I hope this explanation of my thought process makes sense, but to sum it up- Bane\'s men are loyal to him, he\'s loyal to Talia. They both lead the LoS, but the EvilPlan is her plan and accomplishes goals that are important to her personally.

EDIT:^ to the immediately above, Bane getting beaten was never part of the plan. Bruce escaping from the Pit at all was never part of the plan. However, the plan \\\'\\\'did\\\'\\\' seem to call for Batman to get overpowered and broken in hand-to-hand combat, which is Bane\\\'s specialty. Sure, Talia could have slipped the knife in Bruce\\\'s back after sleeping with him, but that wouldn\\\'t have been satisfying to her. He loses everything he owns, \\\'\\\'then\\\'\\\' he gets physically broken and sent to the Pit, \\\'\\\'then\\\'\\\' he watches his city fall apart and be destroyed, \\\'\\\'then\\\'\\\' he dies. Had he not escaped, I do imagine Talia would have left Gotham just before it blew and come to the Pit to reveal herself and finish Bruce off in person when he\\\'s at his lowest; his escape forced some improvising on both Bane and Talia\\\'s part.
