Or grab a REALLY WEAK rear chin lock and ask your opponent if they're okay. There ya go, another good example. The one I was taught was putting your fingers in the other wrestlers hand after a big spot and they'll squeeze it if they're OK.

legit how Strong a punch needs to be to give a concussion? Doesn't have to be strong
She has a history so even something simple could give her a concussion if she hits it just hard enough

I've never had a day of wrestling training, but from what I've seen from wrestling, one of the ways to cover for something like this is after you see your opponent down like that, take that opportunity to taunt the crowd. Get heat on yourself while the ref checks if your opponent is alright. Or grab a REALLY WEAK rear chin lock and ask your opponent if they're okay. Or just blindly run at them and drop an elbow square toward their head while they're not looking like a clumsy oaf, that works too.

As long as there are no long term effects to her health, this could honestly end up being a net positive if she ends up getting the big Mania match instead of blowing through it at Survivor Series.
However, her health is the most important thing by far.

WWE booking while backed into their panic corner is always so fascinating. They’ve just booked the match that was long rumoured to be the possible first women’s WrestleMania main event and arguably the whole endgame of Rousey’s first championship arc, on 24 hours notice for Survivor Series, only five days before it.

If Becky ends up pulling out of this okay its a blessing in disguise.
Becky vs Ronda should be taking place at Wrestlemania, not a meaningless Raw vs Smackdown PPV.

Anyone else think they are playing up the injury a bit? I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised if she has the broken nose and a “regular” concussion, but no way is she able to do what she did post-bloodying with a severe concussion. From what I’ve seen, severe concussions usually (but not always) involve unconsciousness, and the sufferer is in a thick daze. That was not Becky last night. Your observations on concussion sufferers is mostly accurate...for an average person. Athletes often don't show the signs of a concussion at first (or at all, sometimes). Part of it is due to their superior conditioning helping to keep things stronger than in Joe Schmoe, the other part is that their training includes so many routines and such that they can easily drift into pure autopilot mode and it becomes their reflexes and muscle memory doing all the work and not necessarily the brain, especially when that person is already highly adrenalized.

That's Vince to a T, man. Sometimes I wonder how he would done as a general.

Watching that promo you couldn’t not feel for Becky she’s the hottest she’s ever been as a character and consistently putting in great performances hopefully she recovers quickly and doesn’t go back down the card in favor of Charlotte with Becky being just another girl in the women’s mania battle royal.

Sometimes your body goes on cruise control and takes over. I honestly dont remember what happened after I got whacked with a hook but people have told me I finished the round on my feet. So you never know

So, looking at the WWE footage again, Jax takes the swing basically blinded because she’s got a whole bunch of her own hair in her face and can’t see shit. By all rights, she probably should have waited until she could see where she aiming and her depth perception was better, because you see what swinging blindly gets you.

After that promo Becky gave and that moment with Charlotte, I have a lot more hope that this setback will be better for her in the long haul.
That was a face turn.

The ultra rare face turn to a face turn. It could be great for her but this is wwe and they like to ignore things when people come back from injuries she’ll probably return by attacking Charlotte and become an even bigger face that’s supposedly a heel.

Didn't Bryan have a severe concussion during the Bray Wyatt cage match moment? So it's entirely possible to work through that in the moment

So you never know My friend Bob used to box... he stopped because in his last fight he saw the opponent come towards him... and then his hand being raised at the end. he ot a concussion in one of the first blows was out on his feet but continued to stay standing and fighting for the 3 rounds.

By all rights, she probably should have waited until she could see where she aiming and her depth perception was better, because you see what swinging blindly gets you. This is why having long hair and not putting it up is utterly stupid in real combat sports. Maybe they might want to consider doing it more in WWE too.

So Becky did her whole iconic posing and badassery WHILE CONCUSSED AND WITH A BROKEN FACE. The Man deserves Brock level pay.
