Fans were left confused by the ending of the inter-gender tag team match on this week's episode of Raw.
The match saw A.J. Lee & Big E Langston take on Natalya & the Great Khali. The match ended after A.J. seemingly submitted to the Sharpshooter twice. The Referee refused to stop the match, forcing Natalya to re-apply the hold. Michael Cole, JBL and Jerry Lawler all claimed that the Referee was confused because he was not in the correct position to see A.J. tap out.
In actual fact, Natalya released the hold just before A.J. tapped out. This does not count as a legitimate submission and the Referee was correct in continuing the match. After Natalya approached the Referee to get her hand raised, the Referee could be seen telling each woman to "Do it again". When the second hold was applied, A.J. tapped out even quicker than the first time.
