davidbix posted:Yes, although in Necro's case it's generally believed that it's as close to brain worms as it can possibly be without involving literal worms. He would talk with fans about his interest in leftist politics all the time. You could tell WWE did a lot for that Evolve show because the stream actually worked.

Necro got like 10 concussions just in the Guerilla Warfare match against Super Dragon and the finish was this gem of a bump: https://twitter.com/GlobalForceGold/status/1093779715696050176?s=19

It still sucks, but his brain is pudding now so of course he supports Trump.

I feel like there's an overcorrection happening since Moxley/Omega where people are going way too far acting like deathmatches aren't dangerous. Certainly scraping your back with barbwire is less dangerous than doing a diving headbutt or landing on mouse traps is less dangerous than taking an unprotected chair shot. But I think people are going a little over the top in defending the "safety" of death matches. A lot of the theatrics might be safer than they appear and its good to point out how dangerous "regular" wrestling is. But deathmatches by their nature encourage wrestlers to up the ante and do really stupid and dangerous poo poo. And yeah, that often includes stuff like unprotected chair shots and stiff punches and other head trauma to prove how tough the wrestlers are. Necro was big on that from what I saw.

Yeah, I absolutely would not argue that death match wrestling is safer. Just that death match wrestling can be safe if it wants to be and that your average death match and your average straight wrestling match are equally as dangerous.

Gumball Gumption posted:Yeah, I absolutely would not argue that death match wrestling is safer. Just that death match wrestling can be safe if it wants to be and that your average death match and your average straight wrestling match are equally as dangerous. I think a random, built up deathmatch like Omega/Moxley is probably in theory as safe as any other match because its gonna be gimmicked and controlled in the same way a cage or ladder or any big built up match would be. It comes down to what kind of spots they decide to do and you can decide to do a very reckless and dangerous spot on a ladder or cage match as easily as you could in a death match. Where I think its an obvious problem is with something like Tournament of Death where having a ton of talent doing a ton of contextless death matches just encourages them to try and one up each other and do the craziest poo poo to stand out. Especially since a lot of those guys are pretty limited and do death matches pretty exclusively so they're trying to one up themselves as well. Necro was in a never ending cycle of proving how tough he was and how many shots he could take.

Early/mid 2000's Tournament of Deaths and King of the Deathmatches had some amazingly dumb, unprotected poo poo that in hindsight I don't think anyone even relatively big-time in deathmatch wrestling would do anymore. I remember stuff like Necro just chucking a VCR out of the ring and into the back of Toby Klein's head and stuff.

It depends if you're Masashi Takeda chain wrestling in between light tube spots or if you're Jun Kasai jumping off the Korakuen Hall balcony. The thing with the Kenny/Moxley match getting handwringing about worker safety was that Kenny was probably safer doing gimmicky deathmatch spots than he was trading dumb neckdrops with Naito or Ibushi in matches that Big Dave and almost everyone else loved.

I should really go back to the early/mid 00s death match scene sometime and see if I still get any pleasure from watching that poo poo.

The spectacle of a man getting tossed through a light tube log cabin is timeless, so there's at least that. There are some good, violent brawls in there. Lot of poo poo too though. gently caress me if I'm ever gonna go back to watch an Ian Rotten match lol how did we ever collectively give a rat's rear end about that fucker.

For real though if I had to pick between getting a real punch in the face or a real staple, I'm picking the staple every time.

That's the thing with staples. They look nasty while having a low chance of actually doing permanent damage. I always liked when they stapled a dollar to the other guys head so you can really see it stuck there.

# ? Nov 29, 2019 01:03 |

You also need to think about the other aspects of a stapler spot, though. Did the person who loaded it do so with clean hands? Has it been used on anyone else to draw blood? How has it been stored? Were the same staples in the gun the last time it was used? It seems simple on the surface but I feel like there are a dozen different ways to get a gross infection if something went wrong along the way.

Getting stapled is one thing. Removing staples is goddamned awful.

I’ve rolled around in broke glass, I’ve been tear gassed, but getting punched sucks the worst imo. The closest I’ve been to getting stapled was stabbed by a #2 pencil in the hand. That was actually kinda funny. The tip broke off and I’ve had graphite lodged in my hand for over 20 years. I ended up taking a baseball bat to the guy that did it. Got the cops called on me and everything. Anyway, getting punched sucks and I don’t recommend it.

Punching is like fighting in that its this magical thing you think about when you're young because tv and movies have made it look so skilled and awesome and graceful. And then like some people actually get in a fight and all that romanticism and magic loving disappears and you realize it loving sucks. Or your brain breaks and you decide its fun and you want to do it for the rest of your life.
