Maven, you may no longer work for the company, but you really reeled me back into the WWE, I'm a 33 year old guy who stopped watching WWE during the Daniel Bryan era (not bashing Bryan, I've watched clips of him, you can see why he was a fan favourite, was just the easiest way to explain how long I've not been up to date) your channel is truly incredible in my eyes, I don't think you'll ever truly see it from our (the viewers) perspective just how insightful and interesting it is to watch your videos as a WWE fan, I've been watching WWE again for the past couple months and thoroughly enjoyed Wrestlemania, but i just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to talk to us about your experiences, I've always appreciated the WWE for what it is and I truly believe I have even more appreciation for it after watching your videos, I started off this comment by saying you may no longer work for the company anymore, but my god, I think I can't be the only former fan that's become a born again fan thanks to you!

Yeah. Chops all around just suck. I took a few from a guy who was about 6'9" and he had HUGE hands. I'm 5'3" and his hand covered almost all of my chest.

I just saw a KZbin Short where Madcap Moss was discussing the inverted Alabama slam. He said that Drew talked him through it and ran a demonstration before the show at half speed. Moss thought that Drew would need help getting him over, so put a bit more into it and ended up over-rotating. He said it was 100% his own fault for helping Drew out on the move when he didn't need it. Lucky he was OK afterwards.

Watched alot of your work in WWE back in the day and listening to your imput on what it's like withen the business is so fascinating to me.

[@johnhorner1821]

I remember I went to 2004 Backlash. I was in the lower bowl, probably 200 feet from the Arena, and hearing people take chops, I winced because you could hear the slaps clear as day over the crowd. That live event gave me an appreciation of the athleticism that every wrestler needed to have, and that even though it was scripted, and rehearsed, the level of punishment they put their bodies through was impressive. That, and Randy Orton taking a body slam into thumb tacks, that was one hell of a show.

Will 100% agree that chops by their very nature are painful, and also agree 100% with the DDT and the clothesline summations. Whenever I gave a DDT, my opponent controlled how they would take the bump (be it perfectly flat, on their elbows, rolling through, etc) as my job was simply to fall back and make it look like I held their head all the way.

I appreciate how you really show us just how professional these guys are at what they do. It’s why they say “don’t try this at home”. You perfectly explain just why these guys are great t what they do, and these accidents are rare. A couple moves I’m surprised aren’t on the list are Finn Balor’s Coup De Gras, and the Cradle Piledriver. The Coup De Gras looks painful, even knowing how the guy taking the move is prepared for it. If I’m not mistaken, I though I heard someone say that Shinskue Nakamaura said it was one of the most painful moves even when done correctly. The Cradle Piledriver in particular I mention because you come down on your head onto the floor. I don’t think it’s like a normal Piledriver where you can land between the knees, and the way they hold you makes it look especially painful.

[@Your.Uncle.AngMoh]

One of my favourite chops was Big Show against a heel Alberto del Rio with Charles Robinson as the referee. Show pinned del Rio in the corner and held him in there with his hand under his chin. Then comes the finger to the lips- "SHHH"- followed by this gold-almighty slap to del Rio's chest. What added to the theatre was Li'l Naitch selling it as though he took it. Del Rio had what we call "GT Stripes" for the rest of the match- and probably half of the rest of the night! A slap is a stinging pain, but the chest to the buckle or getting slapped on our back is a deep throbbing pain. Thanks again for another great video, Maven.

Clothesline from hell is probably my favourite finish ever. So simple but looks absolutely devastating.

Around 9:45 pm here in Nepal at the time this video is uploaded. This is a perfect time Lots of love Maven ❤️

In addition to “painful moves” and feeling pain: how do you deal with it? I would assume that some wrestlers may take painkillers before a match? Can you elaborate on this aspect a bit? I love your real talk and instructive videos, appreciate the feedback.

So many people are probably surprised to hear a British guy talking about wrestling, but the amount of KZbin channels from British guys talking about it is kind of insane. British guys REALLY like wrestling. I can't even count how many times I've clicked a wrestling related video to hear a British accent.

I just want to take a moment to say I appreciate how you didn’t take opportunities to act high and mighty or be incredibly harsh to Mr. Lamia when he had information incorrect. Very classy.

Mave, I understand you probably only reply to people who tip/pay. But I honestly want to know if creative ever had a T-shirt design ready for you? Did you have any creative control in designing one with them. Love the Stone Cold Story about creating his first tee AUSTIN 3:16 Design. Hopefully you’ll see and reply. Keep up the good work Big Dude

Damn! So much inside information to a total outsider like myself. Bravo! Thank you for explaining all this in a way that even myself can understand it. :)

The clothes line definitely hurt, Imagine some beefy guy knocking the wind out of your chest

[@SalveASMR]

JBL and Rainmaker rings a bell.

[@Superpig500]

​@@SalveASMR that's the clothesline from hell

[@bignick47331]

Why are these videos so entertaining lol i don’t even watch wrestling but i keep watching them I’ve actually started watching some old wrestling stuff on peacock because of these videos

[@Sguff00]

Hey Mave! Love the content as usual!! I have a random question. It’s well known that amateur wrestlers and boxers often get cauliflower ear from repeated impact to the ear. Is it common for pro wrestlers to get cauliflower ear? Seems like it would be with the amount of head impact a pro wrestler often has to endure.

[@MisterKisk]

Interesting thing about the Banzai Drop is that Bret Hart has said Yokozuna was quite good at making it not hurt, specifically because he took almost all of the impact on his feet. It seems the one where his foot slid out was a slip, and that might have been an uncommon freak accident.

I wander if he returned to the locker room now, only triple H would recognize him

[@gunnarjordan6980]

Maven needs his own podcast! Such a great articulate man. Great speaking voice too!

[@oldmanskills]

man , you a cool dude and humble. I recently watched a few of your matches and I think you were a good wrestler. Wish you the best

[@kenterminateddq5311]

Good morning, Mave. I love eating a healthy breakfast while watching a new video from you in the morning. 😊

[@CeemPlay]

What did u have

[@KalmoK]

Painful vibration to groin area, AKA ballquake. I felt that tbh 😂

[@JustMikeTV]

I think Mr. Lamia will be happy about this video
