my original thought was that rey had somehow gotten knocked loopy and wouldn't be in position to protect himself from the DDT. cone called an audible to break up the move to protect rey, you could then hear him tell rey "get to the outside" then rey just kinda stood in the area on the outside trying to look apologetic about the collision, while clearing his head so he could prepare himself to take the finisher safely.
if it was just so could they could a shot of rey looking concerned on the outside then that's just silly.

They could always pull a WCW and say that Rey refused to follow the script and act concern toward Zelina so the referee had to step in and do the right thing.

The most annoying part is that match was an absolute banger up to that point

This is clearly setting up a Wrestlemania feud between Rey Mysterio & former WWE Raw Tag Team Champion Nicolas.

Gotta get that shot for the PPV hype video.
That's literally what Raw and Smackdown have been for years now, nothing makes any sense and just exists so they have footage to edit together and make look half coherent in video packages.

I hope this is the year WWE takes a page from early '90s WCW production, and tells their audience who to boo and cheer, and specific things they want them to chant. I want the titontrons to say crap like "applause," "silence," and "Vince is God." I want them to reshoot entire segments and matches, and chastise the audience for not complying.
The twist is that they keep their programming live. A billion-dollar company pulling bush-league stunts like this, deserves to have its shame aired publicly.

I always felt that way every time Stephanie McMahon spoke. Everything is says is designed to be cut up and thrown in a video package.

Was it TNA who told the audience they were cast members and should act how TNA wants them to?

Yeah, I can't remember the exact details, but I think there was an incident when Rick Rude was in WCW, and they had to reshoot his entrance when the fans accidentally cheered for him when he was the heel.

I really thought they were going with an injury angle, ref stopping things before Rey got too badly hurt, then they just clumsily went about things. That was bad, but ok, shit happens when we're live pal, people make mistakes. But it was really the aftermath that confused the hell out of me. So Andrade took Rey's mask. Okay, what's going to happen here, is Andrade going to parade this trophy around for the next month, will Rey be too ashamed to don another mask and be unable to get revenge, will this go on until the taunting becomes more than we can stand and we're rabid to see Andrade get his comeuppance? No, 15 minutes later, Rey's going to jump him and things are back to normal. This was something they had a chance to think out and film in this perfect way that is required for some reason, and that was the best they could come up with.

Both companies made goofs, You want to discuss the AEW goof there is a board for it. Lol this was the point I was making before I was lamely suspended. I didn't think people got so bent out of shape about being called fanboys. I wasn't trying to "start" anything but just noticed silly trend of people bringing up the punches when ever wwe did something "bad"
