Tonight’s Women’s Championship Match between Sasha Banks and Carmella was as action-packed as you would expect, but what we didn’t expect was a dive out of the ring that had fans seriously concerned for Carmella. At one point Carmella dove towards Banks but didn’t land as intended, as she landed face-first against the ground. It looked pretty brutal, though she got right back up and continued the match, so she seems to be okay. Many took to social to talk about the move, and we’ve included a few of the biggest reactions below.
