Puppet Mon wasnt cooked up in a corporate creative meetingit came straight from Harley Camerons imagination and Amazon cart.
Speaking with Ariel Helwani, Cameron broke down exactly how she created the fan-favorite puppet parody of Mercedes Mon, from discovering puppetry in Australia to building the puppet herself.
She taught herself ventriloquism and developed a real passion for puppetry thanks to her time at Draculas, which led to a creative obsession.
The idea for Puppet Mon started earlier this year during her feud with Mercedes Mon. What began as a throwaway line quickly became something much bigger.
From there, Harley Cameron did all the work herselfliterally. Except for purchasing the base from Amazon and getting some help from Chris of AEWs wardrobe department.
She admitted they didnt know how fans would react to the puppet, but the response was instantly positive.
Cameron also gave a shoutout to AEW President Tony Khan for giving her the creative freedom to run with the idea, saying, So yeah, big thanks to Tony Khan for letting me do it.
What started as a side joke quickly became one of the most memorable parts of her character. With Puppet Mon gaining attention, Harley Camerons creativity and charisma continue to help her stand out in AEW in a big way.
