WWE SuperThread *Spoilers*

Protect the wrestlers from potential head injuries and therefore lawsuits in the future

He needs to come up with a better finisher before Extreme Rules though. That DDT finisher he used on Raw is pretty shit

 

[redvscotty]

Vince finally watched American History X and realised what a curb stomp actually looked like.

He used to use a corkscrew 450 splash which looked awesome, might be time to crack it out again. I think he used it in the 3 Way back at the Royal Rumble.

But that's not a heel finisher, if you know what I mean

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

I get that, but it is a better idea than a modified DDT.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Perhaps he can go back to using his finisher from FCW, where he superkicks a kneeling opponent.

Didn't he hit that during the triple threat at the Rumble?

 

[Misanthrope]

What the f**k is with banning the curb stomp? The onus is entirely on the recipient to protect themselves. Rollins' foot barely touches their head.

Way to take the f**king wind out of the guys sails. Jesus.

 

[Parra Pride]

Apparently it's not outright banned, it just wont be used regularly.

 

[Misanthrope]

Gay.

JBL actually has some knowledge on the sport, he has been a coach of schoolboy RU teams since moving to Bermuda.

oh i'm not surprised he knows. i meant the majority of the wwe universe (well the yanks anyway)

 

[alien]

maybe his Standing Shiranui will be used more as a finisher.

another idea is to follow the turnbuckle powerbomb with a superkick to the kneeling opponent

I don't think the Skywalker looks particularly dangerous. It's like Sliced Bread #2 without the build-up.

Dolph and the Usos are already using the superkick pretty extensively too.

Perhaps he could adopt something like the Vertabreaker? Although it wouldn't be much good to put down larger opponents.

 

[pennywisealfie]

That's the most ridiculous shit. Get's rid of Curb Stomp due to fears of concussion, replaces it with a move that's far worse for concussions.

 

[azzah72]

I don't understand how the curb stomp is in the dangerous category!

It's no worse than a ddt or Rko in that their heads are held and "driven" into the mat where there is no grapple in the curb stomp at all, the opponent more or less just lightly headbutts the mat.

I can see RKO's and DDTs going a lot more wrong if someone slips or something.

It's much worse than a RKO and DDT. The flying headbutt is something that they should phase out too (if they haven't already done so) - we learnt what the long term effects of that one were with Chris Benoit.

 

[pennywisealfie]

It's much worse than a DDT.

Serious?

 

[Bulldog Force]

Serious?

If executed incorrectly yes.

 

[redvscotty]

My favorite bit was when he directly attributed the flying headbutt to a professional wrestler murdering his entire family before killing himself.
