True and I imagine they wanted it to be like previous Darby and Sting multimans they've done on PPV but this match didn't really have the right pieces

Sting no selling a table splash is a bit much. Darby didnt do a lot of his spots. Jericho hit a cool elbow counter. Sammy tried. Suxuki felt out of place at times

that was 100% a botch I'm convinced, he was supposed to move and didn't in time lol that explains the no selling and you can see it in the replay too

i can tell you it looked like he tried to roll back but failed n took it from my angle but it was fast. Weird night for turnbuckle moves

 

[Comrade Khan]

But like just improv n sell still lel

 

[Comrade Khan]

Looked sick tho

Yeah I've seen it in slow mo and I believe his thoughts were "oh shit gotta move oh shit I can't ahhh fuck"

 

[Hoss]

It's not unusual for Sting to just no sell anyways. Whether he should or not is a different discussion I suppose lol.

 

[Hoss]

But yeah I said at the moment when it happened that I thought he intended to move out of the way

 

[Comrade Khan]

At least no one is hurt

 

[Chris]

I didn't notice and haven't seen a clip since but apparently Sting took a cutter from Sammy before it where he landed bad and after the table spot people thought he was concussed, I'm assuming he's also fine since he's booked for tomorrow tho lol

 

[Hoss]

I think people might just think that because he's old and gets exhausted quickly. He usually don't look so hot by the ends of these matches anyways

[Samoa Looch]

I forgot.
