Yikes. I remember the hardcore holly table cut from 2006 because of that plastic lining. Super gnarly.

Going through a regular table is safer than going through a gimmicked table

Anyone whoever says “pro wrestling is fake” I always point to Mick Foley. He will tell you for a fact that it is 100 percent NOT fake. Yes, the story line and the match are worked out. Yes the wrestlers are not always throwing real punches (refer to Samoa Joe vs Necro Butcher to see real ones thrown) but wrestling is for sure real. The injuries, the bumps, the wear and tear on the body all legit.

I’ve had to explain to friends that scripted doesn’t equal fake—a lot of the shit wrestlers do really really hurts

you hit a gimmicked table, you're not slowing down, you're hitting the floor. you hit a real table and you're hitting the table, then landing on the floor. very different options

Bros keeping kayfabe alive lol, most tables in wrestling are precut to make sure they do break

Tell your friend to watch Botchamania if she wants to see people not go through tables because let me tell you it definitely happens. Source: I AM THE TABLE

If I remember, a few wrestlers have said that the table usually cushions their fall. Some prefer table bumps because they hurt the least. Though with some exceptions like Hardcore Holly

And then there's the tables that don't want to sell to anyone. Which becomes "I Am The Table" moments.

I just about fucking DIED at the deadpan, matter of fact statement of, “uhhhhh…you know how to take the bump.” 😆😆😆 The best possible response delivered in the best possible way.

They take the metal brackets off the bottom on the sides so it buckles easy

Not surprised they remove the strip after Hardcore Holly’s back! Jeeez that was nasty

imagine if it was scored or precut, that excess energy has to go somewhere. if a 500lbs of force is going through a gimicked table maybe 10lbs of it breaks the table. that means 490lbs is going into the ground, Newton's 3rd law that wrestler is gonna get hurt.

Seeing that a folding table typically has a metal frame I call BS that they aren't modified.

people think theyre lying and its precut, that would literally make it more dangerous. the table actually lessens the impact, if its cut you wont get as much resistance and just hit the floor. the table needs some body to it to slow the fall

I think ppl over estimate the ability of a particle wood table to resist 200+ coming down on it with speed and force

I say this to everyone: pro wrestling is like improv with stuntmen. they know how it starts and how it ends, and everything between is up to them.

Watch some of the old hardcore matches with terry funk and they had to take bumps on real plywood tables instead of the tables they have now days and it was brutal

Even chair shots are not truly faked. The folding chairs have 1 piece of metal removed so the chair can be folded as flat as can be but other than that it's actual metal to skin and bone

I don't remember the details, but there was a match back in the territory days where they used a gimmicked table that was made easier to break, and that thing started sagging in the middle when the guy was laid out on top of it. Lol. Bro was lying on a U shape before the splash came.

AEW comes from the tradition of Japanese tables that go into business for themselves.
