"I like Scarlett, I think she's a great competitor. I think it's very important with our division—because a lot of our girls are newer, a lot of people maybe don't have such name recognition. I mean, even with me, I've been in the business for a long time, but not as a wrestler. So, it's very important that everybody gets their moments and their time so that people can get to know some of these girls."

What's next?

Brandi Rhodes and the rest of the AEW roster will now be preparing for the next upcoming AEW show, All Out. The event will be airing live on pay-per-view, B/R Live, and FiteTV on August 31st.
