When will they learn that the RKO is a person on person impact move, and not person on surface?

Makes no sense.

I think the idea of the RKO/Diamond Cutter is that the person doing it slams the other person's face into the mat, driving them down neck-first. So, in kayfabe, the idea of an RKO onto a table makes sense.

In this video of Orton delivering the RKO to Cena onto a chair, you can see Cena's head slip out of his arm at the last second and Cena smashes face first into the chair.

I won't take Wade Barrett seriously until he finds a new finisher, It's a shame because his mic skills are impeccable and his in ring work is more than OK, just a shame that finisher looks so pathetic.

It is executed tons better than when Jeff Jarrett does "The Stroke." Cause that... just looks beyond horrible.

I still see it as a head on shoulder impact, like the Stunner.

When he clearly dives beyond the object, allowing his victim to hit it first, I'll buy it. Usually, however, his own back crashes through the table long before his opponent.

His finisher is an RKO/Diamond Cutter

Edge's spear looks weak as fuck.

I've no probs with the actual move itself, but it should be left to bigger guys like Goldberg and Rhino who make it look good.

I'd like to see a powerslam finisher. :/

I agree, like the snapping one Goldust and Samoa Joe do.

Nope the stunner the head is situated on the shoulder the impact of the fall focused on the jaw/upper throat.

RKO/Diamond cutter the head is situated where the elbow bends the other hand (more noticeable with the diamond cutter) is used to push the head downward.

Xero 10-29-2010 11:36 AM

Went back and watched the finish to Robbie's match. The finisher is fine. It has enough impact.

My point still stands. It doesn't matter which part of the head is involved.

The Pope 10-29-2010 01:37 PM

I was checking out Xero's posts and I agree that they do need to bring back some "regular" moves as finishers again.

thedamndest 10-29-2010 02:02 PM

The Skull Crushing Finale would be better if it was just The Stroke/Downward spiral. It's hard to believe someone like Sheamus couldn't power out of the full nelson set up.

Brigstocke 10-30-2010 02:48 AM

Sheamus could power outta a bear hug from a grizzly. Fella.

dronepool 10-30-2010 03:17 AM

The People's Elbow
The Worm
The Hogan Leg Drop
5 Knuckle Shuffle
"Knock Out" Punch
Clothesline From Hell

ect..

Cena's version of the STF bugs the shit out of me. As I've described before, it looks like an inverted, fuckup deathlock with a rear jaw vice.

I miss the running version that Davey Boy Smith does.

it's even worse...they gotta come up with something else that fits the character. :y:

The mandible claw is not weak or dumb. If actually done on someone and full pressure is applied, it is one of the most incredibly painful things you can imagine.

However, I never did quite understand why no one simply 'bit' down on Foleys hand or something when he did it, seems like an easy way out of it to me.

The Naitch 10-31-2010 01:17 AM

Wade Barrett's finisher

I also think it had to do with it being a sock that he most likely put on his penis that served him well during those lonely nights at sea

The fact that The Rock won some matches with The People's Elbow is dumb in itself.

Wait a minute...I just found out The Rock beat Hogan at WM18 with The People's Elbow...

...damn.

Wait I remember someone explain to me was that with the user controlling the opponent's jaw, that they wouldn't be able to bite since one bites with the lower jaw. If you try and hold down your lower jaw, it is hard to actually bite. At least that's how the move was "justified" to me. :o
