    The stuff with her brother was crap, The Outkasts were… kinda cool, but Timeless Toni Storm quickly outgrew and overshadowed the group, Ruby got married and pregnant which took her off tv, and then Saraya recruited post-QTV Harley Cameron, and Harley started making everyone feel the wrath.

    You know what, I’m starting to think Saraya is one hell of a wingman. Wingwoman? Wingperson? Never mind, you get the point.

    Oh, and she also got the title win at Wembley. The reign after was meh, but the hometown lady took home gold on one hell of a stage.

    Overall, I’d say her AEW run was a net positive.

      I feel like Toni and Harley probably could’ve got themselves over on their own, but Saraya did speed up the process by providing them some TV time.

      Saraya didn’t have a bad run, but maybe a bland run? The Knight family connection and her off-screen boyfriend drama sours me on her a bit to begin with though.

        Toni for sure, she was already well established in AEW before Saraya was signed. Harley… maybe? I can’t say for sure.

      Definitely. It wasn’t the worse run, not the best, she got the title at Wembley, helped boost some stars, didn’t politic her way into something that would have turned to shit, was aware she wasn’t really needed and peaced out on seemingly good terms.

      There’s been a hell of a lot worse runs in wrestling. She didn’t do a ton, but she did good.

        That’s a good way to sum it up! Plus she can always come back if Tony doesn’t go crazy like he did with the Lucha Bros.

    I think she hinted in an interview with Booker T that she was interested in returning to WWE if the opportunity arises.

      She’s said both that, and that she wants to go away from wrestling to do ‘other things’ for a while, so who knows.

      I have no interest either way but I do wanna see if WWE would clear her or not now.

          I mean as long as she keeps herself safe in the ring, which it seems she can based on her AEW run, I couldn’t call it a bad thing. Whether she has a place on the roster or not can be debatable.
