10 High Flying WWE Stunts You Needed To See To Believe
You will believe a man can fly!
Way back on October 17th, 1983, Jimmy Superfly Snuka stood on the top of a steel cage in Madison Square Garden, flashed his I love you hand-gesture and delivered a Superfly Splash from the top of the cage to a prone Don Muraco. That night inspired dozens of future wrestlers and set the bar for high-flying stunts performed in a wrestling ring. Since then, that bar has been raised countless times by men and women seeking the thrill of competition and the rush of entertaining a crowd. Over the years, wrestlers have put their bodies on the line in the service to the sport. Fans have been wowed as they jump from turnbuckles, ladders and even the titantron to perform some of the flashiest, most athletic manoeuvres youve ever seen in any sport. These moves often cause as much, if not more damage to the instigator as they do the opponent. Its all about innovation and entertainment. Some of these moves are so daring, so unbelievable, so impossible that you have to see witness them for yourself, if only just to prove that they happened. Here are ten of the most awe-inspiring, death-defying, high-flying stunts in the WWEs storied history.
