Below the Belt

Plot hole: Given Rosa just started wrestling it seems unlikely she'd get a world title match so soon. That and when she bit Tommy on the lip she should've been disqualified.

Plot hole: Given Tommy assaults the referee during the match, even yanking his shirt off, he should've disqualified her.

Plot hole: It seems hard to believe that a barely five foot tall,100-pound woman with no wrestling experience (Rosa) could face and beat someone who looks like she's got ten years' experience, looks like she's 6-7 inches taller, and outweighs her by 40-50 pounds (Terrible Tommy Dukes).

Mistakes

Other mistake: When Tommy tries splashing Rosa during their match she hits the ring mat with her chest and stomach yet seconds later she's somehow knocked out. I never saw her head hit after multiple viewings of that scene.

Trivia: Regina Baff was difficult on set. Jane O'Brien who played Terrible Tommy revealed the match was supposed to end in a draw but Regina complained to the producers who forced director Robert Fowler to change it. She also shouted at Fowler more than once during filming.
