Christian is a fan of the little things in a match and picked up on Omega's selling during his recent match with Tetsuya Naito in the G1.

Omega tells of how he knows there's a wrestler way to sell an injury but he likes to focus on how somebody would react to a blow in everyday life. This lets him know if an injury is going to bother him for a couple of seconds or for the rest of a match he's in.

He does this because he doesn't want to insult the intelligence of anybody that has actually been injured and looking at it the way he does helps evoke an emotional attachment from the crowd.
