I still remember them milking the shit out of Shawnβs concussion in the mid 90βs. Wasnβt there a match where Owen hit him with an arm enziguri and he just collapsed afterwards?

Danielson's selling is amazing. I feel like in every one of his matches I think he's legit hurt at some point until he explodes back off the mat. There are so many great examples just in this last year with AEW.
I can understand being annoyed by it when you're legit concerned about a dudes safety but I love performances that help me suspend disbelief like that.

As long as the wrestler wants to do it, go for it. If the promotion or someone else is telling them to do it and they don't want too, that's not cool.
Like Matthew Justice taking head shots.

This was such an underrated segment, but like most stuff with WCW they never really did anything with the angle.

I truly wonder what he's gonna be like in 10 years, you can talk all the shit you want about how the rules of C.T.E don't apply to you blah blah but at the end of the day the rules of C.T.E apply to everyone. One things for sure, that boy got super over all over the country taking the nastiest chair shots to the head. What a business!

Also Dwight Howard had a WWE tryout. Heβs the most unlikable guy in the NBA.

Fuckin nepotism. Sickening.
Jk. I donβt hate hook as much as I used to but I still donβt buy him as an unstoppable force when heβs like 5β7β 150 lbs

I think they're starting to get away from booking him like that. The match with Starks was short but it was an actual match where he took some lumps. I think they've handled him really well, so far.

Fuuuuuck look at those shots! You can see Kane wanted to do his no sell, monster shtick but looked a little wobbly then tried to get Vader to stop. Shawn Michaels being a bitch to Vader and then WWE burying him for 2 years because of it will always be a wrestling crime.

Vader still had tons of gas in the tank too, he had a whole revitalization in NOAH only a few years later
for the heavy metal enthusiasts, his NOAH theme hauls so much ass. reminds me of Savatage or something

All the wrestlers from the 80's and early 90's were hosses. I wish the zoomer and millenial generation of wrestlers would focus more on gaining mass. Sorry but when there's two guys beating the crap out of each other and they both look like Ogre's from world of Warcraft it's a thousand times more believable. Like the Big Show said "it's an upper body business."

Yeah itβs kinda crazy now that when we actually get 2 big beef boys slapping the fuck out of each other itβs like a novelty when it used to be much more the norm.
