That still seems like a weird choice for how Styles won that match.

That Naomi submission looks so bad. Carmella's is ugly too, but I can't even figure out what body part Naomi's is supposed to be hurting.

It's a stretch. She traps the opponent's arms with her legs, wraps her arms around the back of the opponent's neck and then pulls them in opposite directions.

Dean did say he couldn't help but root for Slater to beat the Miz, too, because Slater was such a nice guy.

Looking at it again, Cena managed to tuck his head in super far and take most of the bump on his shoulder.

Dude knows how to bump. That could've been real scary.

shibata, yeah.

dude was handing out shoot headbutts and made his brain explode.

tbh shibata's extremely lucky he only hosed himself doling out headbutts like that to the loving 29 year old company ace.

a new study bible! posted:

That's what I saw too. Was Cena supposed to take that on his belly or on his back? Don't people usually take that move on their belly when Nak flips them?

Yeah, everybody takes the reverse exploder on their belly. I guess he just under-rotated - Cena's probably not used to getting flipped through the air that much.

Sasha uses it but not as a finisher.

Xavier DID win once with it like loving a year and a half ago. Pretty sure he pinned the Vaudevillains with it.
