MonteCarl Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I thought the reports came out after we all knew Wade Barrett wasn't going to renew and "they" said that somebody else's contract also was coming up and that person was the one "the IWC woudn't be sad to see go" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kafkonia Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Why is it that, regardless of level of ability, most women wrestlers cannot run the ropes without looking awkward? Do you think it's just down to being shorter than most of the roster (and thus not the right height for the ropes) but not short enough to do the Rey Misterio "bounce of the second rope" approach?

The Comedian Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I think it's probably body mass even more than height. I know multiple wrestlers have said that hitting the ropes isn't nearly as easy as they make it look. And even a guy like Mysterio, as small as he is to other male wrestlers, he outweighs Sasha Banks by 60 lbs. It may just be too hard to get a good looking bounce off the ropes when you're 125 or under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree with this - your mind is expecting the ropes to "give" a bit when they run into them and it looks wrong when they don't - the ropes don't give much when you don't have a lot of body weight to put into it to begin with.

What ever happened with that? Anything? I'm wondering if perhaps Ryback's contract is up soon, especially with him being pushed to the pre-pre-Mania show and losing to Kalisto in the match. He hasn't done much of anything the last few months. According to falconarrow on reddit, it was Brie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Whoa. Fandango. I almost forgot Jericho put that dude over two years ago at Mania and didn't put A.J. over the other night. What a world...I mean Universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Jericho learned from Punk. If you wanna collect on a favor Vince owes you, make sure it's something he doesn't give a shit about. Beating some short southern guy with funny hair at Mania? Yeah, he'll do that. It's just not going to be the main event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may just be too hard to get a good looking bounce off the ropes when you're 125 or under. In addition to mass, it seems like it could also conceivably be a matter of physiology as well. If most of the impact from hitting the ropes is focused on the side of your body anyway, and most of wrestling is built on the concept of making the flattest surfaces to mix with the flattest parts of the body to minimize the injury...then it would stand to reason that male torsos, which tend to be a flatter line with anywhere from your waist up to your shoulder to hit the ropes on, are FAR more built to hit the ropes properly than a female torso (which are a more curved line than a man would be.)
