Harley Cameron Says Being In AEW Blood & Guts Was ‘Surreal,’ Confirms Mini Mone Is Unhurt

Harley Cameron says that it was “surreal” being part of the first women’s AEW Blood & Guts match, and that she came out worse than Mini Mone did. Cameron was part of the match earlier this month and while her team didn’t come away with the win, Cameron is still proud of the match.

Cameron reflected on the bout in an interview with TV Insider. She also confirmed that Mini Mone came through unscathed. You can see highlights below:

On Mini Moné Escaping AEW Blood & Guts Without Injury:

“She actually left that match unharmed. She was more harmed a few weeks prior when she went face first into a cake. The cake incident was more of a recovery. She luckily didn’t take too much of a beating in the Blood & Guts. I unfortunately can’ t say the same.”

On Being Part Of the Match:

“Being in Blood & Guts was surreal, especially for myself with how new I am in my career. Honestly, I didn’t think I would have the opportunity. I was so happy and grateful to be a part of that. I was a part of history. The entire women’s locker room felt excited and honored to even have that opportunity. I definitely think we went in thinking we had something to prove. We just knew it was our time to show why we got the opportunity.

“I would say there was a strong sense of camaraderie and love, even between enemies at one point. For everybody because we just all felt no matter the outcome, we felt a sense of togetherness to have the opportunity to arise. We’re all very thankful for Tony Khan that we could showcase what we were able to do. I think we put on one hell of a show.”

On Being Focused On AEW As Opposed to Outside Opportunities:

“A hundred percent. A lot of people do have in their mind that perhaps wrestling could be a gateway to something else for them. For me, it’s reversed because I’ve had a very fruitful career in entertainment. I’ve seen that side of things. It’s not that I don’t proactively do it, but wrestling is not a stepping stone for me. Wrestling is the focus and the passion.

“I still actively get to perform in other industries. I’m always performing as a singer, actor, musician, and I do comedy. I get to do all that now. We’re really lucky we get to do external projects while working at AEW, which is one of the amazing things Tony lets us do. I think that’s why it’s very evident that my focus is on wrestling because I’ve done a lot of other stuff. It’s fun and I still enjoy it, but nothing makes me feel what wrestling does.”
