Benoit dropping Sabu right on his head (broken neck)


Brock dropping A Train on his melon (note Taz's reaction)


Nash overestimates his own strength (bad for business?)

Back in the days alot of these neck breaking moments used to happen but not anymore.

The wrestlers are better trained nowadays I assume, now all the botches is about messing up the words when speaking or failing to catch your opponent like Miz.

I think a lot of it (in WWE) is because of the watered down moves. The WWE doesn't want to risk injuries so they limit guys to doing relatively safe moves and spots.

i think the owen hart steve austin one was the hardest ive ever seen

I'm with this the owen hart/SCSA was brutal.

Even harder to watch as SCSA was booked to win and he had to roll up pin for the win after Hart had to show boat for him to recover I've watched it maybe three times but can't watch it.

It goes to show Austin is a legit tough bastard to even carry on after that.

Thats whats shocking about it he must be in so much pain yet manages to crawl to his knees across the ring grab Hart and roll him up. It makes me cringe because It's crazy that he manages that.

I'm guessing he wasn't feeling much in the way of pain, he probably just didn't have much feeling in his body, which is obviously a much worse sign.
