Last Sunday at “SummerSlam,” Charlotte made history when she defeated Sasha Banks to become the WWE Women’s Champion for the second time.

At the conclusion of her match, many people on social media were flabbergasted by Charlotte’s performance, saying that there were several botched spots, and that she could have seriously injured “The Boss.”

WWE officials apparently agreed with the outcries of the internet.

According to a report from PWMania, Charlotte was scolded backstage after her match with Banks. Banks was already dealing with injuries going into the match, and officials yelled at Charlotte, saying that she was careless, and could have cause further harm to her opponent.

It should be noted that Banks was, in fact, hurt going into the match, and that she had been removed from several upcoming WWE Live Events to deal with these nagging injuries. In other good news, Banks won’t be needing surgery to recover, and will be back in the ring sooner rather than later.

Editor’s Note:

If this rumor is true, I’m not surprised at all. There’s no doubt that the match was not as smooth as their other contests in the past, and there were some issues with the execution of a few spots. However, accidents happen in the sport of professional wrestling, and hopefully everyone involved will learn from this, and continue to grow as performers.
