Isn’t that supposed to be a knockout punch finisher?
Becky just kind of fell over and looked bemused and got back up.
Hopefully she gets a better finisher.

Becky’s in that top spot right now. Of course she’s gotta no sell!

Monday was a little bit of a no sell, but last night wasn't. She went down and her facial expressions made it seem like she was really rattled by it. She also didn't go back after Lacey like she did on Raw.
It's stupid that Alexa can knock people out and someone like Lacey can't, but they might as well give her a different finisher anyway.

I like simple finishing moves. If I was a wrestler, my finisher would be a punch or a clothesline.

Someone reminded Vince that Lacey's punch is her finisher so they redid it on SDL I'm sure. If that's not how it went, I'd be surprised.

I wonder how much of Monday's segment had to do with simple miscommunication. Like Becky and Lacey are set to have this face to face, with Lacey cheap shotting Becky with a suckerpunch, and commentary ends up calling it by the finisher's name. After all, it seemed kind of similar to the segment where Becky suckerpunched Charlotte and they had a pull-apart brawl.
How are we supposed to know what's a regular punch and what's The Woman's Right?

It's a great name for a move. And a "simple" punch or kick can be a great finishing move.But I agree with others who believe it has to be delivered in some unique way so we all know it isn't just a regular punch in the middle of a match or something. I'm not creative enough to think of what that would be... She could look at it for a second (Imbuing it with power!), kiss her fist before delivering it, have an interesting wind up... I dunno, but something.

She could always just wear a glove over the hand she uses for that punch or something.

She could always just wear a glove over the hand she uses for that punch or something. And then, in a repeat of the Narcissist storyline, it turns out she's got a metal plate in her hand, from an accident when she was in the military. |

It's hard to take simple punches or kicks seriously as finishers even though it's quite realistic because you have so many matches with like 10 wild knee slappy kicks to the face that people just shrug off.

I like it. It’s simple and works with the gimmick.
I’m just glad she does have a gimmick. It’s one of the reasons I like her so much. She put work into this and you can see it.
She could be just another blonde but where would be the fun in that? You need to do things to stand out. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was the top heel in the Division this time next year.

It would work even better if they brought up her Navy SEAL background a bit more.
