Bad armbar physics aside, I thought it was a fine finish. Neat story, even the loser looks strong. I'll allow it!

Well it's kinda of an iffy thing to bring mma moves to wwe. Like you can't give someone your back for half a second in real MMA or the choke is on and there's not many ways to get out of it. In wrestling you have to be "worn down" into it or something. And for armbars it's either you get the immediate normally fruitless defense or you tap or your arm is broke.

This is theoretically a good way to book this match but I think Moon needs to be at least a little bit over for it to work.

Yeah it's not like the crowd popped huge for when she won or anything.

I think I just really, really hate the "ahhhh, ahhhh" tone of scream that was going on that entire segment

like it was just bad and it made me irritated at something that was objectively much better than I give it credit for

Yeah I don't like Ember going clean to the other side of the ring after hitting her finisher, it makes her look like she just has bad ring awareness.

people watch ember wrestle and remember she's great and go wild if she wins, then she spends three months delivering bad promos and everyone's buzz wears off and they're pretty sure she just has the eclipse and that's it and cools off on her before the next takeover.

They would have done this with anything but the eclipse I think; I don't think anyone's kicked out even after a delay

Just find an online stream for it - WWE are region locking it so it's not like you're ripping them off by not using a service they're refusing to provide you for no good reason whatsoever.

So she's good in the ring and is able to get over based on her ringwork.

So it turns out that I was like 10 minutes behind (I forgot that I had paused the network earlier) and I thought the match was ending with a medical thingamajig after the big stunner (when the crowd was chanting "boring" I think). I got worked, yo.
