Note to Kim and Asia: this isn't really talking about Benoit's death, so I thought this would be fine to make a separate thread about it, as it's interesting to discuss.
When Eddie Guerrero died, you had guys like Chavo and Rey who would pay tribute to him by continuing to do some of his signature moves, such as the 3 Amigos, Frog Splash, etc.
Do you see the same happening with Benoit? Will the WWE allow guys to use the 3 German Suplexes, Flying Headbutt, or the Crippler Crossface?
Also, do you think they'll ban the Sharpshooter? I know Benoit didn't invent it, but he was the only guy who was still using it and winning matches with it in the current business.
Personally, I think they'll ban all of his moves and won't give guys the permission to use them due to the circumstances.

No, but I have my doubts about a lot of guys using the Crossface.
Other guys use the Sharpshooter, German suplexes, and the diving headbutt. Those moves are standard wrestling moves. Benoit was one of the only guys to ever use the Crossface, so I think it won't be banned, but more of a taboo type of thing.

I bet they ban the crossface, headbutt, and 3 suplexes... BUT there is no way they will ban the sharpshooter... That's associated with Bret Hart, not Chris Benoit

They won't ban the sharpshooter. When someone does that move, they'll think of Bret Hart not Benoit. After all it was his finisher.

That makes no sense. Most of those are commonly used moves.

Oh yeah, let's ban a headbutt off the top rope, a cross face, a german suplex, & a sharpshooter because Chris Benoit used them. No, they are standard wrestling moves.

They won't take them away but commentators won't say "He's using this as a tribute to the late, great Chris Benoit"... I think for the headbut it will be a "tribute to the late, great Dynamite Kid", the Crossface will be "a move invented by Dean Malenko" and the German suplexes could be seen as homage to Eddie Guerrero

No one in WWE really used any of his moves and I doubt anyone there is going to try and pay tribute to him anytime soon so I don't think we'll see any change really.

If they keep the cross face then it wont be known as The Crippler Crossface.

They sure as hell better not. I seriously doubt they will in the first place. I would take Bret Hart over Benoit any day.

If they ban anything it will probably only be the crossface.
