Kamille Fires Back at AEW Revolution Critics: Defends Damaris Lewis After Wrestling Controversy

AEW Revolution’s backstage drama isn’t just reserved for the ring! Damaris Lewis, star of the upcoming Queen of the Ring, found herself in the hot seat after a comment she made during an interview sent wrestling fans into a frenzy. When asked what she’d learned about wrestling while filming the movie, Damaris casually dropped a bombshell: wrestlers “know they’re going to win before anyone else.” Cue the collective gasp from fans who felt this was an open admission that wrestling is “fake” and all the outcomes are scripted.

But Kamille, Lewis’s fierce co-star and a wrestling powerhouse in her own right, wasn’t having it. She immediately jumped into defense mode, unleashing a fiery Instagram post to shut down the haters and set the record straight.

“I’m seeing lots of things about, ‘How could this actress say wrestling is fake? What in the world’s going on?’ I looked, and it was my girl Damaris, and I was thinking, why would she say something like that?” Kamille started, her tone clearly fired up. “I did press with her, I was on the film with her, and let me tell you — this girl has so much respect for wrestling. So I went and watched the video myself.”

Kamille didn’t mince words in calling out the misunderstanding. She made it clear that Damaris wasn’t throwing shade on the sport, but rather talking about the mindset wrestlers carry with them. “What she meant is, we are determined. We know we’re winners, we know we’re gonna make it no matter what,” Kamille snapped. “It’s not about the outcomes of a match — it’s about having the mindset of a winner. That’s what she meant!”

Kamille didn’t stop there. She went full throttle, blasting anyone who dared to twist Damaris’s words: “If you’ve seen her other interviews, she makes it clear. Unfortunately, in this situation, she only had a few seconds to get her point across, and people twisted it,” Kamille fired. “But trust me, she’s a massive wrestling fan and respects the game more than anyone!”

The controversy only goes to show how easily things can spiral out of control in the world of wrestling. While some fans were quick to condemn Damaris for what they perceived as disrespect, Kamille’s powerful defense reminds us all that sometimes the context gets lost in translation. Damaris wasn’t trashing the sport — she was simply reflecting the relentless drive that every true wrestler shares: the unshakable belief that they’re going to win, no matter what.

At the end of the day, Kamille’s message was clear: don’t mess with her girl. The Queen of the Ring star stands by her co-star, proving that in wrestling — and in life — it’s all about loyalty, determination, and understanding the bigger picture.
