How many ways are there to tie a woman to a bed/bar stool? Two? Seven? Twelve? Knot! While it's true that the Devil's in the details, we stopped counting at an even dozen - and the first half of the Cory Lane segment was far from over.

Darby Daniels receives identical treatment in Raw 4, but the ante is upped somewhat when she's tied to a rack and suspended from a ceiling device. Frankly, neither of these gals emotes with enough authenticity to make such acts of terrorism believable; but it's more a lack of directorial insight that fails them. Showing the binding is one thing - making it stressful takes near-Hitchcockian talent. (He didn't call it Rope for nuthin'.)

If loving-yet-redundant footage of taught laundry rope is the bailiwick of your specialty customers, they may get more out of this than us here at the office.
