I heard the same, that the belt could change hands with any pin. I don’t recall hearing a stipulation regarding JE needing to be pinned at all. That would’ve taken away from the match, in my opinion.
Going back and watching Mox/Danielson, I noticed that Danielson’s shoulder was up during the final pin. I can’t help but think they twist that into a rematch between the two. I wouldn’t be upset at all.
Last, the new women’s belt has a resemblance to the Mid-South North American Heavyweight Championship belt, which makes me like it even more. Respecting history like that with influence from other organizations is really meaningful.
