[2013-06-16-WWE-Payback] A.J. Lee vs Kaitlyn


Loss

Recommended Posts

Kaitlyn isn’t having any of AJ’s taunting and things get aggressive early as she dumps her over the announce table. After a hot start, things slow down with some headlocks and AJ slaps on her Black Widow submission but Kaitlyn fights out. Big E is at ringside. AJ applies a crucifix but Kaitlyn powers out, picking AJ up and slamming her. Kaitlyn rips off AJ’s belt but when the ref is distracted AJ is able to grab it and knocks Kaitlyn out with it. Kaitlyn kicks out and AJ starts to snap. AJ goes for a cross-body but is caught by Kaitlyn but then AJ slips on the Black Widow. Kaitlyn powers out of that and spears AJ. Kaitlyn decides to NOT pin AJ so she blows her a kiss (is this a Wyatt family clue?) while she holds her in her arms and then slams her head, but AJ kicks out. Weird spot for a face there. Kaitlyn misses a charge in the corner and AJ again locks on the Black Widow. Kaitlyn has nowhere to go and eventually wilts and taps out.

 

This was one of the better lead-ups to a Divas match. Afterwards the crowd booed Kaitlyn as she cried on the ramp.

This was great storytelling, with Kaitlyn furious over Lee's manipulation of her with a fake secret admirer. The champ would use her strength and power, but Lee's intelligence, speed, and technique were too much. The key moment was with the ref fixing the apron, Lee smacked Kaitlyn with her shorts belt, and also Kaitlyn having Lee beat but not going for the finish, caring more about vengeance than retaining the title. That came back to bite her when Lee clamped down with the Widow's Peak. Another great pop for this title change. ***1/2
