12 Most Paused Moments In AEW History
12. Ruby Soho's Sickening Landing On Her Neck
Unfortunately kicking things off with a few accidental moments of horror, the night of All Out 2022 was one to forget for Ruby Soho.
Taking on Tay Melo and Sammy Guevara alongside Ortiz in a pre-show match booked to replace the originally planned Guevara vs. Eddie Kingston showdown - one scrapped due to the pair's backstage altercation coming into the event - Soho ultimately suffered two awful botches in the bout. Both of these soon found themselves being paused and rewound by those honestly worried about the unfortunate star... or just the morbidly curious.

Firstly, after being hung up on 'The Spanish God's shoulders, Ruby was booted to the ground by Tay, but ended up landing incredibly awkwardly on her neck, crumpling in an entirely unnatural position as she connected with the canvas.
Fans immediately feared the worst. However, the seriously tough soul soldiered on. And her rewards for doing so? Having her nose completely exploded by a Tay-KO knee to the face for the finish.
It only gets worse with each subsequent pause and rewind of an unintentionally savage finish which saw Soho - who'd note how she couldn't breathe out of her nose for a few months while recovering - struggling to keep her shoulders down as she clutched her destroyed face during the three-count.
