Drew McIntyre has reflected on Madcap Moss’ horrifying botch at WWE Elimination Chamber.
During the premium live event, Moss landed directly on his head when taking McIntyre’s reverse Alabama Slam.
Speaking with In The Kliq, McIntyre noted that he didn’t know how rough the bump was before he watched it back.
Thankful that Moss is okay, McIntyre said:
“I didn’t realize how bad it was, but I saw the clip back. I understand that, let’s just say, he zigged when he should have zagged. The move didn’t go the way it’s supposed to go. I was aware of that, but I did not realize how bad it was.
The fact that you know, he was okay. I did double-check that. I could see it in his eyes, he was good. He was double-checking to make sure he could finish the match and after the fact, the necessary precautions were taken, and thankfully now he’s all good.
“That’s the thing about this job, all it takes is one second and everything can, everything can change. And people have their opinions on wrestling, etc, but we were out there.
“You know, live-action stuntmen, you know, putting on those high-end contests that were trained at such a high level that you don’t think twice about it. Like, when you’re watching it because everybody’s so good at what they do, but sometimes in those moves, if one thing goes wrong, if somebody tucks when that’s not the plan, horrible things like that can happen. I’m just very thankful that he’s okay.”
McIntyre defeated Moss in their rematch on last week’s episode of SmackDown.
