I know Mae Young was a thief/mugger but man she sold the shit out of that stunner.

I remain convinced that nobody sold the Stunner better than Angle's springloaded version.

I'm glad he sold it that way. As a kid, it made the Stunner the strongest move in the business.

Yeah, the Slaughter, Vince, Brisco, and Patterson sells of just falling face first into Austin's shoulder always makes me cringe. Like they're actively trying to get hurt.

I remember reading online at the time that they were supposed to say that Vince was having a seizure, but it looked so bad that they just ignored it.

I have no idea why a big time, main event star would put over the finish of the biggest star in the business...
He should have been kicking out of 3 stunners per PPV at minimum!

Wasn't that one of Rock's points after WM 15? I recall him saying that it took Austin, "Not one. Not two. But three Stunners to defeat the Great One!"

Takes me back to when me and my friends would give each other stunners just so we could see who could sell it in the most ridiculous way.

The Rock oversold everything. For all the flack Shawn Michaels gets, the Rock was every bit as bad, if not worse, but was nowhere near as good in any other aspect. Dude flat out sucked. We get it. You don't like The Rock.

I've shared this story several times, but it still makes me smile when I think about the time my friends in 3rd grade got into a fight and one of them tried giving the other a Stunner.

Just to keep this thread fair... Get out of here with this, this never happened. Nobody gives Austin a Stunner.

I have never in my life enjoyed a wrestling match less because there was overselling in it. It can only help.
