There is a loooooot of leeway I can give when English isn't your primary language, but good lord that was cringe. Not intentional heel cringe, either, just "this woman is dying in her own flop sweat" kind of cringe. Some people just aren't meant to cut promos. She was up a creek without a boat or a paddle But she did have a hat

I really want to root for Marina because of her background and I want to support Jewish wrestlers in general. But yeah, she's not good at all lol. There is a loooooot of leeway I can give when English isn't your primary language, but good lord that was cringe. Not intentional heel cringe, either, just "this woman is dying in her own flop sweat" kind of cringe. Some people just aren't meant to cut promos. She's been in the USA since she was five years old. I don't think it's a language barrier issue.

Marina "Gudda Gudda" Shafir I generally have no love for Pitchfork, but I'll always have a soft spot for them referring to Gudda Gudda as an "unbelievably shitty Plies sound-alike." Anyway, Shafir's promo sucked, much like her wrestling. She needs a lot more work.

I feel like to be a Brandi Rhodes, there has to be an omnipresent perception that she's in charge and going to be pushed to the moon at any second, in addition to being bad at things. I've always found the notion that Shafir is some kind of mega-pushed office darling totally laughable, because her push has amounted to losing a bunch while Bunny, Leyla Hirsch, Megan Bayne, and Penelope Ford were all injured.

Man, Toni deserved the belt just for getting a good match out of Marina.
But honestly though, stuff like this just makes me want to watch Elevation more. It's like AEW's NXT 2.0!

Why did they pair a manager with a hard time cutting promos with a wrestler who has a hard time cutting promos

She’s not entertaining to watch wrestle, she’s not good at cutting promos, she has nothing to draw your attention to her. I’m at a loss to think why Tony signed her
I think I got whiplash from the YOU KNOW ME/YOU DON’T KNOW ME bit

It's just stunning to me how much we as wrestling fans still have to suffer for a couple marketing decisions that the UFC made in 2013 to pander to their top draw by pretending her friends were big deals too. Ronda is every rapper who tries and use their star power to make their friends into big stars too and puts out a track where everyone gets a verse except for some reason it actually worked. Ronda = Eminem, DMX, Nelly, 50 Cent Ronda's friends = D12, Ruff Ryders, St. Lunatics, G-Unit

Maybe scripted promos could be a good thing?

I seriously don't get how this woman keeps getting so many chances. I hate to be jerk but she's not good at anything. At least in WWE I got it from a political standpoint as she's one of Ronda's MMA friends and she's Roddy's wife. However AEW keeps trying to make her a thing too for some reason even though there's like literally nothing there.
