WWE does not care and neither does its audience. You have to be deigned the brass ring holder to get the part timer god push. Everyone else is just part of the meat grinder.

lmao why the gently caress would you catch it like that. That's on Jade, nia haters stay mad. Just put your hands up flat, Nia hits your palms, everything is good.

Though really really in a company that blocks every single thing out and brags about their safety it's on the company

Those two actually thought they could coordinate well enough to catch a chair mid swing without Jade getting hit.

Good job no selling a legit hit though.

At least when they were just untrained they still had knees by the end of it too

The PC has definitely done a lot of damage in ways that are probably gonna get a book written on someday

Women are more naturally predisposed to ACL injuries than men, so if you want them to wrestle athletically like the men (early in the women's revolution I think the idea was to literally just train them like men), they're going to be taking greater risks. AEW's obviously had injuries too, including ACL tears, but I do think they should tone down on some of the riskier spots on NXT until they're sure the talent is ready to do them properly, especially because they're not making main roster money yet to appropriately compensate them for the risk.

Knee injuries tend to happen because you stepped down a bit weird while kicking, or fumbled a dice roll while jumping casually down the apron, or something stupid like that. Off hand, I can't remember any ACL tear that happened because of a particularly risky move. (not saying that there aren't some)

I think the goon consensus is that they do probably a way too much weight training at the PC, which raises the risk, but that's speculation.

A few of their best prospects have been gymnasts which, when you think about it, makes sense why people so good at gymnastics would be good at wrestling.
