Penn did that thing he does sometimes where he just doesn't show up and lets his opponent do whatever he wants. That's what happened here. Benson did all kinds of whatever-he-wanted here, and BJ just let him do them. Until he died. RIP Penn.
Really, though, how is Penn so inconsistent. He can be the best, or the meh-est. WHY!!! I want to see him as champ at least once. He's Beedge.

Penn did that thing he does sometimes where he just doesn't show up and lets his opponent do whatever he wants. That's what happened here. Benson did all kinds of whatever-he-wanted here, and BJ just let him do them. Until he died. RIP Penn.
Really, though, how is Penn so inconsistent. He can be the best, or the meh-est. WHY!!! I want to see him as champ at least once. He's Beedge.
