AEW star Harley Cameron has quickly won over fans with her unique style and often hilarious promos. She had a recent feud with AEW TBS Champion Mercedes Mone that captivated fans and had a funny twist with Cameron mocking the champ via use of a Mone puppet.
On a recent episode of “Talk Is Jericho,” Cameron revealed that it was actually Mone’s idea to use the puppet after she found out that the AEW newcomer was a puppeteer.
“I posted a thing on Twitter being like, ‘Me and Earl are doing Cameo.’ I guess everyone at work was like, ‘You’re a puppeteer?’” Cameron told Chris Jericho. “It was Mercedes’ idea. I still remember when we spoke about it and she was like, ‘Could you ever do a puppet of me?’ It’s so funny she said it because the moment she said it, I was like, ‘No sh*t, I was literally thinking about doing this.’ I actually made the puppet. I bought the puppet base, but the hair and outfit, I have to give a shoutout to Chris, the seamstress here, he’s fantastic, he made the gear. I gave some of my old gear to him and he made her gear. We created Mini Mone ourselves and the people love it.”
Mone would end up defeating Cameron in their match at AEW Grand Slam Australia. The pair is scheduled, however, to team together on Saturday’s Collision against Athena and Julia Hart.
