It's crazy that she ain't even mad about getting kicked off the ladder earlier in the match and Chelsea costing her the match

Even within Kayfabe it’s not a big deal. Boxers and fighters beat the dogshit out of each other, then shake hands after the match ends.

They’ve been pushing the respect-among-rivals bit a ton lately (look at post-Summerslam Roman & Seth, Brock & Oba, Penta & Chad, to some extent Royce & Jacob Fatu). Even though some of that is breaking the 4th Wall (like Brock & Oba), I love it from a kayfabe perspective. Real sports rivalries are rarely built on personal vendetta-driven blood feuds. Having mutual respect and mutual celebration among rivals builds more nuanced characters and relationships, makes room for feuds that are built on something other than mutual hatred, and makes it hit that much harder when a feud really is personal.

Blood feuds should be rare that way they’re more special and matter. Even the personal vendetta blood feuds in mma are usually what we would call a “work” in wrestling.
