5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (Nov 23)
1. The Most Insane Weapon Ever Used In A Wrestling Match
Even taking death match wrestling into consideration, what is the dumbest weapon ever used in the context of pro wrestling?
Glass is dumb, but is used for its gruesome visual and aural impact on the basis that, if the danger element is mitigated, the wrestler taking the bump is left with a series of shallow superficial cuts. It follows a similar principle to barbed wire. Fire is dumb, but the idea is that flash paper burns out as quickly as it ignites, like those times you hear Bret Hart's squalling entrance theme sting and temporarily forget that Natalya exists. Razorblades are dumb as f*ck. Cutting far deeper - look at the scar tissue on Jun Kasai's back - they border on Jonathan Coachman dumb. Triple H's sledgehammer is dumb, but at least it's a work. It's dumb because it is a preposterous penis extension of a gimmick, not something you can just about buy is found in the proximity of a wrestling ring - but not dumb because it inflicts real pain.
Mexican wrestler Angel o Demonio threw a brick at his opponent's head recently. He threw a shoot brick, using all of his force, to the back of some poor b*stard's head. This was a reprehensible act for which, mercifully, he has now been suspended indefinitely. His opponent, Cuervo, had to get a blood cot removed from his head, but happily, a benefit show was held for his recovery, to which we can all contribute.
Somewhere, Ryback is out there telling us marks that we can't criticise Angel o Demonio because we've never walked a mile in his shoes, marks!
