>>11757297It's been that way in NXT since forever. Finn Balor and Samoa Joe put on a fuckin banger for the title and the ref had to stop the match cause Joe got busted open and Joe was so pissed he was shoving the ref. Finn got a breather, recovered, and won the match.
In WWE, when shit goes wrong, they call an audible and work it into the match itself. In AEW, when shit goes wrong, they dump you on your concussed head: TWICE.
