I loved the fact that Shawn Spears is getting screen time and that he will obviously be a much bigger deal in AEW than he ever was in WWE. But I am not sure that I want to see people bashing each other on the head with steel chairs.
While people complain about the fact that WWE is very 'safe' these days, the fact of the matter is that by eliminating chair shots to the head, they have actually taken a massive step forward. You never know what long-term effects these chair shots can have on the careers of the performers.

Sometimes you want to create a moment and therefore, you end up doing something of this nature to get a pop. But the long term impact of foolhardy moves like these can be quite brutal indeed.
This was the scariest moment of the whole show.
