not start anything, but I do find it kind of amusing how quickly people are to call a guy like Ryback dangerous for botches, but people like Seth and will detract the blame. Not that I'm saying that Seth is at fault for any of these injuries, but there's a double standard for sure with workrate Except you admitted Seth isn't at fault. That could be why.

Cena admitted he was in the wrong spot, didn't pull back far enough to properly take the knee. Sting admitted he'd had nagging neck issues that he should have addressed. Finn caught himself wrong on the barricade. In the cases of Cena and Sting, there's plenty of backstage reports of Seth's attitude being very apologetic afterwards. I'm sure something similar will come out from Finn's. It's wrestling. Shit happens. That's why they have the Don't Try This At Home banner. Seth's been a workhorse over the past several years, of course he's going to be involved in more injuries than most. But I'm certainly tired of everyone screaming for the end of Seth Rollins. not start anything, but I do find it kind of amusing how quickly people are to call a guy like Ryback dangerous for botches, but people like Seth and will detract the blame. For me, the difference is attitude. Seth isn't taking to Twitter to make fun of Finn for his busted wing.

If Kurt Angle was around, he'd deal with this.
On Twitter.

How many freak accidents and apologies has to happen before someone ( cough HHH cough ) says let's think of another move to replace that toss? I was actually shocked when I saw that move after Sting, but who's been injured with the curb stomp?

I was actually shocked when I saw that move after Sting, but who's been injured with the curb stomp? None, and he should probably be using it as a finisher. Fit his character, looked great, crazy over. But it's banned because of concerns raised by the current heightened awareness over concussions, which is a very real, on-going problem. Seth doesn't get a say in that. The tosses are probably used because of their history of looking devastating, and they're legitimized by people losing their mind over it retiring Sting. Finn knew the risks. So did Sting. So did Cena.

At the end of the day the Finn spot was f***ing dumb and Sting body gave out on him after all these years of wrestling

The issue with Sting and Balor not landing properly is because they have no clue where they are positioned to take that powerbomb spot. It's virtually impossible to know where you're going to land when you don't have eyes in the back of your head.
Dump the powerbomb spot. Seth's one of the best wrestlers on the planet. He can find another signature move.

Yeah, the blame can be argued but at this point it just seems resoundingly simple to just stop doing the powerbomb spot.
Yes, it means he loses another move after the Curb Stomp. It's not like he's working with a Kevin Nash workset here, though, and he simply doesn't need that move.

Honestly, I've thought it was weird he kept the buckle bomb after not needing to use it to set up the Curb Stomp. I'd be okay with him losing it, dude's got a tonne of moves to use. Hell, bring back the STO into a turnbuckle I say!

You have to think at this point that people are just going to start telling Seth that they're not willing to take that move from him anymore...
Or are they afraid to speak up since Seth is HHH's boy?

I'm not really sure what the right course of action or response is. Yes, the Buckle Bomb has caused two serious injuries in the space of 11 months, but otherwise he's done the move perfectly dozens of times and rarely even so much as botches the move.
(And in regards to the Curb Stomp, that was mostly for Vince having visions of little kiddies jumping on the heads of other children, not concussion concerns for the talent)

Imagine the trail of bodies had he not been on the shelf himself for most of those 11 months. In seriousness, though. I'm of the opinion we really don't know enough of the situation to condemn him as being primarily responsible. That being said, I also feel like he'd be condemned a lot more if he was a meathead, brawler style wrestler like Ryback or Reigns.

I am just saying, Bret Hart was a pro wrestler for 30 years. Not just a wrestler, a true GOAT candidate. He never injured another guy, that is not debateable. Still had awesome matches. He seems to think something is up with Rollins. Bret gives credit to good workers, he has no reason to knock Rollins. WWE pays him either way. Something is making his spider senses tingle, mine too. Something isn't right. If you have offense that leaves your opponent vulnerable and not able to protect themselves, you are not doing this right. This is happening way too much and often.
