    Tapping clean makes her look weak and goes against her whole The Man gimmick. It should have been a Austin style pass out if they wanted her to lose to submission.

    If she had tapped out on the first submission attempt by Asuka then yes I'd agree, but the fact that it went back and forth. The austin pass out shouldn't be used in that situation IMO.

    Why even have Becky in the title match if she was losing? Rubbish booking

    To put Auska over and make her look strong getting a clean win against the most popular wrestler on the roster currently. Now if she doesn't win the rumble and challenge Ronda it will be rubbish booking, if she does win it then it was good to make Auska look strong while Becky moves to Raw.

    But how is Becky a threat to Ronda now when she can’t survive Asuka’s submissions?

    If she never tapped they could go the route of how tough she is and can Ronda even make her tap?

    Lynch definitely looked weak there, as mentioned passing out would have sold it more... Only a rumble win can salvage that!

    If the bar lose this then i give up

    Would it? She can't beat Asuka, why would we believe she take on the all-conquering Rousey?

    That loss really hurt the character.

    But Ronda wouldn't have to get her to tap out if she just passes out again.

    If Lynch wins the rumble, would she not challenge Asuka now?

    Jesus lads there is no way they can have the women not tapping as most finishers are submissions.
    It’d ruin all of their finishers if they started doing that. Putting Asuka over clean will be forgotten about if she wins the Rumble and puts her sights on Ronda.

    Asuka and Charlotte then will have a legitimate feel to it instead of being the B belt.

    Shane O'Mac's punches look like they would hurt less than a nice hug from Bayley

    You said she should have passed out. The Austin pass out was because he was bleeding and when you lose blood you can pass out. Becky wasn't busted open so what would the pass out be blamed out ?

    Being choked the f out?!?

    Then they could least say the man would rather pass out than tap out.

    Shane Mcmahon has been wrestling for 20 years and behind the scenes before that he was around some of the punchers in pro wrestling history and yet he still can't even throw a somewhat believable punch.

    I liked that Asuka and Becky were legit slapping the shít out of each other. Women's striking can look iffy some of the time.

    Can’t have Lynch pass out then sprint down the ramp later that night. Not with the concussion stuff going on...

    He absolutely nailed that Shooting Star Press too. Shane is unreal for a non-wrestler.

    thought that finish was great to be fair. Did not expect that finish at all (I mean the move not the result)

    That shooting star is perfect. A nearly 50 year old non-wrestler shouldn't be able to do that.
