Thank you, am I getting this right?

Moving example.com from registrar to AWS

1. Register Hosting Zone in AWS (example.com)

2. Initiate the transfer for example.com, get to the part where they ask for Auth code

3. Initiate the transfer on registrar side, get the Auth code.

4. Enter the Auth code on AWS side.

5. Done?

I am pretty sure that's what I did but after Step-4 that whole thing with goodprizwomen.com happened. Or did I miss something?

That is the normal order of things. Probably the best you could do would be to open a case with Amazon and your current registrar and see if they can figure out where it went sideways.
