Whole segment sounded like Shane McMahon getting slammed on some crates.

As soon as I saw the video of them back by the semi trucks I was hoping they did a reenactment of the Rey javelin spot and sure enough they did. Plus he was launched into Jimmy Hart!

Am I the only one that, as bad as something like that would actually be in real life, the slam into the car seemed less damaging than the javalin toss?
Again, I know in real life, that would be a legit serious injury. But in the pro wrestling sphere, that seemed like teh less damaging of the moves.
Personally, I was thinking they were going to find a way to recreate the Von Wagner spot backstage (can't do that one at ringside live in the middle of Raw, I don't think).

When is his actual contract up? Could he show up at Forbidden Door or is he under contract for another few months and they just wrote him off?

I can't be the only one that was thinking or hoping that when he was getting loaded up in the ambulance that Bron would come out of nowhere and continue the attack. I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU (Hear a faint voice off-screen... "That's MY f***in' bit")

Whole segment sounded like Shane McMahon getting slammed on some crates. Ricochet sounded like Shane McMahon trying to breathe after doing 60 seconds of cardio.

Bron should have looked into the camera and said "That's real glass. Go cry me a river!" after slamming Ricochet onto the car.

Windshield glass is designed in such a way as to absorb a lot of impact. So while you can get cut up from it, as it's real glass (cry me a river), it's otherwise pretty safe to use for such a spot as you don't risk falling through the glass into the front seats which can cause some serious injury. A lot more things could go wrong with the javelin toss.

From what I understand, Rico was wearing padding underneath his shirt to absorb the damage from falling to the concrete after the lawndart and then the windshield slam spot.

I know that bump had to suck. "Luckily my neck broke my fall." One thing I just caught on the gif, that nasty bump on the concrete was likely accidental, you can see Ricochet's foot get caught on Bron's shoulder on the way down. That's a good point and I can't think of many ways to fall on concrete gracefully to begin with.

If this ends up being his final appearance on Raw, how do they explain his Speed final appearance? Will they admit it is pre-taped? Doesn't it release like at noon on Wednesdays? It would be ridiculous to imply they got an arena half filled for a 3 minute match for it. Wednesday is Tommaso Ciampa VS Andrade in the #1 Contender's Tournament Final. So, if anything they will do the Title Match on Friday, like they did last month. If his contract isn't up this week, they could have done this angle next week after Speed.
