While I respect the hell out of Superstar Billy Graham, I’ll have to disagree with him on this one. Shane McMahon was willing to sacrifice himself just to put on a hell of a show. He didn’t care how hurt he was gonna get, he wanted to entertain the fans in a big way and he was willing to hurt himself in order to make it happen. Yes, wrestling is fake, scripted and a lot of moves are just acrobatic stunts but what Shane did here was pretty ballsy so I give a lot of respect for Shane for doing this move.
If you disagree with Shane on doing this risky move, why don’t you say that to Mick Foley? Mick Foley is a hardcore wrestling legend who put his life on the line many times just to put on a show. Mick Foley even lost an ear ’cause of a match he had with Vader. Mick Foley had many real life injuries just to put on a hell of a show.
After Shane’s match with the Undertaker at ‘Mania 32, I have even more respect for Shane McMahon now. Shane was willing to risk his life just to put on a show for us, he didn’t care what it took.
I think Billy Graham is just jealous of Shane ’cause Billy couldn’t do something like that.
I don’t know if Shane is really hurt ’cause of that jump but I’m pretty sure he’s beat up a little bit. Either way Shane didn’t care. Once again, he was willing to do anything to put on a show and that’s what he did it for.
I wish Shane would stick around longer but looks like his match at WM-32 is a one-off for him. He just returned part-time. Thank you, Shane, and I hope Shane does another match for us at WM-33 next year. I think next year should be Shane vs. Vince, would be cool.
