Ok here's an example of bad psychology:
If say for example Chris Benoit was working on a guys leg through out the match, with holds and striking moves, almost to the point when the other guy couldn't walk, and then finishes him off with a crossface, that wouldn't make good ring psychology as his arms and neck (where the move would do the most damage) would still be ok. Also if the other guy who's getting worked on, did a nip up or started doing irish whips after his leg had been worked on it wouldn't make sense.
Other things like working up to the big moves, i've seen too many feds with inexperinced workers not building up to a big move to pop the crowd. Take a look at most WWE matches, they don't really do any big bumps until towards the end of the matches, if you start off your match with a powerbomb it's going to be difficult to get the crowd to care about a similar finish at the end of the match (Ian, don't use the bam bam/Taz defense against me)
There's also the psychology with minds games and stuff that Raven, Jake and Pillman do, but i don't think we are talking about that
Psychology IMO doesn't mean one thing, it's the whole aspect of making it all authentic and above all make sense logically
