesky picture-in-picture ad breaks right in the middle of it. So, in other words, fans watching at home who didn't get to stay full screen saw approx two minutes of the thing.

Someone else probs should've been in that spot to take a beating from Rose too.

Then, post-match, Jade Cargill and pals ran out to try and reclaim the TBS Title from Nyla. Jade booted some hapless "security guards" (what do those folks guard - a children's soft play area?!) around, then watched on helplessly as Nyla, Vickie Guerrero and Marina Shafir slipped past to stand on the same entrance ramp.

Yep, this was one of those bullsh*t invisible forcefield moments that pro wrestling loves so much. There was nothing stopping Cargill and her Baddies from going after Nyla or the belt, so they all looked stupid. Also, and it's getting old asking this but...who is supposed to be the babyface here?
