I enjoy AEW for the most part but I can also enjoy this:

Well that settles it. I'm no longer a fan of AEW.

some of those were real ugly, but then others weren't really botches

my god that was brutal to watch all together...wtf happened to Alex Reynolds? Was he partially paralyzed? Why didn't they just go to a finish right way - there was still a 2-count even after he was just lying there.

I love AEW, and I love a good botch clip-fest.

That Reynolds bit gets me angry every time I see it. The fact that none of the wrestlers try to check on him, because they're more focused on just doing the match they had set is bad enough, but the fact that Rick Knox as the referee never even gives a second look towards him is disgusting. One of the jobs of a referee is to keep an eye out of the possibility of a wrestler being injured during a match, and determining if the match needs to stop, or help needs to be called. Thankfully Reynolds ended up being ok, but for all they knew, he could have had a severe concussion, could have broken his neck, and no one gave two craps about it. It's a good thing it wasn't his neck, because Blade pulling him to the corner could have made it worse.
And the sad thing is, lots of these botches are part of the problem of wrestling as a whole today, most want to go a mile a minute, and can't work on the fly, where if something doesn't go as they plan, they just keep going what they had planned, and match stuff look even worse.

Botch #101. AEW Unrestricted with special guest Mark Herny. I'm dying laughing at the type on the graphic of it.

Alot of AEW guys aren't ready for the big time and these videos show it. I know that everyone has botches, but some of these are horrible. Alex Reynolds just laying there while everyone wrestled around him is bush league.

"Did they handle it wrong? No, they handled it perfectly.". From Alex Reynolds himself.

Alex Reynolds just laying there while everyone wrestled around him is bush league. Taking botches compiled one after another and trying to pretend it makes the wrestlers horrible/not ready for the big time is like watching a blooper reel and saying those actor's aren't ready for TV. Inb4 "actor's get multiple takes". You could create this exact video with literally any promotion in the world. |

"Did they handle it wrong? No, they handled it perfectly.". From Alex Reynolds himself. Knocked out. Dragged across the ring without anyone knowing if he has a neck or spine injury. Then they continue to wrestle around him causing the ring to bounce moving him around even more. That was bush league bullsh*t. This is a case of Alex not wanting to throw everyone else in the ring under the bus for being irresponsible. They all screwed up there. |

Yeah Jack Evans doesn't surprise me, that guy is a freaking botch machine somedays. Velvet usually works pretty good though, I'm surprised she showed up lots besides the time she almost broke her neck on that dive. |

I would have stopped the match on the spot if it was me yeah, just wanted to post that quote without anything attached to it. |

I'd wager like 95% of athletes I know are all the "I can go, I'll walk it off" type, much to our detriment lol. |

The worst botch I've seen in AEW was Uno's awful selling of a 'rana on the apron. I'm sure that's on there.
