Former WCW Announcer Gary Cappetta Criticizes Cody Taking Dangerous Spot During Match With Kenny Omega

Legendary ring announcer Gary Michael Cappetta aired his frustration via social media of Cody taking that spot from Omega.

Omega executed a dangerous spot by doing a running release powerbomb to Cody from the inside to outside of the ring. Unfortunately, for Cody, the table did not do to much to add relief to the spot, as he landed hard on the floor. This spot further mandated Cody to take time off to heal, and he tweeted that he will take time off to prepare for "All In" on September 1. Cody will also take time off for another project, which is why he changed his hair from blonde to black again. 

"WRESTLER ALERT: Human bodies aren't made to do this. Please stop shortening your valuable careers. Stop limiting the health and happiness of your post wrestling lives."

IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion Hiromu Takahashi reportedly suffered a broken neck following taking a spot from Dragon Lee and landing on his head.

I don't give a damn if the table had been cut in half and then super glued together . . . . The trauma caused by a body slammed six feet onto a hard surface causes harm for life. Sprain=Taxing. Head crash=Lifelong disabilities. https://t.co/ZhLMTnRVVE

Portraying simulated violence vs. outright violent acts w/ lifelong debilitating effect is what "the art of the game" is all about. A "fan" who expects wrestlers to sacrifice long term health is not a "fan". Yes, it's not ballet, but it shouldn't be self disfigurement either. https://t.co/EUPF24d38j
