Within 3 minutes, I got 2 messages to this clip. Essentially both were "dude got murdered on powerbomb to concrete in Tampa in front of x amount of people". I tweeted it and split the difference (15). Some people got upset. Here& #39;s the clip. Again, most miss the point.

Well, I& #39;m upset too. Wrestling, as a whole, is in the dumpster regardless of how you want to spin it. There are some really cool things out there but they& #39;re very few and far between. Every day wrestling devolves more and more. The 2 in this clip could be phenomenal workers but

No one is going to know that because this is all they& #39;ll remember (until tomorrow when someone else does something stupid). This could be a big opportunity for them and this is something they felt they needed to do to get noticed or go viral. Meme circus bullshit, getting gif& #39;d

/going viral has become more important than the actual wrestling. Look, wrestling is dangerous no matter what you do. I once broke my leg on baseball slide, it get it. But not one person said don& #39;t do it/talked them out of this. Wrestling has become more about poppin the locker

Room than it has about creating an emotional connection with the crowd. Simple psychology says don& #39;t do this. It& #39;s a one off match. It& #39;s not an escalated feud that needs something even 1/10th this dangerous to end things. Anyone notice the "crazier" things have gotten, the

Smaller the crowds have gotten and how much less interest there is in wrestling? Which sucks because wrestling, at it& #39;s best, good vs. evil with a emotional invested crowd is the coolest thing in the universe but you have to live outside the Twitter echo chamber to see that

I& #39;ve wrestled in front of crowds that are there to just see some "wrasslin& #39;" and I& #39;ve wrestled in front of "smart" crowds. Give you one guess which one draws substantially more on a consistent basis. Anyways, I& #39;m veering off into adding 20 more pages to this but I

And am extremely passionate about it and want to see it thrive.
To those who "insulted" me, no hard feelings. Hope you feel better. Well, hard feelings to the guy who wanted to insult my wife with a snarky comment. Chances are we will never meet, but if we do, I& #39;m going to
