Don't try this at home!

[Push R Truth]

Everybody knows you aren't supposed to do wrestling moves unless you are a pro wrestler... but how many of us have actually listened to that warning?


For the record I totally tried it at home. I did elbow drops off the 8 foot deck into 6 foot tall piles of snow with my brothers. I was once powerbombed against my will into a swimming pool. Was suplexed on trampolines countless times. Want to know what finally hurt me? Buddy was putting me in the sharpshooter after I lost a bet and I partially tore my hammy when he did the step-through.

I was a dumb kid, but I doubt I was alone here.

I got mad at my practice partner (he was taking too many liberties) in judo class and gave him the rock bottom with the lift up no assist

[DJ Maniak]

I didn't try it at home.

I tried it at a friend's house.

Then I tried it in a ring.

[froggyfrog]

I heeded the warning since no one ever taught me how to fall off a 20 foot ladder, yet.

[Instant Classic]

All the time of course!

Me and my brother did wrestling moves on our mattress and when playing with friends (power bombs) but that's about it. Never tried to get in the ring or anything beyond that.

One time when I was 11 or 12 I remember wrestling with my friends. One of them was nearby and had their back turned to me so I crouched down into a Spear/Gore position. My friend must have seen me because as he turned around he hit me HARD me with Tajiri's Buzzsaw Kick.

I don't recall much after that.

[Duke Cameron]

I heeded the warning.

Wasn't interested and was an only child anyway.

I actually tried it. I tried to be careful for the most part, but after a while, I stuck with only doing video game wrestling.

[sonofblaine]

Most I've done is powerbombs to my godchildren onto the bed. They love it.

I hope you put him in the Anaconda Vise after that or I'll never respect you again.

I did try it at home. And at my grandparents' house. And at my friends' house. EVERYWHERE.

And for the record...the Figure 4 DOES hurt like a bitch.

Back in my day, they didn't tell us not to try this at home, because it's clearly dangerous and we were not morons.

But yes, me and my friends wrestled all the time, with various broken furniture and injuries. Not quite sure how I survived a doomsday device off a park bench as a 10 y/o.

Because we were morons.

Until we were around 17, me, my 2 brothers and some of my friends put on shows for the rest of the neighborhood kids. Naturally being the only girl there, I bumped and flew like Dolph Ziggler on amphetamines.

I was the only one who decided to go to wrestling school later, but I never got past the "weekend warrior" phase. I got a promotion at work, and around the same time I broke up with my boyfriend, who I'd been paired with for a while as "Dirk Ziggler and Miss April" (For the record, I make Paige look tanned) so the door closed on the fake shows for me which actually paid better than the crappy indy I mostly worked in. Though I did manage to have a mini dream retirement match, losing against Sweet Saraya on my 21st birthday.

When I was 11, my 9 year old friend attempted a Rockbottom on me and I reversed it into a DDT. He was down for about a minute. I'm pretty sure I gave him a concussion now thinking about it.

I totally tried it at home.

-Jumped out of a tree onto my brother when we backyard wrestled.
-Chokeslammed my brother on a steel chair.
-Sweet Chin Music'ed my brothers baby teeth out.
-Friend and me had a ladder match and both fell off said ladder.
-I have a scar on my arm after doing a Swanton Bomb and landing on toy ladder.

Probably more I'm forgetting, but that's some.

Me and my friend on the trampoline, we used to really go all out lol.

I also put my cousin in the crippler cross face and made him cry. It was ages ago though, don't hate me.

Oh man I loved doing the crippler crossface , the Camel Clutch, and the Ankle Lock to younger kids.  After they turn 10 though, they learned how to escape them :\

Lol.

i also met a kid on holiday and basically used him as my submission tester to see which one hurt the most. I came to the conclusion the walls of Jericho hurt the most of them all.

When the warning was just "the following program contains action of a graphic nature: viewer discretion is advised" I'd wrassle with friends, but once the "don't try this at home" ones started I stopped.

"Fragmented into my spinal column." "Careers ended in an instant."

NOT WORTH THE RISK!
