They should do okay, weird debut where nobody knew who they were aside. One good promo should help with that, like with the Dark Order.

Thinking about it, I imagine they don't really want Excalibur elaborating that much on people on a surprise debut, since they will hopefully have a promo or vignette next week or Dark or something.
Also, kinda glad Allie turned heel. I think she is fine as a face, but she was also kind of milquetoast. Beyond that, she is frankly one of the less impressive roster members at the moment, so the gimmick will probably do her some good on standing out.

JR: Blade and the Butcher? Excalibur: No, it's Butcher and the Blade. It is non-alphabetical order. ----- Bunny: Brandi! You brought Kong to cut my weave, I bring my two dads! I just pictured Tony Schiavone getting really excited that Paul Reiser & Greg Evigan are coming to AEW to only get real bummed out that she meant Braxton & his grandpa.Tony Schiavone My Two Dads Enthusiast is money.

Definitely needed more heels in it.

Wait! What! Exacilbur: That's Suzanne Somers! Tony: The Thighmaster Suzanne Somers to you! Excalibur: And Patrick Duffy!? And Christina Lakin. Cody! It's the cast of Step by Step.

Definitely would have been better if Excalibur had no clue who they were either but then recognized Allie, then give them a 90 second promo backstage after commercial and that’s that.

Happy go lucky Allie doesn't work without Rosemary, so a heel run is a welcome change of pace. You know what. I just reallized it was that dude who had that uwf i match with chris dickinson and the crowd chanted both these dads I also think aew should sign dickinson. Hell they should sign brody lee and tyler bateman too. ROH got to Bateman first, so he's off the table for now.

Excalibur killed this reveal for me. Very clunky and awkward call.
Good news is that they look awesome and I really wanna learn more about them.

I didn't like the debut in general. Coming out of the ring is some WWE type shit. Allie looked smoking hot though.

Excalibur: ITS THE BLADE! JR (And almost every fan): Who? Excalibur: ITS THE BLADE!
Well thanks for clearing that up
Seriously, either give us more information or just say you don’t know who they are but whoever they are, they’re causing serious damage to Cody
Will say though, don’t see enough monocles in wrestling

The debut was awful. Excalibur didn't help. For people crapping on JR I was in the same boat as him.
I do like that Allie went evil, and I really like that it's an unexpected twist in the Brandi/Allie storyline.
Brandi is a voodoo priestess thing now and can summon Kong whenever she wants, so instead of being all "good girl" about it, Allie was like "f*** it I'll bring in people of my own". Allie went evil to counter Brandi being evil. It's refreshing.
Just DO NOT let her go "Dark Allie" that shit was cringeworthy and exposed her inability to show range. She tried to look menacing and just looked constipated most of the time.
The debut was shit, but with the Dark Order proving all of us wrong, I'll wait til they get a promo/vignette package.
Y'know...something they should've had to begin with.

They didn't tell people Brock Lesnar was coming, and it would have been more of a squib if they had. Not that these guys are Lesnar, or Kane, who also got no vignettes but Bearer at least teased it prior, but I don't think it would have benefited them, outside of maybe hiding Allie's connection, which would immediately get blown by showing Allie's husband.

That was not good. Liked the footy chants from the crowd though. With JR on this one.
For one glorious moment I thought it was Baron Blade but it was just someone's Dad.
