Jungle Boy wrestled Rush on this week’s edition of AEW Dynamite and was thrown off the apron onto the floor at one point.
Wrestling veteran Dutch Mantell reacted to the spot.
He wrote, “Guys…if somebody knows Jungle Boy, just mention great bump. But remind him that he’s damaging his body quickly. Fans remember that bump 10 minutes. He’ll remember it when he’s 60 and halfway paralyzed. Good luck.”
Mantell added, “Ol timers used to tell me the same thing. Slow down and cut out those big bumps they’d say and we weren’t doing anywhere close to what these kids today are. That bump won’t sell one ticket or one PPV. But it could’ve been a trip to the ER and worse. Then what?”

Well ol timers used to tell me the same thing. Slow down and cut out those big bumps they’d say and we weren’t doing anywhere close to what these kids today are. That bump won’t sell one ticket or one PPV. But it could’ve been a trip to the ER and worse. Then what?
