It appeared to be business as usual this week as Aliyah and Jessi Kamea of the Robert Stone Brand found themselves on the losing side in another competitive tag team encounter - this time against Kayden Carter and Kacy Catanzaro. Also, is the two C's 450 splash/neckbreaker the best doubles finisher in the land?

Yet, as the dust settled on another tick in the 'L' column for Aliyah, something snapped. After Robert Stone's attempts to introduce his shoe into proceedings had failed her, Aliyah whooped the shoeless goofball around the squared-circle to the sheer delight of the CWC. Cries of 'you deserve it' and 'one more time' in the wake of a vicious boot to the back all but confirmed that there's something sweet in an Aliyah singles run on the black and gold brand.

But the fun didn't stop there. As Aliyah made her exit to rapturous applause, Franky Monet decided to take this moment to apparently recruit a stunned Kamea to her entourage. What this means for Stone is anyone's guess at this point, but this stale unit was in need of a refresh and a bright future now appears to be on the horizon for both women.
