Yeah the logic is pretty dumb when you think about that but it's kind of on par for AEW ref kayfabe lol restarting a match really should need more conclusive evidence but in the moment, I was just laughing so hard at the troll job
All they had to do was for Aubrey, after she found the bat and talked with Bryce for them to order that the footage should be shown on the screens. Then it all would've been way, way better, because like I said... this gives the asshole heel an out. Almost like the Starrcade 97 finish, in a way.
I am of strong belief logic is overrated in wrestling if I'm entertained
Believe me... I'm throwing logic out the window more often than not when it comes to Wrestling. When everyone pissed their pants about the finish to a Match being an exploding TV being used, I was in the way, way smaller corner of people who didn't mind whatsoever.
You can apply real world logic (which I don't), but there is also Wrestling world logic (or AEW logic/WWE logic respectively) to apply and in this case it simply makes the Refs look very, very bad and it makes the new Champ, who's World Title run starts like this, look really bad as well. I also enjoyed the finish in itself... it was just the worst possible option to use it for.
