I think the dumbest part of that spot was the glass flying to the audience that could've potentially done some damage. They're very lucky that didn't happen. Ultimately, it was dumb all around cause it did nothing to help the match except add a viral moment for Sting last match Sting is the draw, you didn't need to do all that and please stop using real glass. That took Darby out for the whole rest of the match and he looked in a lot of pain

I just hope he’s healthy enough in his old age that we don’t end up having to look back on all this crazy shit and be like “Why did everybody allow him to do this?”.

Someone said it in the live thread.
MICK FOLEY is licking his chops now, probably getting in shape to get HIS death match with Darby.
Sting and Cactus were enemies, so I can see it come now.....

Not even allow, multiple people have told him to chill and he wants to do it so the only hope you can have is he comes to his senses and realizes this is not going to be good for him 10 years from now much less his old age

I think too many people just hand wave away his stunts like “oh, his body is fine he’ll be fine”, when common sense just dictates no, he won’t be fine. I know he says he doesn’t want to do this for a long time but I really hope he’s not sacrificing his quality of life in his later years for this stuff now.
To be clear, he’s super talented and it was an incredible visual, but like…he could have killed himself or hurt others. I don’t know if the match needed it.

Hopefully the fans around the ramp are all right and that no one received any major abrasions.
I could see one of the fans, on the replay of Darby's dive, cover their face and turn away. I'm hoping it was only their instinctive reaction and not anything worse.

I'm hoping it was only their instinctive reaction and not anything worse. There was a fan video on twitter where you can see people brushing/shaking the glass off their shirts. I just hope he’s healthy enough in his old age that we don’t end up having to look back on all this crazy shit and be like “Why did everybody allow him to do this?”. Look at Mick Foley. Darby does more wreckless shit on a more regular basis and has less body weight to absorb any of it.

The one thing I will say is usually after Darby does something super crazy, Tony sends him home for like a month

We're beyond calling him crazy and wondering about how he gets permission to do these spots. I'm onto enjoying the fact that we will probably never see another wrestler crazy/stupid/plyable enough to pull off half the shit that he's pulled off. I've legitimately thought he's done for a while many times now. The stairs spot. Nearly breaking his neck on that swing spot. Just too many times. I appreciate the gutsy nature of a guy who wants to speedrun a wrestling career.

Darby does more wreckless shit on a more regular basis and has less body weight to absorb any of it. It is a bit of a mixed bag. Mick had more size to absorb it, but he also weighed at least 100 pounds more than Darby through much of his career, so he fell a whole lot harder, too.
