FU...no more

[KingofOldSchool]

Speaking of Cena, I hear his FU finishing maneuver is being renamed "The Throwback" which works for me and is certainly easier for me to communicate to my 5 year old granddaughter who's a Cena fan of sorts. It will be interesting to see how much knee jerk reaction this name change creates in the illustrious media. Knowing today's trends and the vocal minority of some fans who have enough product knowledge to be dangerous, too much.

I thought he already had a move called the throw back.

Ya know, back when he had more than 5...

As long as they don't remove the original throwback from the Smackdown series, I don't give a shit.

[James Steele]

The name would make more sense if they called it the "Cena Merchandise". He hasn't worn a throwback in ages. I also like the name "SLAM IS POOPY".

[JT]

VINCE: Thanks to our new direction, we will destroy everything that people liked about John Cena, and jam him down people's throats till people can't stand it anymore...We'll make millions. Anyone disagree?

***crickets chirp***

VINCE: Oh, that's right, I fired everyone who disagreed with me...I'm so awesome. :)

[Jeritron]

To be honest I don't think it's all that bad. I mean, the move and the guy giving it isn't going to be any better or worse from the change. The name was stupid anyways. It was funny as a parody of the F5, when he was in the midcard, but now that both of those things are long gone it's pretty pointless.

My two cents is, the name change is inconsequential here. Still, if they're going to change the name they might as well have him start using a new move altogether to accompany the name, since it sucks to begin with.
I've also seen a major move undergo a name change while staying the same in the middle of a run. Maybe early in a career, or with a promotion or gimmick change, but never like this.

[JT]

Anyone want to start a poll on what the STFU will be renamed as?

[KingofOldSchool]

They should just call it "Vintage Cena"

[Anybody Thrilla]

I don't really mind the change except for the fact that he already has a fucking move called the Throwback. They couldn't think of ANYTHING else to call it? Nothing at all? Come on.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Call it the fucking Cena Slam for all I care, but why take the name of a move he already uses?

[James Steele]

Cenation Deathlock

[Xero]

I bet Austin's going to give us a two-thumb salute at the HOF.

And DX is going to start telling us to "BRUSH IT!"

[James Steele]

When they were going with the whole "ANGRY CENA" thing against Jericho, it would have been the perfect chance to give him another finisher or at least start delivering the F-U like a DVD instead of a Fireman's Slam.

In my personal opinion, if this were the only change made then I wouldn't care. It's better marketing I guess. However, he's also giving annoying, heat killing promos and using terms like "poopy" to describe heels...all on top of the fact that he's constantly pushed onto us...changing the name of the FU is just another leaf to the pile for the disappointment we call John Cena.

[Jeritron]

Makes sense. DX gets back together about twice a day

[James Steele]

I actually think Cena could do a mean looking F5, but the move flopped when they tried to have Big Show and somebody else use it after Brock left.

[Jeritron]

Wrestling will only get edgy if the president is caught getting a blowjob in the oval office. It's all up to Obama to bring about change in WWE

[Kane Knight]

Anyone want to start a poll on what the STFU will be renamed as?

That and the Five Knuckle Shuffle.

One of them is going to totally be named the Cenation.

[James Steele]

"Freestyle Fist Drop"

They'll rename it the Five Knuckle Shuffle

Gotta consolidate that shit

[Kane Knight]

You kidding? Probably change it to "John Cena."

Which arguably is the same as "suck it," only less flagrant.

[.44 Magdalene]

When they were going with the whole "ANGRY CENA" thing against Jericho, it would have been the perfect chance to give him another finisher or at least start delivering the F-U like a DVD instead of a Fireman's Slam.

Or the Angry Cena thing against Randy Orton, or Edge, or

Etc. etc. etc.

He's Angry Cena like, anytime he has a serious feud (see: Not with Khali or Umaga).

[Kane Knight]

He's spoiling for a fight.

[Jeritron]

Fire the guy who uses these moves. Solves everything

[Jeritron]

He's spoilin for an asshole

[Tazz Dan]

I'm guessing:

Cena Unbeatable Now Tap

The C.U.N.T

[Kane Knight]

Howabout the Hush the Heck Up?

HTHU! HTHU! DRINK YOUR MILK AND TAKE YOUR VITAMINS BAH GAWD!!!!!

[Haze]

You kidding? Probably change it to "John Cena."

Which arguably is the same as "suck it," only less flagrant.

Personally I am more offended by the former of the two.

[Lock Jaw]

They should change the STFU also if they're changing the FU. It's probably even worse than the FU.

Little Girl: "Daddy, daddy! What's that move called?"
Dad: "STFU! :mad:"

[Xero]

They'll start calling the STFU the Protobomb.

[Kane Knight]

YMCA! YMCA! STOLE COLD!

[Fox]

CENA: "The idea of the F-U is that I know it's not the most devastating looking move in the WWE or anything like that, but it's like Hogan and the leg drop, you know? When it happens, you know its the end of the match not because of the move, but because of the person delivering it."

ME: "You know people make fun of Hogan for that finisher, right?"

CENA: "I'm not aware of any such thing, no."

[James Steele]

Me: It isn't 1989 either Johnny boy...

[Mr. Nerfect]

I actually think Cena could do a mean looking F5, but the move flopped when they tried to have Big Show and somebody else use it after Brock left.

Matt Morgan giving Big Show an F-5 through the announce table was pretty cool.

[Mr. Nerfect]

It sort of irks me when a wrestler takes an old move's name, and gives it to a new move. Goldust had his neckbreaker finish called "The Curtain Call" after he returned in 2002 for a while, but eventually they started calling it the "Director's Cut", I think. For a while Ron Simmons was having his Spinebuster called the "Dominator."

The Throwback is the name of John Cena's flipping bulldog move, but I guess that's just "whaddamaneuva!" now. The STFU will probably be renamed to the "HLR." Hustle, Loyalty, Respect, don't you know.

[PorkSoda]

I think they'll change the STFU to OMGWTFBBQ!

[TapOut]

In fitting with Cena's character, the FU should be called the "Happy Flip".

[GD]

FU: Lift and throw.
5 Knuckle Shuffle: Rub Shoulder and fist to the head.
STFU: Kamasutra postion # 99.

[Afterlife]

This is so lame. Will they also rename John Cena? Just call him Blandy B. Blanderson?

[Juan]

John Cena sucks

[The Optimist]

The evolution of a thread.

[TapOut]

I still call the Curtain Call the Curtain Call because it's how I learned it, just as I call a Wall's of Jericho a Liontaimer, and the Un-Prettier an Impailer. It's not me being spiteful, but just how I learned of the move and how I remember them.

I recall the director's cut asa cpompletely different move.

[KingofOldSchool]

According to JR, the STFU will be dropping the U.

[KingofOldSchool]

U...Get Out!

[Xero]

According to JR, the STFU will be dropping the U.

SHUT THE FUCK! SHUT THE FUCK! SHUT THE FUCK!

[Kane Knight]

Get the U out.

[Xero]

So wait, how are they going to do the next Playboy pictorial?

Just a Vince McMahon article?

[Juan]

or maybe a full spread :naughty:

[Kane Knight]

Hopefully, the KMA club is gone.

[KingofOldSchool]

But the Vince McMahon LMC club will debut...

Oh God. Without Juvenile "cock" jokes, DX will have almost no material for reunions!

Hair and nose jokes are SOOOOO edgy.

HHH: You know Vince, word on the street is that you LOVE.....chicken!

VINCE: Why yes, I do enjoy a nice bucket of fried chicken from time to time.

HHH: ........oh.

[Afterlife]

According to JR, the STFU will be dropping the U.

So, they'll just be calling it what it is? Innovative.

[Afterlife]

So, to be clear.... Stevie Richards no sooner gets fired, and they give Charlie hass the mockingbird gimmick AND the company gets censored? This is just ridiculous booking....

[HBKool96]

i really dont mind the name change. dave (my stepdad) always got mad when he heard fu on tv.

[FourFifty]

Who?
Dave?
Dave's not here!

[Kane Knight]

But he wa sokay with the cock jokes, right?

[Theo Dious]

You know what pisses me off about this? The name Pedigree hasn't made any god damn sense in years, and they never changed that, but they'll change this as part of their "return to 1994" initiative. :nono:

Pretty sure Trips calls himself "The best" rather often.

Dave is a faggot. You can tell him I said that. He fucks your mom though, so he obviously has no respect for you. I do too, and I feel the same.

[thedamndest]

Worked shoot.

[Kane Knight]

He looks like a stray dog. Pedigree is an ironic term.
