#1 Peyton really won
As pointed out on Twitter by @andrewmswift, it turns out that Ember Moon’s heartwarming big win in front of her home state currently has a big asterisk next to it. It’s correct to question if she’s really the new NXT Women’s Champion because according to the clip above, Peyton Royce is the rightful winner of last night’s match.
It’s clear as day as Kairi Sane prepares to deliver her gorgeous elbow drop off of the top rope that Nikki Cross’ shoulders were down while The Iconic One laid atop her. The ref even slid his hand near her shoulders to check, proving that he was aware that he was ignoring the fall.

Sane leapt off the top rope and dropped it onto both women at once, a feat that could only be accomplished if Royce was covering Cross.
Peyton and her pal Billie Kay need to address this malfeasance to Commissioner Regal as soon as possible.
