Moves like that aren’t all that uncommon, which is why the guy in the green tights died from complications related to his neck being broken during a match. Guys who get concussions every week, who put their bodies on the line in the hopes of getting nothing more than a reaction from the crowd, can’t help but love that.
But then again, I also love companies like Chikara, where they just don’t give a damn about that. Where they want nothing more than to have fun with the audience.

HAW!
Absolutely fantastic.
It’s not fake for everyone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvTNyKIGXiI
God dammit, that guy lives near me. Also, my classmate’s mom was the wrestler “Desire”. Wrestling sure was real when it destroyed her back.
I love how the lettering in the second panel looks like broken rocks. Excellent touch.
It’s so broken I didn’t even see it. Im being serious.
and that’s when he realised… your blows have to actually connect to hurt someone.
Wrestling is scripted, not fake. For example, the following link is called the “Kawada Driver” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZCro0BMF1Y
