According to Justin Barrasso of SI.com, Vince McMahon was reportedly 'furious' with Shinsuke Nakamura over the botched exploder suplex spot with John Cena on last week's Smackdown Live. Here is an excerpt from the article:
“Yet Nakamura did not escape the wrath of McMahon, who has come to depend on Cena as the face of his company for the past decade. Despite McMahon’s anger, which was more in defense of Cena than it was an indictment of Nakamura, he has not lost faith in the Japanese star. However, if Nakamura makes another mistake on a grand stage, Sports Illustrated learned through channels close to WWE, then McMahon will have an entirely different opinion of Nakamura.” www.si.com/extra-mustard/2017/08/09/wwe-wrestling-news-shinsuke-nakamura-john-cena-vince-mcmahon

In fairness, it was a terrible botch that could have gone far worse than it did. So I can understand the reason for the 'wrath'.

Shut up Billy Graham. You'll be crying for a paycheck from Vince again soon enough. Also Vince should go. Cena knew it was not on purpose, Another reason I can't wait till HHH and Steph take over.

Is this the same Vince McMahon who allegedly told RVD after Kurt Angle took a Van Daminator right to his nose that Kurt "should learn to turn his head"?

I understand Vinces anger. At least Cena told Nakamura that accidents happen, not to be sorry. Nakamura felt pretty bad for the botch. Hopefully they dont lose hope on Nakamura, even though i have not been enjoying Nakamura on the main roster

If you weren't impressed with Shinsuke Nakamura before but were waiting for some kind of breakthrough moment, it seems that train has now sailed. Vince probably had his doubts, but after this, Nakamura is dead in Vince's eyes. By the end of the year, Vince will have Shinsuke in the worst spot Vince can envision, so low and so insignificant that Nak will never be able to shake off for the rest of his time at WWE.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome BREEZANGAMURA!

Hell Cena knew that. In the heat of the moment though I can understand Vince being furious. If Vince is still mad about it a month from now, that's crazy. But being mad that night is understandable. Also I love how Billy took a hard left turn and started talking about painting. |

I said it last week - Cena was more at fault for the botch than Nakamura was. Cena should've done a backflip and instead took the move like a back suplex. And the fact that Cena even told Nakamura not to worry about it shows that he has tremendous respect and didn't want him taking the heat for this. But logic doesn't apply to Vince McMahon.

I doubt Vince was "furious". He knows accidents happen. And as long as Cena wasn't upset, I doubt anyone else really was either.
As for Bill Graham... Mind your own business. You weren't there, you don't know, so stop trying to take cheap shots that may not be necessary.

I think this was a case more on Cena not following the move than Nakamura botching, because Nakamura didnt have a clear vision of what was happenning in his back. |

Ha ha ha okay, when as Cena EVER done a back flip in ANY of his matches?? Why would he try to even attempt one then?? Nakamura is sloppy. I thought that from day one. Didn't he dislocate Samoa Joe's jaw?? And he broke the face of Austin Aries with a kick. And now he almost destroys Cena.... the guy is horrible. I know many like Nakamura, but I am not entirely sure why?? |
