Monday night’s episode of WWE Raw was headlined by a Last Man Standing match between Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman. It was your typical Last Man Standing affair, full of awkward standing around and the crowd not counting the numbers the referee is counting. (It was a match full of counting.)
The undisputed high point of the match — other than a Samoan Drop through a table and hilarious Torontonian crowd reactions, probably — was when Strowman cut off a Reigns spear attempt with the best defense a person could ask for: an office chair, thrown at full force from 10 feet away, right into the mush.

BLAMMO. Let’s watch that again, from a different angle, shall we?

HA, YES. Let’s go ahead and watch both of them, forever.

This is so wonderful and hilarious, because on one hand, that wouldn’t really hurt, because you’re getting hit in the face by the comfiest parts of a comfy, padded chair. On the other hand, it’s not like a nice office chair is LIGHT, and it’s neither easy to throw, nor probably very fun to get hit in the gob with.
You’re forgiven if you spend the rest of the week seeing just how far YOU can throw a office chair. But you probably can’t compete with Strowman, who sometimes flips ambulances just because he can.
