Kamille: What’s Next for the Brickhouse?

One of the best NWA World Women’s Champions EVER

June 6, 2021. The day everything changes for The Brickhouse of professional wrestling. 

Kamille defeated Serena Deeb to win the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) World Women’s Championship, which is also known as The Burke, in honor of the late, great former and first-ever NWA World Women’s Champion Mildred Burke back in 1950. For 813 days, Kamille was unstoppable, taking on the best the world of women’s wrestling has to offer, which included names such as Max the Impaler, Melina Perez, Chelsea Green, Kylie Rae, Taya Valkyrie, Kilynn King, Angelina Love, and Natalia Markova, among many others for a total of 42 title defenses. Her matches in the later part of her reign have been considered show-stealers in various NWA shows. Many fans have openly stated that the reason they even paid attention to the NWA today was due to Kamille. To many, SHE was the face of the NWA, not the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion or the Ten Pounds of Gold. But like all things, they must come to an end and on August 27, night 2 of NWA 75, a night after defeating Natalia Markova to retain her title, she would lose to Kenzie Paige, bringing Kamille’s incredible reign to an end. Fun fact: Kenzie was Kamille’s first title defense back in July 24, 2021, so how ironic that Kamille’s run would end by her very first challenger. With over 40 title defenses across 16 promotions spanning the globe, it’s safe to say that Kamille might go down as one of the most dominant NWA World Women’s Champions of all time.

813 days. 42 title defenses across different promotions around the world. What a run by the Brickhouse!

But now begs the question…what’s next for the Brickhouse? I mean, she CAN chase the Burke again, but let’s face it, after having a record run with it, what more can you do with that title? She can go after the NWA World Women’s Televlsion title but that wouldn’t be the same as it’s not as big as the Burke in terms of legacy, but Kamille winning that title would give it instant credibility. Then there’s the other option…take her talents to a bigger stage, which she has MORE than earned her right to be showcased to a bigger audience. The obvious answers would be WWE and AEW. For WWE, it would be a chance for the Brickhouse to have classic dream encounters with competitors such as Charlotte Flair, Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Becky Lynch, Raquel Rodriquez, and others. Maybe if Raw or Smackdown isn’t an option, the NXT women’s division would be a great place for her as well, as many feel the NXT women’s division is the best overall division among all three brands in WWE.  But a part of me would rather see her in AEW, as let’s face it…they could use a good jolt to their women’s division. The talent is there, but the star power and presence is lacking some. Kamille would give them that instantly , and HELLO…Kamille vs Jade Cargill?! INSTANT BOX OFFICE! Neither are undefeated anymore, but it doesn’t make it any less of a dream match to me. Impact Wrestling could also be an option for Kamille as she would get to work with an incredibly talented Knockouts division. While it would be a step down in terms of exposure in comparison with WWE and AEW, it would be a step up in comparison with NWA as at least Kamille would be on television as opposed to just being online. As far as a great wrestling promotion is concerned, folks need to stop sleeping on Impact Wrestling. 

Regardless of what Kamille does, she has already seal her place in wrestling as one of the most dominant champions in women’s wrestling history. Anything else she does in the ring at this point regardless of where she goes moving forward is just icing on the cake. She is only 30 so she’s far from done in the ring. Kamille controls her own destiny at this point. We DO know one thing in her immediate future, though: Kamille will be playing as June Byers in the upcoming Queen of the Ring movie, which is currently in production. Queen of the Ring is about Mildred Burke’s rise as a pro wrestler. 

We have a gut feeling that despite already making history, the best is yet to come for the Brickhouse and we look forward to it with much anticipation!

Open the bank for her. She’s worth it and then some!

Kamille: The Brickhouse of Professional Wrestling

June 6, 2021.

NWA: When Our Shadows Fall.

Kamille defeated Serena Deeb to become the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) World Women’s Champion for the first time in her career. And for over 440 days, she has proven to be arguably THE most dominant Women’s Champion of any company in the world right now. In her 440+ day reign as Champion, she has had a total of 22 successful title defenses, hoping to add title defenses 23 AND 24 to the list this weekend when she faces maybe her toughest challenger to date in Taya Valkyrie at Night 1 of NWA 74 this Saturday night and IF successful, the winner of the Burke Invitational at Night 2 of NWA 74 this Sunday.

With no disrespect to any Women’s Champion on television right now, there is no Women’s Champion who defines PURE DOMINANCE more than Kamille. She is one of the most beautiful women in wrestling but also one of the most powerful as well. VERY few women in wrestling can rival her strength and athleticism, hence her long title reign.  She has a power game, a striking game, a ground-and-pound game…honestly, it doesn’t matter what style of wrestling you have, Kamille can match with anyone, and for that reason, no one has been able to figure out how to stop her. 

When one matches with her just on the LOOKS department, she is just about heads and shoulders above everyone else. A great example of that was displayed during the August 4th, 2021 edition of All Elite Wrestling (AEW) Dynamite (their Homecoming show) when Legit Layla Hirsch become Number One contender for Kamille’s title at the time. When Kamille went to the ring to confront Layla, the difference was insane. Kamille’s height, built, physique, demeanor…her overall presence was BOX OFFICE. If you were to flip your channel and see her on screen, most would stop and go “WOAH!” and be in awe of her. And most did as she was one of the top trending topics that night. I mean, Kamille would not look out of place as a Bond girl or villain or any kind of top villain in a movie. That’s how box office her presence is. 

What. A. Visual!

In terms of her finisher, the Spear, hers isn’t the most flashy but it’s not meant to be. It’s meant to end a match then and there because of the power she puts behind it and she has done just that in each of her matches. The second that spear connects, it’s game over. She isn’t called the Brickhouse for nothing, folks.

Speaking of being the Brickhouse, prior to becoming NWA World Women’s Champion last year, she challenged herself to do something big in the event of the NWA potentially not returning due to the pandemic and the world shutting down. She trained for a bodybuilding competition (specifically the figure division) and cleaned house at the 2020 Daytona Beach Classic, winning Novice Open, Class D Open, and the overall open figure title. She also got engaged to her now-husband and current and fellow NWA wrestler Thomas Latimer. With the amount of muscle she has put on since her show, we could see her doing another show and dominating that one as well!

Traditionally, when you think of the NWA, you think of the Ten Pounds of Gold and the man that’s holding it. But these days, when one thinks of the NWA, Kamille is the first name to pop up due to her dominance as a champion, which hurts me to my soul that despite the FITE.TV and YouTube deal that she’s not on TV more often. Kamille is a box-office attraction that DESERVES to be on the small screen as much as possible. To us, if you want the perfect women’s champion, look no further than the Brickhouse of Professional Wrestling in Kamille. To us, the only entity that can stop Kamille at this point…is Kamille herself, and we don’t see that happening anytime soon. When it’s all said and done, Kamille will go down as one of the most dominant champions of all time not only in the NWA Women’s Division but in all of wrestling period. 

THE most dominant women’s champion in professional wrestling today!
