As long as no one's getting hurt, and the wrestlers involved are good enough to know how to cover up and make it work, a "botch" is fine. It's supposed to be a real fight, supposed to be a struggle, so not everything is going to look smooth and crisp every time. One of the reasons I loved Sabu was that he was always able to make even the most elaborate spots look like a desperate act, and if anything it only added to it when they didn't always come off correctly.
Until he’d just repeat the spot again. I get what you’re saying. I don’t mind people fucking up. But they’ve made the business about the performance instead of the drama. I don’t like laughing at people getting hurt, and I’m not a fan of the word, but you really can’t blame people.
