finishing moves have become as ridiculous as entry music

remember when Jake Roberts' DDT was one of the most powerful of all finishers? Now it's no more damaging than an arm bar or suplex.
It's funny how that's happened. I can remember when a DDT, pile driver, suplex, powerslam etc was a legit finishing move and sleepers actually worked. Now it's like killing a zombie.
 
superhogan ruined the sleeper.

does perfect's kid use the fisherman suplex? i've yet to watch him in a match.

The piledriver would still sell as a finisher, if they companies hadn't essentially outlawed it for liability reasons.

No, he uses a variation of the neckbreaker. In a company so starved for star power, I'm still befuddle as to why they are playing up that he is Perfect's son. Of course, they've managed to completely screw up Ted, Jr's career.

He's probably better known as "the guy hanging out with Maryse." at this point.

it would be different if he were a no talent stiff like Cody Rhodes. He showed he could go head up with Orton and sell it to the crowd when Legacy broke up. Then, they send him back to dealing with a bunch of curtain jerkers. Ridiculous.

At least they looked painful.

Some of the moves used as finishers now are pitiful.

Cena..... I'm looking at you.

There are some great maneuvers being used in the smaller organizations but the WWE's stance on limiting neck injuries and the like, limit the options.

I like both guys. I heard there was talk of making Ted, McGillicutty (worst name ever), the Harris' (Rotundo and his younger brother), and Rhodes a stable a while ago. Guess they nixed it. Called fortunate sons or something. Would be way better than their current roles and way better than these jokes in Nexus.

I think rotundo got hurt that's why they went a different direction, but nexus is doing just fine.

Yeah, that's why Vince is out there begging MMA guys and movie stars to come and save Wrestlemania. Nexus is trash. They aren't even on the level of the nWo B team. Between those clowns and The Mizzerable, Vince will be lucky if he can give WM away.

The overall product is no good i agree, but nexus and the miz definitely aren't part of the problem.

Yeah, they're just the tag team champions and the world champion. How could they have anything to do with people changing the channel in droves?

The storylines/feuds are the problem. The tag team championships hasn't meant a thing in years. As far as the miz im glad he's champ. People complain that the same guys are always in the title picture then when someone new wins it they still complain. I think he's well deserving of it. Randy orton has sucked the last few months and everyone is tired of the ridiculously long cena run.

Only when it's a profoundly retarded piece of reality show trash who gets the belt. He isn't worthy of being the OVW TV champ.
 
who would you not gripe about being champ?
I don't have any problem with Orton being the champion. If it weren't for the talentless goon squad following him around, I wouldn't complain about Barrett holding the title. Seamus or Morrison wouldn't upset me.

Morrison doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the title picture.

Oh, I forgot. You're supporter of marble mouthed pieces of trash whose wrestling talents make Santino look like Dory Funk.

The miz in no way is a terrible wrestler and light years better on the mic than morrison.
