I saw Austin Aries in Atlanta the night before WM27.
To be fair, I didn't know about the "retirement" stipulation until some people told me at the show, so that swerve didn't really register with me. I have been aware of who he was, but never really seen him before.
Anyway, in his match that night he no-sold eight or 10 brainbusters -- up to four in a row at one point. Just popped right up and acted like nothing had happened.
Maybe that's his character. Maybe it's supposed to be part of the puroresu style -- but nobody else on the show (except his opponent, to a much lesser degree) seemed to approach it that way. The other guys on the card sold for each other.
So I figured maybe he could make the no-selling a feature in his TNA act. All he needs is a long list of things to no-sell to get it over.
I'll start with a Jeff Jarrett guitar smash over the head.
Then maybe Sting could wallop him across the skull with a baseball bat.
And so on and so on.
What else could he no-sell in TNA?
