For the conditions Nigel was in, this was the best match in his career. To even think about going 25 minutes with KENTA in such pain and still being able to pull out such a great match and make a victory even in this conditions look credible, hell, you just have to be one of the greatest pro wrestler in the world. It's unfortunate that Nigel was never the same after these injuries and ended up retiring so early...

@TrolledBy 5 жыл бұрын

It wasn't the injuries that made him retire, it was a hepatitis B. The injuries only prevented him from wrestling in WWE.

@greatestbrand5191 10 жыл бұрын

thank you commentators for being professional and calling the damn match makes pro wrestling feel more like a sport than a script

For all the crap every one gave Nigel in his world Title Reign the fact that he fought through a serious concussion Tearing his biceps three times (two of which happened at the same time) and still put on many good matches despite all these things. Everyone has to admit he is one of the toughest wrestlers in history.

@TheHoriyoshi 10 жыл бұрын

Watch the ECW-match Terry Funk vs. Sabu, where Sabu cuts open his whole biceps....takes a tape to fix and goes on.....I guess thats rank1 in toughest wrestler. Or maybe the jump of Sick Nick Mondo from the Building (about 7 meters down) into glass and two tables...and he did another match that evening...

@Wurzelknecht 10 жыл бұрын

Peter Wild The toughest wrestler ever in that regard I'd say would be Mick Foley. The amount of damage he received just during his HiaC match against Taker in 98 and still continued the match is insane (I believe the total result was a dislocated shoulder, a tooth that came out of his nose, a hole bitten into his lip, a bruised hip and a concussion). And in case of Sabu, I'd say his broken jaw from when he moonsaulted onto the guardrail (and then also proceeded to use tape to fix it) was worse than the flesh wound on his arm. But Nigel was tough as nails for carrying on for such a long time despite those injuries. Other such feats of valor would be Vader and his eyeball, Danielson with his shoulder and his retina, Kawada and Edwards with their broken arms, and for the women, Akira Hokuto with her broken/Injured neck. And to think Sin Cara stopped a match because he dislocated his finger...

@TheHoriyoshi 10 жыл бұрын

***** u are right, I completely forgot about that one....that was Insane also. Compared to Nick Mondos fall from the building through glasses and tables onto the concrete (did go wrong a bit)....not sure, which one is worse, coz both are really very near death.

@@Wurzelknecht Hansen would have dragged him in the ring by his finger and took his head off 😂 weak ass finger dislocation... I got my shoulder bone crushed, a torn labrum and rotator cuff and reverse dislocation from being electrocuted and drove myself across town to the hospital... Sin Cara is a diva 😂

Punk does the GTS on guys twice his size. So I think Punk is very impressive when he does it. Most of Kenra opponents if not all are small or bellow 240 Ibs.

Yeah Punk adopted it because the Pepsi Plung was too close to the Pedegree and the GTS doesn't require as much set up and can kind of come out of nowhere if need be.

can't say enough about Nigel McGuinness this guy is absolutely awesome love watching him fight in fact I think he's probably the only fighter from the West that I've seen who could even compete with the more skilled skilled and sadistic Japanese wrestlers most of the big muscled Western studs go to Japan get destroyed and have no success good to finally see a real big hot white guy who could beat one of these Japanese Fighters I have seen Kenta beat the crap out of so many white muscle studs previously that it made it particular Suite to finally see a western fighter who could defeat this Japanese tough guy and Kayenta is one of the toughest and more skilled Fighters I've ever seen so kudos 2 mr. Nigel McGuinness and I do mean mister
