AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champion Harley Cameron has quickly crept into the hearts of fans by each having comedic timing and using puppets to bring a novel element to her character.
During her interview on “The Ariel Helwani Show,” Helwani compared her to WWE’s Chelsea Green, who can also be known for her comedic antics, much to Cameron’s delight.
“That is an enormous compliment. I’m a giant fan of her work,” she said.
She was then asked about where she draws her inspiration from, recalling that her early days in wrestling were about her character and finding herself.
“It wasn’t until I did RJ City’s show, ‘Hey EW!’ and just sort of had like an organic conversation,” Cameron claimed, adding how there was numerous back-and-forth banter during her appearance on the show and a few guitar playing from her, which caught the attention of one in every of her mentors, QT Marshall. “He’s like, ‘This, you, organically, I believe is entertaining.’ And he’s like, ‘There’s not many folks that, like there’s the old saying of ‘your wrestling persona needs to be you times a thousand,’ I do not think that works in every scenario,’ he said. ‘But I believe for you, it’s the proper avenue to go, since you’re a natural-born performer.'”
In hindsight, Cameron believes that her appearance on ‘Hey EW!’ allowed her to drive into herself a bit more and realize that leaning into her history as a performance artist is something that comes naturally to her.
