Actually I think it happened because our bumper hung up on your bumper momentarily, and when it released there was a jolt which caused the bend. This is just a guess, but I think if we had lifted smoothly, instead of catching bumpers, the bend wouldn't have happened. I was a little nervous when it initially happened, but Clint was yelling to keep lifting so we did. It was pretty impressive to see - would've been really great to see during a match!
