I Don't Get The Love For Christian

After thinking about it for awhile I think I have one major critique of Christian and it is that he is too good at hitting the Kill Switch efficiently. He's so quick about it that sometimes the match is over before the fans can get into the psyche that the match is ending now.

He had a really great match on the Road to Money in the Bank on Main Event against Damien Sandow. The match had a great back and forth pace and the finish was pretty quick. Christian had been thrown out of the ring by Sandow for a breather-move but Christian came back quickly and snapped the Kill Switch for the win. Great match sort of ruined by a flash-bang finish. You need to give time for the audience to understand there is a finisher so they can get excited about seeing it happening. "The Outta nowhere approach" isn't really for everybody or for every move especially for one with the movement the move is supposed to have. I also think he's been putting it on way too safely like Triple H has with the Pedigree for years. Not saying I want him to hurt people with the move, but it looked better when he drove the head more downwards to the mat instead of spreading it out.
