Also would be interested to know how much of this is from WBD or internal, if it's an internal thing I wouldn't be surprised if they give up on a lot of it fairly quick. Which I don't want to happen bc most of these I have no issue at all with

this is why I also posted the podcast that SRS did just now about it and tried to make things clear. but some ppl wont read and jump to a conclusion to try to get their terrible "diss" in for sure

I can’t say I’m a fan of the buckle spots being banned. Not just for the buckle bomb but there’s a lot of really cool moves involving throwing people backwards into a buckle.

I feel like those spots and the faking injury stuff id rather be case by case than outright banned but IG we will have to see how it shakes out. I can kind of get the no backwards no look head bumps into railing though. maybe it only means moves you cant brace yourself at all on going backwards

I've hated fake injury spots for awhile tbh, I know they wanna make you "believe" but it takes me out when they have the planned fake injuries where the ref has a break in the action when every match has spots that they DON'T stop any action that look just as bad. I don't like having to decipher whether an injury is a fake or a work bc they're doing the things they'd do if someone was legit hurt

Post match is fine, heel antics where they're obviously faking and quickly go back to attack also fine but don't try and work the smarks by throwing up x's mid match

Buckle bombs I agree I don't really see why but I can take or leave them so I'm not really gonna argue one way or another, just don't care enough lol

I guess the question is where do you draw the line between selling and faking an injury
