Here goes a pointless discussion  After the tragedy of owen, all be it in a different time of man and safety, are you shocked or less than shocked but still remotely supprised about: Shane's backlash and summer slam dives? and more recently cm-punks tease? this comes about me PM'ing Punk's Diet Soda (wweUKfan) about his sig of punk on the stage, to which he helpfully linked me to this youtube video: at first i was thinking about wwe risking this star should he fall, especially after owen, and this PG stuff, and H&S at work (h&s at is apart of my college course at the moment) and remembered about shane's jumps.... but then he revealed his harness and implemented it itno his skit/sketch, So aside from asking what other high risk moments do you remember (tna jeff hardy off stage to floor on abyss lying on a table, as in another users avatar) was you supprised about these men or shane going that high onto the stage? many thanks |

This, and although not as brutal but Shane's leap off the PPV (can't remember the PPV name) titantron structure against Kane in a last man standing match. |

I was really suprised with Punk going to the top of the stage. Seemed to have some guts involved there.

He was prob. rigged up there somehow so even if he did fall he didn't fall fall and get seriously hurt. I mean There was a mini stage up there for him so why not a line too?

I'm not necessarily "shocked" by any of these moments... actually, the only shock from me was seeing Punk on the stage yesterday. Even though he didnt jump, the promo was very unlike PG.
But Owen's accident was completley unrelated to these risks. Owen's fall was an unplanned botch. Shane's jumps, were controlled, planned spots. It's a good thing that WWE knows accidents happen, and that shouldnt take away from what need's to be done to put on an entertaining show.

There is no difference to Shanes tron jump to a spring board hurricaranna, They both have high risk. The tron might seem as risky because its higher, but you can just as easily slip off the top rope as you can of the tron. Wrestling has risks, if WWE stopped them from doing it then it wouldnt be wrestling.
So to answer you question. No I am not suprised...

Very good point, but it's just seems a bit tougher to pull a spot like those off. |

No I am not suprised... i see your point as indy shows have had ropes snap on a spring board and the wrestler land so bad, however thats what happens thats fine, as far as your last bit i see that as exagerative, as theres a difference between an possible awkward slam and a 40+ft high dive.... both high risk but ones(literally) higher than the other  This, and although not as brutal but Shane's leap off the PPV (can't remember the PPV name) titantron structure against Kane in a last man standing match. Unforgiven 2003 i believe, i forgot about that thanks  He was prob. rigged up there somehow so even if he did fall he didn't fall fall and get seriously hurt. I mean There was a mini stage up there for him so why not a line too? he was in a harnace as i said and he too, haha |
