What exactly is wrong with Gunther's powerbomb on Sheamus? It looks normal to me

Opponents supposed to land on his full back to dissipate the impact force to a larger area. Sheamus lands on his ass and lower back. Try falling from a table on your ass.

This is one of the times that I legitimately don't know if it was a worked botch or if they improvised on the spot to work it into the ending of the match

You think it was a kayfabe back injury that they made look legit so they had them do a spot where he takes a powerbomb on his arse. Seems a stretch.

sheamus actually does have spine problems. it was thought he might have to retire but obviously not. but his spine cannot take a regular powerbomb and sheamus isnt a retard and wont allow himself to be injured for the enjoyment of others

After this Sheamus went for the Bro Kick and then fell down because his back gave out in the run up. Plus he missed a year with spinal stenosis, surprised they didn't say something about it on commentary

AEWtists were looking for a bad botch and they didnt find one. Thus, theyre just focusing on one particular move that looked a little bit off. Still looked a lot better than cm puke trying to to do a springboard move and stumbling like the homeless crackhead he resembles.

It's funny how they worked up the Punkshot botches into some grand work-botch-shoot headcanon to explain their fragile champion breaking his foot less than a week later.
And here we are with Gunther and Sheamus telling a story that makes sense, entirely in the ring.

yep i noticed that too. AEWtist cope is the tastiest cope of all. It wouldnt even make sense for Punk to botch that spot, whereas the powerbomb on the lower back made perfect sense within the context of the match.

I mean, Cole sakd as it happened that Sheamus took that all on his lower back, and then he started selling a lower back injury shortly after. Not that unbelievable.

He's deliberately targeting Sheamus' lower back, it came into play later when he failed to do the Brogue Kick and led to Gunther winning)

He really was. The legit ultimate protagonist of pro wrestling in that era. It gets no better than prime HBK. Would have liked to see him go to WCW when they started the nWo. That would have been interesting.

Keep your eyes on Sheamus and ONLY Sheamus, no peeking at Gunther.
Even in kayfabe that looks weak as shit with zero impact. Everyone botches so it's no biggie, all that matters is how often the wrestler botches and Gunther doesn't botch very often.
