rewatching mox vs kor DoN b/c I was like this
when watching it and lowkey blacked tf out. so. r&r (rewatch & ramble) time!:
death riders music is so sexy...ok sorry
JEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOON MOOOOOOXLEY
he gave us so much fanservice (walked around a lot) during the entrance... imagine getting a close up view being in the crowd I am so jealous. ...whatever I don't even care...!!!!!!
when his finger slid down the neckline of his shirt before he took it off... thanks camerman. (sorry)
nice opening: bit of jousting, standing switch, mox getting the better of kor (he is locking in : ))
COLLAR AND ELBOW COLLAR AND ELBOW enjoying the first few min of the match I like when they start off w/ some off-the-mat grappling
MOX DOING THE THING WHEN HE'S GOT BOTH HANDS ON THE TOP ROPE LEANING HIS WEIGHT INTO IT WHILE NOT FACING HIS OPPONENT... DYKWIM I feel like he does it when he's feeling kinda frustrated or as a way to center himself (when he's Not Having It)
mox got a magnet in his forehead that just clacks him into place against another man's forehead lmao
kor locking in the sleeper and I was like just sliiiiiiightly stressed (just a tad!) but I liked the (not elegant yet effective) powerslam (does that count as a powerslam idk ball re wrestling moves)
he started getting his ass kicked and I was like LOCK IN!!!
I lowkey felt bad for kor when some of the crowd started laughing/heckling when he fell icl but yeah keep working that leg mox (yay dragon screw)
the stupid thing he does w/ his arm (ft no finger gun this time)................ AND THE LITTLE ARM WAVE DANCE..... ughghghghgghhggh he's silly and cute again fr
taking it to the mat let's get it - I like his approach toward this match (tb to last yr when bryan on comms was like mox can get out of/reverse the submission but he's panicking and flailing (and flopping.) but now that we're back to not being cowards he's showing off some of his mat wrestling chops (which I have always liked))
THE CLAWING.... and the biting. classic mox combo why is he like this can't take him anywhere fr THEN THE HANDS UP LIKE HE'S INNOCENT STOP IT LMAOOOOO
WHY DID HE SIT ON THE TURNBUCKLE ONLY TO EAT SHIT LIKE THAT. NOW UR ARM'S GONNA GET WORKED IDIOT...
^ ok I actually was like HELL YEAH when instead of going for the ropes he reversed that arm bar into a (what is that called? some sort of) leg lock
ok kor ate when he read the dragon screw turned it into an arm bar then into the ankle lock BRUH MY HANDS WERE ON MY HEAD I WAS STRESSED FRFR when mox bit his own fist I had to stop watching
can we talk about how kor hit the curbstomp on mox? when was the last time someone hit the curbstomp on him? did he get up so fast b/c even if years have passed, he's felt it so many times (ones w/ much more force behind them (transmitting much heavier tumultuous emotions))? hi seth rollins. are you watching?
that cutter was messy and GOOD he's rattled he's unsteady he's pinpoint accurate even if a hand slips off
HE'S SO HYPED.... bouncy boi
bruh the jawbreaker lariat kor knew ball the crowd knew ball I knew ball you knew ball
slugfest on the knees then stood up walked in a circle trash talking and another slugfest then more bouncing lol classic
WHY DID HE GO FOR THE REAR NAKED CHOKE INSTEAD OF THE PIN
once again hands on head stressed but then it turned into a double ankle lock lol
tbh wasn't expecting kor to tap to it!!!
anyway WE'RE NEVER DROPPING THE BELT WE'RE WALKING INTO THE 2026 C2 AS CHAMPION!!!!! LFGGGGGGGG
also his back looked insane. and his arms. his whole torso actually. and I like those black jeans on him a lot... ok sorry anyway
ALSO THE DEATH RIDERS CELEBRATORY MOMENT CAN WE TALK ABOUT THAT???
yuta sprinting out and sliding (vry smoothly btw) into the ring clapping and hyped... first one to arrive
marina hyped as hell in his face
danny patented high five fist bumping ppl like HE won (also hyped)
claudio switching b/t looking at mox and keeping an eye on the conglomeration
mox standing up by himself instead of taking marina's hand and then high five fist bumping claudio
did anyone else catch the moxyuta moment it made me so crazy like I was unwell briefly for shoot. like
mox walking over to say smth to marina and danny (ft danny dipping his head to give mox his ear which is classic danny): normal
mox saying smth to yuta and then clasping his hand on the back of yuta's neck (BIGGER THAN HIS WHOLE NECK BTW. COVERING PART OF HIS HEAD NOW TOO.) while danny and claudio stare the hell outta them (and yuta pats mox on the back once b/c he always does that which I won't even get into rn): ????????????????? we're all unwell everyone go home
