Dutch Mantell had some thoughts on this match on AEW Rampage.

Former WWE manager Dutch Mantell talked about his take on the AEW Rampage match between Red Velvet and Willow Nightingale, stating that the latter should have won.

Willow Nightingale debuted on AEW Rampage this week against Red Velvet. While they both put up impressive performances, the latter hit the final Corkscrew kick to secure the win after a spectacular back-and-forth match.

Speaking on the latest episode of Sportskeeda's Smack Talk, Dutch Mantell expressed his opinion on the match. The former WWE manager stated that he thought Willow Nightingale should have picked up the win.

While he praised both of their performances, Mantell believed Willow looked more impressive during the match. He added that this week's Rampage was a great show throughout, pointing out that he doesn't usually praise any show as much.

"She was great. I actually thought that they let the wrong person win, that's what I thought. I think Red Velvet should have done the job for her. Cause she looked more impressive, and they did some really good stuff. Again, a great show all the way through, and I don't ever say that," said Dutch Mantell. (From 39:45-40:10)
