Thoughts on Michaels using the crossface?

I personally don't like it. It brings back too many bad memories.

what is your opinion on this matter?


Rage,rage against the dying of the light. Do not go gently into that good night.

At the end of the day it's a Wrestling move, yes it was used as a signature move by that one guy who I can't seem to remember but I'm sure he wasn't anything important but the point is... I can't actually remember now. Oh yes, the point is that it's a wrestling move, and regardless of the fact that it was a certain persons signature move someone else using it shouldn't make a difference. You should just see it for what it is and thats Michaels using a submission move. Nothing more.

This is probably not a great example, but it'd be like seeing the Undertaker or someone using the piledriver back in '98 and saying it gave you a bad feeling because it was the same move used by Owen when he accidently injured Austin. You just have to see the moves for what they are and not associate them with incidents or people unless it is being used specifically as a tribute. The Austin/Owen thing is probably a bad example but I really couldn't think of anything else.

Ok, to be serious:

1) Ben-who didn't invent the move, he just used it.
2) Don't we usually laugh at WWE's insistance on erasing Ben-who's existence?
3) It's Shawn Michaels. He can and will do whatever the fuck he wants.

I also don't see anyone complaining that Jeff's dive on Orton last week made them sad because it reminded them of Owen's death or anything.

Shut up, it is a fucking wrestling move. I like Micheals using it because it shows it is just a move, not something taboo that must never be used again.

He used it on Orton during the match at Survior Series when Micheals couldn't use Sweet Chin Music. He also used the Sharpshooter, unforutately Hebner was on TNA and couldn't yell ring the damn bell.

I see no problem with him using it. By this logic it would be like saying that Kurt cant use the trip-germans anymore and nobody can use a diving headbutt. They are wrestling moves and they are being used in a WRESTLING match.

Chris Benoit made the Crippler Crossface famous; thus it's name stemming from Benoit's "Crippler" nickname.

After the tragedy took place, it became morosely ironic that Benoit choked his son and wife to death, when his finishing move is reminiscent of someone attacking the face and mouth of an opponent.

Seeing Shawn use the move does make me cringe, and it's not because I'm too sensitive, but more of a subconscious thing.

Seeing Shawn use the move does make me cringe, and it's not because I'm too sensitive, but more of a subconscious thing.
You are a gay.

You are a cocksucker.
Yes, what happened with Bemoit was horrible, but his personal life? Unless you were is buddy or if you're really Daniel Benoit with a computer in a casket you know nothing about his personal life until the very end.

Shawn idolizes Canadian technicians and their superior submission holds.

Chris Benoit should not be erased from memory. Yeah, some horrible shit happened, but it really shouldn't effect us. The WWE are idiots for pretending Chris Benoit never existed instead of saying "Yeah, he did something wrong, but let's remember the great professional wrestler." It is idiotic to ban any move associated with Benoit.

Personally, my biggest problem with Shawn using the Crossface, is that it doesn't really seem to fit his wrestling style. It's a minor complaint. I'd like to see someone who could use having the move in their repertoire use it. MVP used to use a variation called "TTB," which I feel he could use.

Michaels and WWE should have realised that the use of the Crossface would invoke memories of Chris Benoit. Everybody who saw that move applied must have instantly thought "Benoit", whether they had a problem with the use of the move or not.... it is synonymous with Benoit.

I think it was more surprising he used it than insulting.
