With the match tied after the 30 minutes expired, referee Chad Patton made the decision to go into sudden death overtime. That’s an important part of why I didn’t have a huge issue with the timing of it. Yeah, it was a poor camera angle that showed Banks clearly staring at the clock to see how much time was left, but Flair did a great job at bridging the move and seemingly giving Banks no choice but to tap given the added pressure to her leg in those three seconds.
