I will say I think AJ did a few things well

1. She could talk okay. Had good flow. And cadence when she wasn't trying to be OH CRAZY.
2. As I said the submissions were decent looking when she did them
3. I liked her selling a lot. Watching AJ get rag dolled all over the place was very fun

The problem is she sabotaged herself out of 1 and 2 by not having a good idea of what she was good at and just doing what she was a fan of. While in theory a good AJ match could occur she'd be throwing out these clumsy backhands and the opponent would have to sell them-- Ric Flair could get a good match out of a broom but he couldn't get a good one out of AJ Lee for this reason. And while she in theory could cut a good promo she wouldn't because her character was utterly unbelievable or she was dropping cringey "pipe bombs" or whatever else.

She was a fangirl first a wrestler second. And yeah it made her really painful to watch. Honestly if her selling was not good it would be really hard to put her above much in that battle royal or whatever other than like Cameron. And it still is, really. I can't honestly say she's better than Rosa Mendes and be fully confident in it because I think AJ Lee's ability to tank a segment was much greater-- but I can't honestly say Rosa Mendes is better either cause at least AJ Lee was good at some things.
