Samson uses a series of knees to the gut to gain full control over Sorensen
The last time we saw Sorensen, he was feuding with Joey Ryan at Paragon Pro Wrestling and suffering multiple Brass Knuckles to the temple. Now he has drifted into NXT where he is serving as a jobber and back to spelling his name “Jesse” instead of “Jessy”.
How is that neck doing now, bitch?
On the 2/10/16 episode of NXT, Jessy — I mean JESSE — suffered a stiff beating from the mysterious “drifter” Elias Samson, who is about as jacked as the biblical Samson and wrestles in fancy designer jeans.
Line him up perfectly. Knee him in the eye socket. Repeat.
I am pleased to see Sorensen found a gig with a popular mainstream federation after being injured at TNA then let go. Sure he is playing a wimpy jobber now (which is adorable) but he may also win some matches later on.
The unusual Heel uses an unusual hold to punish the neck.
What can I say about the Heel, Elias Samson? His jeans are awesome with the chains and rhinestones all over them. The jeans alone look brutal and rough enough to harm poor Jesse’s bare flesh.
Wow, GORGEOUS crushing Elbow Drop! Jesse bounced two feet high!
And he wrestles OK — check out this High Elbow Crusher! But there is something off in his “mysterious drifter” persona. He is too hearty and clean, his jeans are too fancy, for him to be a drifter. He seems too happy to be homeless. He looks like he would be perfectly at home playing clarinet in the Muppet house band.
That was a Clothesline, right??
Samson also will awkwardly botch moves, like jumping up as if to Dropkick Sorensen but delivering an Oops-I-Meant-Clothesline instead. Jesse is better than this, which makes his loss even more degrading.
Oh no! Not a Spinning Neck-Breaker! Not on Jesse!
Egads, why does every one of Sorensen’s opponents target his damaged neck?! Samson twisted his head around like an owl. It just makes me cringe and say a little prayer that my cute young jobber is OK.
It was a pleasure to watch Sorensen in action, even if he spent much of the time suffering under the drifter’s dusty boot. Hang in there kid, you’ve paid your dues so Karma owes you big time.
Meanwhile, rest assured that a certain demographic of wrestling fans enjoys very much seeing you harmed and helpless, and loves you for it. You are like my favorite wrestler who has never won a match.
HEY - I won, so you're supposed to love ME, not the hot jobber at my feet.
