OMGZ ITS SO UNREALISTICS!!!

Yeah, along with 90% of every other move in wrestling.

I honestly think it's one of those things that became cool to dislike, with prepubescent smark morons, and somehow caught on here.

It's because unlike most wrestling moves, it looks like the move REQUIRES the person taking the move to flip himself onto his head.

I've seen one Canadian Destroyer that looked remotely realistic. It was Shuji Kondo doing it to Kaz Hayashi, and it was done with Kaz on the second rope, and Shuji on the top rope, and done as a counter of sorts.


Also, on a totally different note, Goto did a badass sunset flip/code red type move off the top rope to Tanahashi in their title match. Everyone needs to watch that match, as it was pretty good.

Don't get me wrong, the first few times you see it you're like "Holy Crap!" but then once you get past that you can just see the glaringly obvious act of the guy flipping himself onto his head.

I personally can't stand the clothesline. It's a move that looks like it REQUIRES the person taking it to fall down.

The aforementioned Canadian Destroyer is at 4:30 about... Although upon closer inspection, it may have been a wierd DDT....

Kondo vs Hayashi was amazing.

I might agree if it was heavyweight wrestling, but you kind of have to go into a cruiserweight match with a suspension of disbelief, as most of the stuff they do is ridiculously unrealistic.

Also, banging a guys head on the steps or announce table is the most ridiculously unrealistic looking move ever, and makes the CD look like a terry funk right hook.

Destor

Fignuts makes a valid point, but two shitty moves doesn't make a left.

Actually, I hate that move too. It looks shitty, and has the impact of a hip toss.

I was actlly just about to post this.

And really, the CD is not THAT unrealistic. People don't complain about a sunset flip, but that's really all it is, is a higher impact version, where the guy lands on his head instead of back.

Hip tosses aren't realistic.

Kane Knight
11-16-2007, 09:56 AM
As "deadly" as it's supposed to be, I can't bring myself to buy it. Even amidst other cruiser moves.

Most unrealistic move ever, or whatever? Naw. Doesn't mean I actually think of it as good, though.

Nah, sunset flips have the legs under the arms. You can actually pull someone down like that, and they're just going from a bent down posistion, to being on their back.

THe CD, they're basically doing a backflip because youre jumping with their head between your legs.

I'm not saying it doesn't look cool, but it's in the top ten most unrealistic wrestling moves... Assuming that list doesn't count DDT and Dragongate.

What, how can you not love a fed where bats, ladders, and blow up dolls win matches.... And where people are given magical powers after being bitten by snakes, travel through time, etc.

Seriously, the ONLY version of the Canadian Destroyer that should be done with any regularity is the Danshoku Destroyer ( Exact same move, but done with the guys head inside Dino's pants.)

Normally, at this point, I'd say, "Easy, he's not a faggot."

But since it's Hanso we're talking here, I'm not entirely sure that one works.

I wish that old CZW fan would come in here and defend Ladder like he used to defend Mondo.
