I accidentally did a version of Delirious' Shadows over Hell. My dad was play wrestling with my brother and I, and he was sorta using his arms to stand up, and I drilled him in the back of the head with an elbow from the top of the couch. My dad said later on when recounting it that he felt really off afterwards, I might have concussed him

I went to a pretty posh private Presbyterian boys' school. There was a grassy area behind the library that us nerds hung out, and I put one of my friends in a Crippler Crossface. Apparently it really hurt. Years later, when that thing went down, I remember reading somewhere that Benoit put his kid in the crossface, and I remembered that incident, and thinking "hahaha, oh gently caress." I also made one of cousins cry when I put him in a Boston crab. edogawa rando fucked around with this message at 08:01 on Feb 10, 2023 |

When Ken Anderson was in WWE there were reports that he was unsafe to work with because something about how he took people’s moves? If I’m remembering correctly can someone elaborate what moves was he taking wrong and who had issues with it?

If I’m remembering correctly can someone elaborate what moves was he taking wrong and who had issues with it? Basically anything with a carry. He would struggle sell because he thought it was more interesting / realistic (and he's right). Unfortunately since most moves with a lift require cooperation instead of the Ken Kennedy method of flailing around it tended to make things more difficult and less safe. I don't really have specific examples because i had checked out of wrestling by then

I remember reading that he would do poo poo like squirm around and poo poo when moves were being set up, making it more difficult to do them safely, and dropped Orton on his shoulder/neck area pretty much days after he'd come back from a long injury lay-off. That plus he would do dumb poo poo like go on TV and be all like "I'm not on steroids no sir, I'm squeaky clean" and then get caught in the Signature Pharmacy scandal.

I remember him yelling "tazzmission!" & the next thing I know I'm waking up on the ground with people surrounding me, having somehow faceplanted the two of us through one of those thick science classroom tables:  Couple years later I took a DDT and by the grace of god I didn't break my fuckin neck, but I apparently sold it like poo poo and it hurt like hell so despite being a life-altering near-miss it was still a disaster. Nystral posted:When Ken Anderson was in WWE there were reports that he was unsafe to work with because something about how he took people’s moves? If I’m remembering correctly can someone elaborate what moves was he taking wrong and who had issues with it? His thinking was "I shouldn't just be going along with eating a powerbomb or a suplex or whatever, if it's a real fight I should be struggling to escape these predicaments!". So he'd struggle & squirm about, and while it did look slightly better than a ready & willing participant jumping wholeheartedly into getting planted, it also made him really hard to safely hang on to. This meant he injured the people he worked with (Cena tore his pec giving him a hip toss because he was too busy making it look difficult to actually get in the air & Cena essentially ended up shoot hiptossing a 246 pound man) & he'd also injure himself because instead of giving his opponent a safe, cooperative partner he'd flail around and end up getting dropped awkwardly (torn lat, shoulder injury on a house show, "tricep tear"...).

A "friend" of mine put me in an armbar when we were waiting in line at a public pool, and after that I can't tell you what happened because my concussed brain wiped the few seconds of memory formed before I fell and banged my head on the concrete. I still have a bump on the back of my skull.

Ken Anderson is the guy you can't do a stalled vertical suplex to. I don't know if anybody ever tried, but god help them if they did. More than most other wrestling moves, the stalled vertical suplex requires cooperation and a fuckton of body tension from both people involved. That's what makes it so impressive when guys like Big Show take one, it's not just about the strength of the guy delivering, but a genuine athletic feat to take it. And that is what makes it look great despite looking "fake". Ken Anderson would just waggle around like a sack of wet poo poo in an attempt to make it look "realistic", threatening to get himself into a shoot brainbuster and/or hurting his partner. It's an awful and selfish concept of selling and ring psychology.

What's the earliest (and any notable) examples of somebody Hulking Up? No selling an opponent's offence after having their rear end kicked all match. Road Warrior Hawk used to no-sell the pile-driver and stand straight up afterwards. I only ever saw him do this in the WWF where it received zero reaction, but apparently this was a big thing back in the day. Did Jerry Lawler have some kind of Hulk up come back in Memphis?

I think that's because everywhere but the WWF the piledriver was treated like a kill shot - and was 'banned' in Memphis for ages - but in the WWF it was just another move.

I grabbed a prone friend's legs and was going to do the catapult move where you fall back and they go up and over you, but for some reason he thought the way to do the move was to go deadweight so I just ended up tweaking the hell out of his lower back.

She was Teddy Long's assistant and got promoted to GM by Vince when Teddy had a heart attack at his own wedding. Then she began helping out Edge before revealing they were in a relationship and building a stable around him.

Putting her with the number 1 heel in the company, in a neckbrace and a wheelchair, suggested that they didn't initially have much faith in her as a natural heel.

If you mean Edge it was a sign they had a ton of faith in her because they knew Edge being put with this woman they portayed as annoying and ugly and hatable for these reasons would get a ton of heat, and it did.

A slightly more fleshed out timeline: Summer 2005: Vickie becomes an on-air character pleading for peace between Eddie and Rey Mysterio, then pleading for her husband to stop tearing their families apart, ultimately assisting Rey to maintain custody of his son in the ladder match at Summerslam November 2005: Eddie dies Wrestlemania Season 2006: Rey Mysterio wins the Rumble and the world title in loving memory of Eddie Guerrero, with Chavo by his side. Rey goes on to have a historically terrible reign, with Chavo there encouraging him to cheat to hold onto the belt. May 2006: Rey refuses to cheat, so Chavo cheats to cost Rey the title, and they start a feud. Summer 2006: Vickie again emerges to plea for peace between the Guerreros and Mysterios, but eventually it's revealed as a ruse and she turns heel in solidarity and a love of cheating with her nephew and late husband. The Guerreros feud with Rey Mysterio and Chris Benoit over how they are riding on the coattails of Eddie's legacy. By the end of 2006, Chavo turns on Vickie for messing up the family cheating business and getting him disqualified once too often. This temporarily writes her off as an on-screen character. Summer 2007: Kristal Marshall begins dating Smackdown GM Teddy Long and convinces him to bring a contrite Vickie back as an assistant. Vickie begins to exert more control over the show as Teddy and Kristal plan their wedding. During their on-screen wedding ceremony, Teddy Long has a heart attack and "slips into a coma" and this was implied to be a devious plan set up by Kristal and ???? but this was right before she and Bobby Lashley walked out/got fired/quit so it was never followed up on. November 2007: After having been named the GM of Smackdown because of Teddy Long's wedding coma, she turns heel and reveals that she's dating Edge and using her power to help him regain the world title. She kept wearing neckbraces and being in wheelchairs mostly because Vince could not resist having the Undertaker and other babyfaces attack her and do finishing moves on her.
