Jesus christ..what the fukk are juvi and the ref thinking?

"it's 2019, gotta protect the business"

"it's 2019, gotta protect the business"

It doesn't make any sense. Even in the UFC, if one guy starts having a heart attack, guaranteed the other guy and the ref will lay off and call the EMTs come in.

Kayfabe is dead. There is no need to finish a match if someone is sick in the ring.

Christ. I was hovering over tickets for this last week and decided not to. Glad I didn't see this.

RIP

The ref and Juvi.

This reminds me of Perro Aguayo's death from a few years ago. Everyone was careless in that regard as well.

WTF was wrong with that ref and Juvi?! Clearly something was wrong! Stop the damn match and start CPR! Dude could have possibly been saved if CPR had been started right away!

RIP to him and condolences to the family.

Wow that is horrible. I used to rock with Silver King. He always wrestled good matches on WCW Saturday Night, Nitro and Thunder.

These refs need to get some kind of training so they can identify injuries and medical issues.

How come you didn't go?

My 4 year anniversary

RIP

I saw him wrestle live once in mexico. Lucha Libre shows live are some of the most fun i've had at a wrestling show lol





after watching the clip, one thing I can not stand is when they try to continue a match when something is clearly wrong smh

RIP The Great Ramses

LWO
