– On the latest edition of Kliq This, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash critiqued the plastic bag spot that took place after Bryan Danielson vs. Jon Moxley at AEW WrestleDream last Saturday. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Kevin Nash on the execution of the plastic bag spot: “Is this [autoerotic asphyxiation]? Because it looks to me like instead of pulling the bag off of his head, it looks like he’s like [making it even tighter]. I mean, it’s a plastic bag. Why wouldn’t you be pulling it the other way over your chin?”
On how the move is used in movies: “This has always gotten heat in movies, when the guy is like John Wick, you know? But he’s bound in a chair with his hands behind his back. Maybe [AEW isn’t] cinema-based.”
On AEW now repeatedly using the spot: “Like I said last week, this is just bad enough for your 8- and 6-year-old kids to f****** get this idea, since [AEW does] it weekly now. It’s their new go-to spot. I guess at this point people [chant ‘boring’] if you go for the rear chin so f******, you gotta pick s*** up. The rear bag spot.”
The AEW WrestleDream pay-per-view main event saw Jon Moxley beat Danielson to regain the AEW World Championship.
