Running powerbomb

 

[OGDirtyD]

Good thing they moved away from that bullshit.

Did they tho? Buddy was still doing it. I never was a fan but felt horrible for him when he got paralyzed.

Running powerbomb

Damn. Still though. It only takes one wrong adjustment and you're dead or in a wheelchair for life. Wrestlers are incredible athletes that don't get enough credit for the risks they take to put on a performance.

The "wReStLinG is FaKe" crowd dont understand lol

Someone pointed this out in a video....the issue with d lo doing the running powerbomb is that he struggled with it when his opponent weighed just as much as him or heavier....droz was little bigger than him at that time

RIP Droz dude seemed happy in his later years.

 

[PhenomTheMac]

If I remember correctly the mat was wet and Dlo slipped on it and the rest is history.

Droz never blamed him though and always was gracious when talking about it.

Matches involving Roman Reigns, Ronda Rousey, Logan Paul, and Cody Rhodes are currently planned for next month's WWE SummerSlam.

According to our Dave Meltzer, the following six matches are planned:

• Roman Reigns vs. Jey Uso
• Cody Rhodes vs. Brock Lesnar
• Trish Stratus vs. Becky Lynch
• Asuka vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Bianca Belair
• Gunther vs Drew McIntyre
• Ronda Rousey vs. Shayna Baszler

Additionally, Logan Paul is expected to wrestle at SummerSlam. Meltzer wrote that the plan is for Paul to have an "in-ring showcase" but it's not clear who he will be facing.

From Meltzer:

Logan Paul is on the show. As of yesterday, he was not planned to face LA Knight as the plan was to give him an opponent for a showcase in-ring match. Just coming off TV, I figured Knight made the most sense and nothing is official until it's announced. That still leaves openings for people like Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn and probably Edge, who returns on Friday night in MSG.

The 36th annual SummerSlam takes place on Saturday, August 5th at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. It is the first time the event has taken place in the city since 1993, which was headlined by Lex Luger vs. Yokozuna, The Undertaker vs. Giant Gonzalez, and Bret Hart vs. Jerry Lawler.

A Paul vs Ricochet match kinda makes sense too. Wasn't expecting Drew vs Gunther/Ronda vs Shayna/Roman vs Jey. But we all kinda figured a Bianca vs Asuka/Charlotte match was gonna happen. Triple threat makes the most sense.

Roman vs Jey after Jey pinned him, that was a no brainer to do

Ronda leaving so she's gonna put Shayna over on her way out

 

[OGDirtyD]

Auska needs a big W in that triple threat.

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

Auska needs a big W in that triple threat.

I think she gets it

Bianca / Charlotte doesn’t need the belt right now or at all really

We get Asuka / Iyo finally

They're both coming off title reigns, time to let these other women cook. It's been time for Shayna to hold one of those titles
