This Memphis/ECW invasion angle looks like it could do big business. Douglas and Lawler should have some cool brawls.

My immediate gut reaction is "Oh no Randy's gone" but then I realized that whoever loses this probably are doing so because they got signed somewhere

I assume the stip is that only whoever gets pinned leaves, but Randy runs his own monthly indie (Boom) in Vancouver now, so I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted out to focus on that.

But also, I don't think Evan Rivers has EVER wrestled in Defy before, so him losing and not being able to come back would be really funny. It's weird to see regional indies do completely different things, because in NEW, Evan is the champion and him and Travis hate each other, and Judas isn't in Travis's stable either.

That card's looking really good, I might make the trip down if there are still seats left by the time I get paid.

Maybe I'm missing it, but the one in the video doesn't look botched? At least not on the level as the GIF.

It's such a weird move anyway and relies on too many tangibles to work right. Can't really do it to someone taller than he is and has to rely on the other person to not dangle their legs too low for just a couple.

The one in the video he basically just kind of drops Fatu instead of guiding him down. His arm just ends up pushing Fatu’s head and you see him smack the back of his head on the mat and react.

Goto puts his arm lower and pushes his opponents body down instead of pushing their head down like Hammerstone

I watched the first 2 back in 2020 and the rest sporadically. I do want to mention that the "Siamese Twin" fights are actually just 2 people in one shirt fighting 2 other people wearing one shirt and they aren't actually conjoined twins. I think they are funny (ie the "spinny poo poo only" fights) but I can fully say I can see why people wouldn't like it.
