Watching Japanese fans scatter as a giant wrestler runs through them is the best way to convey chaotic energy. Wish we could see more of that in America.

Also knowing that Stan was basically blind, so he probably had no idea who he was going after but there's a mass of people running from him and by God he's gonna hit one of them! :lol:

Serious question: How blind was he really? Because the whole "He hit Vader so hard he popped his eye out because he couldnt see how far away he was" screams carney kayfabe to me. Was he blind in one eye? Did he have cataracts? Extreme farsightedness?

Cutler landed so perfectly in there that it just looked like someone fired up a video editor and free-transformed him straight into Cage's arms.

Cutler positioned himself perfectly, but holy hell that would've been a nasty header if Cage didn't catch him right.

There's an argument for Brandon Cutler being the best enhancement talent in the business today.

(which is kind of a shame because I really like him and want him to be going for things like the TNT title, but BOY is he ever an excellent job guy)

I don’t really want them to push Brandon much beyond where he’s at now because then they’d have to replace him with a much worse Top Jobber

True.

Probably wouldn't hurt to give him a couple of victories over guys at around his level of the undercard, though. If they're not going to use the Hollywood Honk as more than a Dark/Elevation guy he could have a fun feud with Cutler.

Peter and Brandon really are amazing how much they are the opening match PWG guys who never got above the level of being solid in the opener and yet somehow have good careers.

Overall it's good that wrestlers can't assault fans who act up, but boy did it rob the energy of them leaving the ring. Walk and brawl where they make sure to not get even near the fans is very different.

A cartwheel powerbomb? Owns.

I think I first saw the cartwheel driver from a woman named Ray about a decade ago. Honestly shocked the move isn't stolen more often.

Both of them make more sense to me upon learning that he dresses as Spider-man to visit kids in hospitals.
