5 Times WWE's Stage Was Destroyed
3. Braun Strowman Tackles Bobby Lashley Through The LED Wall
"Holy Sh*t" - Corey Graves
Corey Graves summed up this incredible moment really well with just those two words.
As Lashley was posing in front of the LED wall, Strowman charged at him shoulder first, sending both men through the stage. Sparks flew everywhere as all the electrical equipment behind the stage was demolished.
The shock value of this moment made it unique, as previous entries on this list had little bits of build up, like Orton getting in the car, or Rhyno gesturing for Jericho to stand up. Whereas here, Strowman went from a downed position to immediately sprinting at Lashley.
When they got to the LED wall it looked sturdy enough to give the illusion that they really broke through a hard surface, as nothing takes you out of the moment more than when someone goes through a wall that’s clearly made out of cardboard.
Further authenticity was added with fire rescue teams getting rid of the sparks, the use of different camera angles, and unrelated superstars wishing them both well throughout the show.
Those touches of reality elevated the segment.
