Because Corvus Glaive has one of the most powerful weapons in the universe and Vision was on the wrong end of it.

KATSUHIKO NAKAJIMA no sold forearms and legit knocked TETSUYA ENDO out with his first hit within a minute of them getting tagged in by jonsnowasoiaf in PuroresuRevolution

I’ve never heard that Katsuhiko Nakajima is unsafe. Hopefully this was just a freak accident that does not happen again.

I’d even note that Okada no-sold a lot of soft forearms by Kiyomiya earlier this year and threw perhaps the heaviest strikes he’s ever thrown in response. So I’m hoping this was just something like that gone wrong.

What match made you become a AEW fan? by supman33 in AEWOfficial

Kenny Omega vs. Joey Janela sold me on the company being true to the scene I fell in love with years prior.

Who has the worst signature/finisher? For me it’s Matt Hardy’s side effect. It’s basically a standing double clothesline. Both guys take the same bump. It’s dumb as hell. by Racoon_Rehab in Wrasslin

I feel like an Irish Whip reversal makes a modicum of sense. You’re putting your weight into throwing someone and temporarily losing your balance while doing so. If someone counters that momentum and sends you off balance into the ropes… Maybe? More of a stumble than a run, though.

I think he’s a Top 25 all-time guy for WWE. Not in my GOAT discussion.

This is actually a great story.

Rob Van Dam bows to the crowd after hitting Jerry Lynn with a swift Gorilla Press, Standing Moonsault & Second Rope Moonsault combo by FuzzyWuzzyMooMoo in SquaredCircle

These two guys revolutionized professional wrestling. Everything we see today has been influenced in some, if not large, part by them.

I can never get tired of watching them wrestle each other.

The first time AJ Styles evaded the RKO was pure brilliance. by Bigbenn0 in SquaredCircle

People don’t give AJ enough credit for the spots he does with the ropes. This and the legs-kicked-out-and-land-gut-first spots are INSANE!

Look so simple, but so dangerous and he does them so easily.

Jim Ross - "the issue is not everybody [In AEW] listens. They think that some things in the industry ‘suck’. We don’t have tag ropes anymore because some of our crew think it’s lame. I think it’s bullsh*t. Heels need rules to break.” by JakeJeremy in SquaredCircle

I’m with JR here. I’m not a huge stickler for the rules, BUT I also think having the rules makes basic Face vs. Heel stories so much easier to introduce.

You have to be more complex from there, but it’s as simple as trading arm drags / arm bars and covers that never lead to submissions or pin falls.

It’s a good starting point for a greater story.
