>Rock can sell his ass off

Are we just gonna ignore that he’s a GOAT and all the times he made the Stone Cold Stunner look like a million bucks? Rock is great even at 51. This isn’t news.

Maybe on Planet Retard. Everywhere else, he made it look like a cartoon comedy spot. Literal Shawn selling for Hogan >>14104177

Yeah Bret's sell is realistic and boring, while Rock's is over the top and retarded. Scott Hall had the best stunner sell

He was always a GOAT, it's just nobody expected him to do it at 50.
Smarks were wrong, Roman and Rock would've been just fine

Either Rock knew what the fans wanted and that's why he always sold the stunner like he was a cartoon character or he was trying to turn Austin's finisher into a joke.

They were competitive but friends behind the scenes. I doubt he was trying to sabotage him. Probably tried to make the stunner look devastating beyond what was realistic to put his old pal Stone Cold over.

Jesus Christ, to think Bret purposely took the stunner like this JUST so Vince wouldn’t feel so bad about the way he took his first stunner… only for Vince to turn around and betray him at Survivor Series a few short months later. Poor Bret!

To be fair to Bret the way he takes it makes perfect sense, especially given the fact that the stunner hadn’t reached meme status yet.

rock said he tried to sell the stunner the first meme way to make it look devastating, but he just went flying into the ropes like a jackass, which popped steve and almost made him corpse. steve austin tells it the same way. the sell was to pop steve, and the crowd loved it too.

Great but you gotta start his rise a few frames earlier, you started it after he started losing altitude which looks weird

That's exactly what his selling wants you to think anon, so I guess it worked. That was his style, more hard thudding selling. Compare his corner bump to Shawn's more theatrical style, Shawn does the flip over like Flair, Bret does the hard chest bump. One's not inherently better than the other, it's just a different approach.

And that's a valid way of selling, but so is the more over the top way. Wrestling is varied for a reason.

bret sells it like an actual move that could happen in a fight. the rock sells it as the Stone Cold Stunner™. both these sells make perfect sense for the match and where austin was at in his career
