Neither was hurt (though Banks is apparently taking time off to nurse lingering injuries) but both have had shocking, if non-career-threatening, accidents in recent matches. In the first half of the show, Sasha Banks and Enzo Amore - two of the highest-upside young stars in the company - took gnarly spills that looked accidental and scary. For the fan, it’s distilled down to this: would you rather have your favorite wrestler be boring and be around forever, or be thrilling and burn out quickly?Īfter an interminable and frequently thrilling SummerSlam weekend, it’s a more pertinent question than ever.
Wwe moves that actually hurt pro#
The argument between Bryan and the Miz is at the very core of pro wrestling. The Miz yelled at Bryan as host Renee Young and the Miz’s wife, Maryse, looked on awkwardly until Bryan walked off the set. I am here each and every week." As he spoke, he regained his villainous composure, but the words were real: Bryan wrestled a rough, realistic, demanding style, and injuries plagued him until he was forced into retirement in February after 16 years in the business. I don’t get injured for six months to a year. "The reason that I wrestle the way I wrestle is because I can do it day in and day out all the time for 10-plus years. It’s planned out in broad strokes the wrestlers are just ad-libbing their lines.) But he turned it around on Bryan deftly. (Over the past month, WWE has demarcated certain formats - like Talking Smack - for old-school, unscripted content. The Miz was visibly shaken by the comment, and his response was sputtering at first - and clearly unscripted. But there’s no denying that he’s a cartoonish dinosaur in the modern WWE, where PPV main events more closely resemble 2005 New Japan or Ring of Honor than the sad, baby-oiled porridge that WWE was often churning out during the previous decade. He’s come a long way since then, sure, and there’s an undeniable boo-able magnetism in his retro stylings. As Brandon Stroud pointed out almost four years ago, the Miz wrestles like a person pretending to be a wrestler. Bryan went on to say that Miz represents the soft, clichéd archetype of a WWE wrestler from the era before Bryan and his ilk from the global and indie scene infiltrated the main event.
Now, that might sound like a pretty normal thing for a babyface to say to a heel, especially one who has dodged his share of physicality in his career.
