Not all botches are created equally, remember that.

Bigger mistakes might be made, but the experience and ability of the wrestlers, in general, must always be taken into account. Penelope Ford and Kris Statlander shouldn't be ridiculed for flubbing a reverse 'Rana, for obvious reasons. What use is the old cliche about learning from your mistakes if those mistakes aren't allowed to happen?

But PAC and Kenny Omega making the same mistake? A different thing entirely. If you were putting together a list of the 10 most accomplished professional wrestlers on the planet, The Bastard and the current AEW World Champion would certainly be on it, if not in the upper echelons. Put bluntly, these two are among the very best to have ever laced up a pair of boots.

They don't make mistakes, especially in these sorts of high stakes matches. What makes this double-reverse 'Rana balls-up even more surprising is that they both make similar mistakes, one after the other, fluffing their lines on a poison 'Rana like lemmings going over the cliff. Omega overshoots, while PAC doesn't even make it to The Cleaner's shoulders. A bizarre sequence of events, to say the least.
