Re-watch the battle when Iron-Awe 2 lifts Barber-Ous 2 over. If it could self-right, there would have been no Judges' decision required.

In terms of Bigger Brother, it does count as well, seeing as Iron-Awe's axe in the fired position actually lifted the machine so high that it was unable to use its flipper and required Bigger Brother to right it. Kronic 2 would be able to do exactly the same to Iron-Awe 2.

I would also look at Iron-Awe 2's battle with Dantomkia for evidence as well. Note that Iron-Awe's controller is able to use his ability to try and get underneath Dantomkia's sides, which I admit he could probably do the same against Kronic 2. But note that as soon as the axe fired, it would not only expose Iron-Awe 2's front ground clearance, but also would cause the machine to expose its rear. And we know the fate of Iron-Awe 2 in that battle...

Now, to be honest, Iron-Awe 2 is a great machine that was unlucky. But the main problem it had was that axe in my opinion, capable only of damaging Barber-Ous 2. I wonder if the issues with the axe led the team (with the exception of Iron-Awe 4), to concentrate on the flipper instead, with Iron-Awe 5 and 7 being notable examples.
