I like it, just hated the Flair bit And I’d argue that the one cool camera shot didn’t save a poor segment. When it's an iconic reference and the last time we ever see it, yes it does imo

I hate to sound negative about it because I was happy to see that visual one more time, but the cool part about the old rafter moments was it was typically done to save somebody from a beat down. Doing it after the heels got the drop felt anticlimactic.

Seeing flair and then Sting doing the rafter trick back to back is the biggest “ITS SO OVER WE’RE SO f***ING BACK” moment I’ve had in years with wrestling. Consider that ppv bought.

I still feel like Flair is going to turn on Sting at the PPV. I’d be more surprised if he DOESN’T

Needed more Rick Rude screaming “take him out, Bucks! Take him out!”

the breath of relief when sting safely got to the ring, whew. Yeah, that spot makes me so nervous, even more given that Reliving the War literally just got to Over the Edge 99 this month so it’s fresh on my mind. happens every time I see someone do it, I remember when Logan Paul did it at mania and the entire time I felt like I was gonna throw up lol

Considering what went wrong with Owen, as long as I know the company is half way competent, I'm not worried. They screwed up with the harness for Owen so bad, obviously.

I really think AEW shouldn’t have done this. What if there was an accident and Sting fell to his death? Thank goodness nothing bad happened. This is such an unnecessary comment. Like seriously. Sorry. I’ll try to delete it.

Unfortunately, history shows that Ric doesn't give a flying shit about consent.

The rafters spot was nice to see again, but that was pretty awful for the most part. The Young Bucks doing the classic stare at the entrance ramp as the entire crowd is screaming that Sting is dropping from the rafters.

SEND NANA BACK TO THE TIOLET SEWER! That's not a nice thing to say about ROH.

Sting did that spot probably over a hundred times in WCW. It's a very safe stunt. As seen on Dark Side of the Ring, it ended tragically for Owen because they did it in such a horrifically cheap way.

Yeah like, the problem with Owen wasn't the stunt, it was Vince not giving a shit. That was a 100000% preventable death.

It pains me that Martha still has the latch and how bad the latch actually LOOKS, I can't believe that got ok'd.

Yeah, I think the spot is awesome and I was glad we got to see it one last time. I just can’t help but feel a little nervous as it’s happening.

You could never get me to do it, I'm terrified of heights. I try my best to avoid crossing bridges. I either fall off of 'em by passing out of fear or get drove over by car 'cause I need to be on the center of the road.

On top of that Owen was supposed to have one of the mini-wrestlers up there with him before that idea got nixed.

I’m glad they did it but I also hope we have now retired the wrestler comes from the top of the building stunt.
