"I had two very very troublesome things with this. When I saw this, I was yelling at my TV set to stay the F down, do not get back in that match. You know you’re messed up. He’s got two broken ribs, a punctured lung. His hand had to be freaking chop meat. At that point, stay down. I am watching this guy, I am watching him get back in the ring and I am like, bro now you’re really putting yourself in danger for no reason."

The former WWE writer also blamed the fans for praising McDonagh, stating that it would encourage more wrestlers to put their bodies on the line:

"Here’s the part that drives me crazy: and who is it again? It is a the fanbase. And what are they doing? ‘Oh he’s a hero. The bravery to take a spot like that and get back in the match.’ What precedent are they sending now? They are sending a precent that if a 23-24 year old gets hurt in a match, now he’s thinking, ‘Oh god! Now I gotta get back in there so they’ll see me as a hero.’" [13:53 onwards]
