Allie and Q.T.

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

Leave the... memories?... alone?

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

Man got on a crash diet, got new hair, and a new car all for Allie and she straight up dumped him

Poor guy.

[Zone Was Wrong]

Wonder if this might spark a feud between Butcher and Blade vs Dustin and QT.

That's the natural path, QT needs to get revenge on Allie more than Brandi currently.

QT doesn't want to see the way it is to how it used to be.

[Mozenrath]

I can only sympathize so much with the guy fawning over a married woman.

[Rave]

Considering they dragged it out for far longer than it needed to be mostly because of COVID, it was pretty much a mercy killing.

was there a proper angle or just dropped

About where I am on it. The Nightmare Sisters bit was good while it lasted and seemed to help Brandi and Allie find their groove in the ring, but this whole bit with QT has been left hanging and picked at off and on where I don't think I'd be satisfied by any way they can lay out the motivations.

It was good to start, lost focus for reasons outside of anyone's control. It'll probably lead to a Nightmares vs. Butcher & Blade match, and that's fine, but I'm at the point where I won't mind if they don't bother to make the whole thing make sense.

More or less a proper angle. Kingston mentioned Blade needing to get his family back together a couple of times, then QT lost to Penta on Dark, and Allie joined back up with Butcher and Blade.

I think they had way bigger plans for this story, but COVID and Butcher and Blade pivoting into this stable with Eddie kind of forced them to change gears and get to the ending a little more quickly.

[Mozenrath]

I am a little puzzled by people acting like it's just over and done with now. Like, do you think QT is just going to disappear now?

You know they're prrrrrobably going to wrestle each other again, right? Right?

Therefore, the angle is not actually complete yet.

So you're saying this angle is about to get into...Full Gear?

[sunnytaker]

i see it ended as randomly and abruptly as it began.

let's follow the timeline here. i mean one week allie's the bunny with butcher and blade, next week she's in a jessica rabbit (cause she's the bunny) red dress eating an apple and swooning over QT. brandi immediately thinks it's a set up for dustin and QT at the hands of B&B (who were MJF's hirelings to take out cody so it fits). QT tries to make everyone accept allie, allie passive aggressively puts down bandi/dustin to boost QT's ego. B&B never pay any attention to the goings on. allie decides to prove herself by teaming with brandi. Brandi begins to act more heelish (get your bran-bran action figure!) making allie more of a face be default. they lose the tag tourney, allie vanishes (covid related IIRC). kingston reminds blade that he has a wife. QT fights pentagon and allie shows up as the bunny again to cost him the match. when logically you'd have her do it in a butcher/blade vs QT/dustin match.\ instead.

so allie has now turned twice for no apparent reason.

[The Prince That Was Promised]

I honestly don't give a shit. I'm just glad the Bunny is back with Butcher and The Blade. I can live with no explanation because I'm not interested in QT regardless. Less Allie with QT means less TV time for QT which I am fine with.

Other way around, the married woman was fawning over him.

[Rave]

Good explanation for the whole thing on Dark this week.

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

They explained it, we got good promos out of Allie, Eddie, Dustin and QT over it, and a good match to determine who could potentially be the new number one contenders for the belts in Butcher and Blade vs Nightmare Family, it works out.

[Deleted]

Sitting through two hours of squash matches to get 2 minutes of exposition. I wouldn’t call that great storytelling.

[Dr. Bolty, Disaster Enby]

So, the motivation is exactly what most of us called/theorized from the start, and Allie did a really good job making sure that it was simple. In some ways, "I did it because it was fun" is a cop-out given how long the angle lasted and the weird extra path it went down with the Nightmare Sisters, but it also makes sense and gives us a sense of what it means for her as a character in the future.

For sure, it's definitely better to me than "She did it because she was using QT to get closer to the Nightmare Family", which doesn't hold any water because B&B really didn't have anything to do with them outside of them wrestling Dustin and QT. It would have made a little bit more sense if Eddie was doggedly pursuing Cody for the TNT title, but that got dropped when Cody was targeted by the Dark Order and Eddie formed his own Family. Just having Allie doing it as a lark for herself really does establish her character so much better than her doing it just for Butcher and The Blade.
