Kamille Talks NWA 74 Match Against Taya Valkyrie, Says It Was Overshadowed By EmPowerrr 2 Discussion
Kamille thinks that the discussion surrounding EmPowerrr 2 overshadowed her NWA 74 main event bout against Taya Valkyrie.
The NWA women’s division is currently being dominated by Kamille, who has held the NWA World Women’s Title for over 500+ days. Throughout her reign, Kamille has notched wins over women such as Chelsea Green, Allie Katch, and KiLynn King.
Kamille and Taya Valkyrie made history back at the NWA 74 pay-per-view, as the duo main evented the first night of the show in an epic World Women’s Title clash. Around that same time, Billy Corgan came out in various interviews and started discussing why the company wasn’t doing a second EmPowerrr event in 2022.
In a new interview with the Two Man Power Trip podcast, Kamille talked about the lack of an EmPowerrr event this year.
“I didn’t really think anything about it just because I show up and do my job and do as the boss says. That was just for last year, when he said there wasn’t going to be an Empower 2. I don’t think that he meant ever in the existence of [the company], I just think he meant for the last year he wasn’t ready to put it together or the logistics of it weren’t coming together, so. I’m not involved in that part of the business, so I don’t really pay attention to it. I just show up and do my job. But I do think Empower, the first one, was such a great event and the fans loved it, us wrestlers we loved it. So I definitely think it’s gonna happen again, it’s just getting all of the logistics together.”
Kamille also went on to say that her main event bout against Taya Valkyrie was overlooked because of all of the discussion surrounding EmPowerrr 2.
“Uh definitely, I definitely think it’s something [to be proud of]. Me and Taya [Valkyrie], we main evented the first night, so I think that’s something that got lost in the Empower 2 talk. People lost the fact that okay, there might not be an Empower 2 this year, but we have two women main eventing in the Chase Ballroom. That’s a big deal and I think that kind of got overlooked.”
Although Corgan has reiterated that the company will do another EmPowerrr event in the future, people within the business such as KiLynn King and Maria Kanellis have came out and commented on Corgan’s stance on the event.
Recently, Kamille admitted that she wrongfully omitted from discussions about the best women’s wrestlers. To learn more, click here.
