Batista almost ruins Benoit's career

[Guest rawmvp]

Chris Benoit defeated Batista. Chris Benoit almost didn't survive his (kind of) RAW debut match, due to a botched powerbomb attempt by Batista. Otherwise another solid Benoit bout

 

Can you believe this?

[JoeDirt 0]

Yep. Botched spots happen.

[Guest rawmvp]

Yeah, but Batista is a serial botch artist. He seriously needs to be sent to OVW.

How long before this topic is about 50 "Fuck Batista!" posts?

[Guest FrigidSoul]

that's why I call Batista "Capn' Fuck-Up"

 

too much focus nowadays is put on building one's physique and not enough on learning how to safely execute moves.

I don't remember reading about Batista messing up a spot before.

 

This stuff does happen and is one of the dangers in wrestling. Everyone who wrestles knows this, along with most people who watch it.

[Guest rawmvp]

He almost killed RVD...twice.

[Guest FrigidSoul]

I don't remember reading about Batista messing up a spot before.

There was a Monday Night Raw where I thought Batista killed Shawn Michaels because he whipped him up so fast for the sit-out Powerbomb that he lost his grip while falling with him and Michaels landed on the back of his neck and just didn't move. Incidently that's the last time I remember seeing Capn' Fuck-up use the sit-out powerbomb...from there it was just a regular lift and drop the man version.

Was Benoit trying that counter the powerbomb with the crossface in the air move?

When?

I think that was one of the Raws that sucked, so I didn't see it.

Watch Armageddon 2002 and Batista fuck up the powerbomb on Kane.

[Guest KidKrash]

Sucks for Batista. He can't do any moves well. The crowd doesn't care about him.

 

WORLD TITLE PUSH IN 2004!

I still enjoy watching Batista more than Orton. But now he's paired up with Flair and not really doing a thing at all.......I mean I know he has the tag team titles, but they don't do much with those.

Damn, what a pity. Really.

 

Though, I'd rather see Batista getting the push Benoit is. *shrugs* They're both bland, but Batista has Flair to talk for him. Benoit gets to botch that on his own.

[Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0]

Who reported this anyway?

And why would you want Batista to get that push? You know when Benoit is going to put on consistently better matches and entertain the crowd more? There is no logic behind that at all....

[Guest Suicide King]

OK, I was AT this house show. First of all, Benoit was never in any danger of hurting anything other than his shoulder on this landing. I know that can be serious, but let's not pretend his spinal cord was about to unfray. Second of all, I love Benoit to death, but he botched the move, not Batista. Benoit attempted to spin around and turn the powerbomb attempt into a crossface, which didn't work. It ended up as more of a crucifix armbar. Batista even lifted up Benoit once again by that one arm, so Benoit could give it another shot, but both men wisely decided to cut their losses and do a short arm clothesline reversal instead.

 

Damned rumor mongers.

Benoit botched the move?

 

That's impossible.

 

Benoit doesn't botch moves...I mean, he can't cause he's Chris Benoit aka the God of Wrestling.

[Guest Suicide King]

I see through your sarcasm that you have made a breakthrough. Benoit, while near perfect, is not. He's still one of the best ever though.

[King Cucaracha 0]

So...what were you guys saying about Batista again? Shows what jumping to conclusions get you I suppose.

 

Anyway, who actually reported that?

[Guest TheAnvil]

He almost killed RVD...twice.

RVD botched those spots. On the first one, he attempted to roll over the top of the powerbomb into a sunset flip, and he slipped and fell on his melon. I can't exactly remember what happened in the other spot, but I remember watching the replay and remarking that RVD was to blame.

[TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0]

Shit happens. No one's hurt and that's the main thing.

[DerangedHermit 0]

Chirs Benoit proved fallible?

 

*world implodes, ceases to exist*

[Guest Ghettoman]

Well it's just good to see no one jumped the gun and just assumed every detail that wasn't presented....

 

Oh sorry I just read the first half of this thread, nevermind me......

[Guest Deebo]

Batista does suck though. I mean just watch any match hes in, he has no idea what hes doing. His timing in the ring is fucking awful.

Clearly if you didn't see it, it never happened

 

Who reported this anyway?

Why, rawmvp of course

[Guest Ghettoman]

Apparently it's not as bad as Benoits! *farts*

 

Get on people for instances and not a career, and Benoit /=/ God.

I believe I said I like Batista earlier in this thread..........that was what was going on down there......

The guy looks like a superstar, but I am so unimpressed with his in ring work so far. He's not hopelessly lost like Nathan Jones, but he needs to polish his work.

ya, but RVD can't really sell, so who's fault is it there?
