This was back in the days when a steel cage match generally resulted in a definitive finish, rather than as a mid-feud filler match for the sole purpose of using some cute loophole screwjob to continue the feud.
It's not the first point of contact that bears the brunt of the force, it's the last. If you fall from 10 feel, graze the ground with your heel, and land on your ass, it is you ass that will feel the pain, not your feet.
Most anticlimactictic ending to a cage match ever. And for good reason. How did Andre not tear everything in both knees?!
ReplyDeleteUm.... HOLY SHIT!
ReplyDeleteHow did he not blow his knees out?
ReplyDeleteThis is how all matches with giants should end: with buttdrops off the top.
ReplyDeleteI've always like Big John Studd. What a great wrestling name.

ReplyDeleteFTFY.
How great was Gorilla at pbp btw? The guy made a slow lumbering match seem epic. Truly the best ever.
ReplyDeleteI always thought he could have main-evented a wrestlemania against Hogan.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering how McMahon convinced Studd to take that bump?

ReplyDeleteBy cushioning the blow with his ass on Studd's chest.
ReplyDeleteIs the meaning of "anticlimactictic" different than "anticlimactic"?
ReplyDeleteBecause if it's not, then you're wrong.
His feet hit first, they took the full force of that bump.
