#2 Falling into the ropes somehow

The more this sequence gets played, the harder it is to figure out how exactly Ruby Riott landed in the ropes. After she halted an Irish Whip attempt by Charlotte, Ruby suffered a backbreaker directly onto the knee of the SmackDown Women's Champion. Charlotte then pulled her back almost as if she was trying for something similar to a Lethal Combination but let go of her opponent instead.

Riott was sent toward the middle of the ring, but instead changed her momentum and pivoted almost complete 180 degrees toward the middle rope. The physics don't necessarily make sense but Charlotte likely isn't going to complain about the end result.

When it was all over, Charlotte made her challenger tap out to her Figure 8 submission move. The bigger takeaway from this match was the post-match segment when Asuka came out to make a formal cross-brand challenge for WrestleMania. That should be a relief to Alexa Bliss.
