Damn, Flo’s return was the kind of scene where you just wanna tell him, "Hey, buddy, even Batman needs a break after fighting Bane—no need to turn it into a Jurassic Park scene with a T-Rex in pajamas!". 58 seconds is fast, but we all know injuries can ruin everything in the blink of an eye. Is this the end? No, but it proves even legends have off days. Holloway did his job, and Flo paid the price. The real issue is he seems to be struggling to get back to his old form. Maybe he needs to focus on something other than the title, like in a good OSS 117 episode where the hero has to solve a mystery before saving the world. But hey, we’re keeping hope: a man like him will bounce back. As long as he listens to his body, otherwise we might end up with Flo 2.0… the "too old for roller coasters" version.
