I assumed he was questioning its relation to a spike since Heath landed on his head.

Which of course it isn't (a spike).

the throw is legal.

They clarified it in the new rules, but according to Lembo from NJ and Big John, the only "throw/slam" that was ever meant to be illegal was a pile driver.

In this throw, he didn't spike his opponents head into the mat, he threw him and he happened to land on his head.

wow your a cock sucker. i wasnt trying to be a dick in my post. its obvious to anyone that knows the sport that the throw was fine because there was no intent on heath landing on his head. because you didnt know that i thought you were knew to the sport.

yeah he didnt slam him directly to compress his neck so its totally legal.

Ive been really impressed by what ive seen of Boetsch, even though he gassed it and lost to hamill, he still showed some skills and strenght, alot of respect from me (not that it means much)

as rogan said "boetsch is for real man!!!"
