WCW live, and some of it was so obviously that it was fake..a guy ramming a guys head into a set up chair in the middle of ring, the other guys sticks out his hands and his head never hits…however, some of it after seeing it front row, would def hurt..not saying real but some requires skill, not caring about the toll on your body.

I don’t think he’s the second coming of gibson or anything. He’s a brad thompson with better secondary pitches that was being signed for peanuts. He’s a replacement level pitcher maybe a touch better.
