JR vs Me
Today, watching RAW. Orton did what I'd say was a lariat on Cody. JR goes and says "oh what what a closeline". I think this is wrong. He's always saying it. Is he allergic to saying "lariat" cos it's always a clothesline.
now he has loads of years and insider info on the biz on me, so I know crap compared. But seriously. If someguy has just turned round and some bugger turns him inside out (well not like the Rikishi days, but include that if u want), then that's a lariat surely? I mean, JR called the Whisper in the Wind the Twist Of Fate at GAB, he's got Carlito's move wrong, even the King corrected him today... so I dunno if he's losing it. |

So, is a lariat just a really strong clothesline?
And if it is, at what strength does it become a lariat? |

You were right. It was a lariat. Clotheslines are for pussies.

If you're asking what the differenc is...
A clothesline is esentially when the arm is extended, and you run into the opponent, the opponent runs into it. A lariat is when you actually swing your arm and connect. JBL's "Clothesline from hell" is actually a lariat, for the most part. |

You know, I don't care about the difference between a lariet and clothesline. What chaps my balls is that ever suplex JR calls is a modified suplex. Not a german, or t-bone, or northern lights. No it is just a modified suplex or just a throw. Damn JR is either dumb or lazy.

I think JR is told not to be too technical thats why people think he has gotten worse the past few years.

They have NEVER used lariat in the WWE. Always been clothesline.

I know RoH always use "Lariat" for McGuiness, hence why I was confused. Ach well. Just noticed it.
/me slaps all of WWE. Lariat is good. Do not fear this word. |

ROH uses lariet/ a lot of guys in ROH actually throw a lariat as they wrestle a more Japanese style. Lariats are big in Japan (Hansen, Kobashi, Kojima, etc). Then again, Japan in general is much bigger on strikes than WWE is. You'll probably never see a world title match end with a running elbow strike in the WWE.
Unless we're talking about metal plate gimick Lex Luger. |

Indeed. Also, when Stan Hansen was in the WWWF (i think it had 3 Ws then), he used the Lariat as his finish. |

I remember before WCW got huge, WWF did call a particularly hard clothesline a lariat, but WCWs announcers started calling virtually every clothesline a lariat, WWF started calling every clothesline/lariat a clothesline.
