ESPNs Brian Campbell has your recap for what should be the final word in this chapter to the rivalry of the year in the WWE womens division. ESPN Stats & Information researcher Sean Coyle provides an in-depth rating for the WWE Raw womens championship Iron Man match as well, breaking things down on a sliding scale from zero to five.Raw womens championship (30-minute Iron Man match):?Charlotte Flair def. Sasha Banks 3-2 in overtime (34:45)Charlotte Flair?and?Sasha Banks?added a new chapter to the growing legend of their 2016 rivalry on Sunday night -- closing out the years final pay-per-view with a 30-minute Iron Man?match that needed extra time to declare a winner.With Banks bleeding heavily from her nose and mouth during overtime, Charlotte forced the WWE Raw womens champion to tap out via the Figure 8 leg lock to win the match three falls to two at Roadblock: End of the Line in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.Charlotte regained the title as the belt changed hands for the sixth time since the WWEs latest brand split in July. All three of Banks victories during that stretch have come on Raw, while all of Charlottes have taken place on PPV. The victory extended Charlottes unbeaten streak in pay-per-view singles to 15-0 -- the best mark ever recorded by a WWE superstar.Sundays match was much slower and methodical than their recent physical and violent meetings at Summer Slam and Hell in a Cell. While the PPG Paints Arena crowd was slow to heat up, Charlotte and Banks gave them plenty of reason to as their largely technical affair heated up late.Charlotte recorded the first fall with 10 minutes, 46 seconds remaining when she pinned Banks after connecting with her Natural Selection finishing move off the top rope. Banks countered two minutes later to even things up with a sneaky roll-up for a three count.After Charlotte missed a moonsault minutes later, Banks took the lead with 6:40 remaining when she forced Charlotte to tap to her Banks Statement submission.The end of regulation saw Charlotte, who was trailing 2-1, focused exclusively on the left knee of Banks. She applied her Figure 8 leg lock in the center of the ring with exactly 2:00 to go, and forced Banks to dramatically tap out with just seconds to spare to even things up.After referee Chad Patton called for a sudden-death overtime period, Charlotte continued to attack Banks knee before the bell sounded to start the extra session.Banks initially had Charlotte trapped in a Banks Statement but Charlotte broke fee and reserved the move into a Figure 4 again, before arching her back to form the bridge of the Figure 8 to earn the submission win as Banks face become covered with blood following a blow to the face.The bout marked the 11th Iron Man match in WWE history and just the second female match. Banks and Bayley took part in a 30-minute Iron Man match at NXT Takeover: Respect in 2015.? Patrick Beverley Clippers Jersey . Spiller left Week 3s 27-20 loss to the New York Jets with a thigh injury, but fully practiced with the team all week and expects to be ready to go on Sunday. Amir Coffey Clippers Jersey . After Mondays hard-fought loss, the wait seemed longer than usual. Getting set to go their separate ways for a short Christmas break, the Raptors coach credited his team for their effort on a seemingly impossible three-game road trip, urging them to build on that success when they get back to work at the end of the week. https://www.clipperslockerroom.com/Jerome-Robinson-City-Edition-Jersey/ . "We have always prided ourselves on the way we play defence. Having two big pieces back is going to be a key for us moving forward for years to come," said Knighthawks head coach Mike Hasen. Kawhi Leonard Jersey . The 18th player to shoot 60 on the tour, Jamieson settled for par on the final hole when his 15-foot birdie chip grazed the edge of the hole and stayed out. After opening with rounds of 66 and 73 to make the cut by a stroke, he had 11 birdies in the bogey-free round. Terance Mann Clippers Jersey . "Four now," Carl Gunnarsson told the Leaf Report proudly following a 5-2 victory over New York on Tuesday night, the clubs fifth straight at home. Tejay van Garderen was third overall in the Tour de France a year ago, just a handful of stages between him and a podium place in Paris, when he pulled to the side of the road and climbed into his team car.A respiratory infection he had been fighting for days had forced him out of the race.It was a bitter disappointment for van Garderen, who has twice finished fifth in cyclings marquee race, but also for American fans waiting for someone to step into the void left by Lance Armstrong.Perhaps this is the year that finally happens.Van Garderen will join four other Americans on the start line Saturday in Mont-Saint-Michel, all of them with enough ability to stir things up. In fact, van Garderen and Richie Porte were picked as co-leaders of the BMC Racing Team, which means the 27-year-old from Tacoma, Washington, will have plenty of support.Ive already raced the Tour de France a couple of times with most of these guys, so I couldnt be happier to line up with them once again, van Garderen said. Im in great shape. Im really motivated.Van Garderen withdrew his name from consideration for the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, citing concerns about the Zika virus, with his wife due to give birth in October. That means the Tour is his sole priority.As if there was any doubt, given the way last year shook out.Hell be joined at the Tour by teammate Brent Bookwalter, who will be part of the two-man U.S. squad in Rio. Cannondale Pro Cycling also has two Americans in Lawson Craddock and Alex Howes, despite Andrew Talansky skipping the race because of family concerns and a chronic sinus infection. Peter Stetina rounds out the American contingent for Trek-Segafredo. Stetina, who suffered career-threatening injuries in a crash at Pais-Vasco last year, may have the best feel-good story in the peloton.The five American riders are two more than a year ago, when the fewest in nearly two decades made it to the start, but still represent a modest total -- there were 10 just five years ago.For various reasons, several of Americas brightest stars are joining Talansky on the sideline.Tayllor Phinney was not part of BMCs roster, his sights set instead on the Rio Olympics, where he has a chance to medal in the time trial.dddddddddddd Tyler Farrar, a stage winner in 2011, was passed over by his Dimension Data team, and Ben King was skipped over by Cannondale despite his strong performance in California.Still, those on the start list for the Tour have enough ability to make good on their aspirations.Van Garderen is a legitimate podium threat, especially after his recent stage win in the Tour de Suisse. Bookwalter has a punchers chance to win from a breakaway. Stetina will focus on helping Dutch teammate Bauke Mollema in the hills but proved at the Tour of California that he can surprise on any uphill stage.Craddock, a bright-eyed Texan, and Howes, who like Stetina grew up in the cycling hotbed near Boulder, Colorado, are intriguing youngsters who believe they have something to prove.With it being my first Tour its hard to place certain expectations on myself, Craddock said. Just lining up on the start line of the Tour is a dream come true, so if I were able to wear a jersey there, then I think my mind would just explode. That being said, Im a born and bred bike racer, and I line up to every race I do with dreams of winning. Im not just going to the Tour to be pack fodder.Not just pack fodder? Sure doesnt sound like a Tour rookie.Jonathan Vaughters, who founded the U.S.-based Cannondale team, said French veteran Pierre Rolland will be the pivot-point of his squad. But he didnt dismiss the 24-year-old Craddock or the 28-year-old Howes from trying to animate the race, especially given their charmingly cavalier attitudes.The anticipation of this race is huge, Craddock said. I imagine the few days leading up to the start Ill have a few more nerves than normal, but at the end of the day, its just another bike race. The neutral flag goes down on the first stage, Im sure those nerves will be replaced with pure adrenaline. ' ' '
