Lutte indy: Lawler réagit aux propos d’Orton

Sur son podcast “Dinner With The King”, Jerry Lawler a réagi aux récents propos de Randy Orton sur la lutte indy.

Orton a exprimé sur Twitter des commentaires négatifs sur le circuit indy, où selon lui les lutteurs multiplient inutilement les cascades et acrobaties pour un salaire peu décent.

L’ex-lutteur Rip Rogers – maintenant entraîneur à Ohio Valley Wrestling – a lui aussi décrié les matchs indy, soutenant que c’est répétitif et bourré inutilement de “spots”.

Lawler mentionne que les jeunes lutteurs tentent tout simplement de se faire remarquer afin de gravir les échelons. Le problème, selon lui, c’est qu’ils ne “vendent” pas le match suffisamment. Il comprend donc les commentaires d’Orton et de Rogers, tout en étant plus modéré dans ses propos.

“I think that the problem Rip [Rogers] and Randy [Orton] have is what the young guys think they need to do to get noticed. It’s what the young guys do in these matches that bothers guys who have been in the business for a while. The young guys, like they said, they have a tendency to go out there and try to squeeze in every single move that they know. Every dive. Every flip. Every flop. Everything they can put in one 15-minute match. So in order to do that, if you are going to put all those moves in, you’re not going to have time to sell anything. It’s just going to be one move after another until the match is over.

“That is not the way wrestling became what it is today. Not what I think veterans look at and not what the business is supposed to be. It’s not that really entertaining for fans. I think that’s Rip’s and Randy’s point they are trying to make there.”
