Is it called the 'Rollins Scale' now?

Since arriving on WWE TV back in 2012, Seth Rollins has given something of a masterclass in taking absolutely ridiculous bumps. The man has athleticism that is scarcely believable, and puts a flourish into receiving offence that routinely makes his opponents look like complete beasts. It isn't going to lend itself to a long career, so enjoy Rollins while you can.

The death-wish bumps began early in WWE for the former Tyler Black. In The Shield's very first televised match, a six-man tag against Ryback and Team Hell No at WWE TLC 2012, the big bump of the match saw Ryback pull Rollins off a ladder in the entrance-way, dropping him through a number of tables in the process.

Somehow Seth survived this without a concussion or worse, and has since gone on to make 'death-wish bumps' his general calling card.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
