Details On WrestleMania 35 Main Event Finish Possibly Not Going Off As Planned, Ronda Rousey Reportedly Not Happy With Finish

As you probably noticed, the ending to the Becky Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair WrestleMania 35 main event seemed a bit off. Tom Colohue of PWTorch and Fansided reports that Rousey was supposed to kick-out of what ended up being the finish of the match, which saw her pinned following Rousey going for the Piper’s Pit which Lynch countered into a crucifix pin. Rousey’s shoulders were not on the mat during the pin. Following what was apparently supposed to be a kick-out there, the match was supposed to go on a bit longer and end with Charlotte tapping out to Lynch.
Sean Sapp of Fightful also tweeted that the finish didn’t go off as planned and that Rousey wasn’t happy with how the match ended, apparently because it made her look bad.
According to @Colohue w/sources inside WWE:
Becky should have tapped out Charlotte.
"I've been told by different people, in different positions within WWE, that that was the plan. It sure looks like they've just botched the main event of WrestleMania."#WrestleMania

More from @colohue:
Match ended too abruptly, Becky was still meant to win.
"Accident's happen. The ref's continued a count after a kick out. He hasn't delayed between the 2 and 3 like they're supposed to and Becky hasn't let go in time for Ronda to kick out."#WrestleMania

Ladies and gentlemen, anticlimactic as that was in the end, the important thing is that #beckylynch is now the first double #raw and #sdlive women's champion.
Quite the #Wrestlemania that. #WWE

The finish didn't happen as planned. Rousey wasn't happy after, either. Thought the situation made her look bad, apparently.

Shoulders were up after one. Ref messed up. Right person still won. Will likely sort out on Raw and SmackDown. pic.twitter.com/IN30nx8LK4
