ok, for the people who watched Survivor Series and saw the HBK/Orton match you know what im talking about. if you didnt see,the topic name says it all....so is hbk going to get in trouble for doing the crossface? the crowd was pretty shocked to see him do that. what do you guys think?

It's just a move.
Like the Ankle Lock and The Sharpshooter.

Its not a big deal at all. Its Pro Wrestling. The cross face is a Pro Wrestling move. See the connection?

I hope you people don't think he just decided to do that move.

He obviously knew he was suppose to use it. But yea I thought WWE banned anything related to Benoit?

I think most of the wrestlers find the Benoit murder acse to be stupid and dont care what the police or media says about him. HBK is probably using it as a tribute to Benoit

I was surprised when he did it, but it's not like it was offensive or anything. It's just a wrestling move...

I found it funny. Using the Crossface and Ankle Lock. Angle was probably smiling at home knowing he wasnt forgotten. and |>>Champ<<| is right, I thought they banned moves like that

I, like most of the people in Hooters tonight were shocked when he put it on. I seriously thought the WWE had asked most of the wrestlers to not use his moves, but I guess not.

I was shocked as hell. I guess this is his way to pay tribute, or something.

Umm yes it did say a chokehold was used....but I dont think any article would go into specifics about what chokehold was used, because its irrelevant. So I honestly doubt he used his own finishing move on his son.

^ Who knows what Benoit did to his son. The guy was nuts at that time, so he could've done anything, even The Crossface to his own son. I wouldn't rule it out.
But anyway, I was shocked when he applied The Crossface to Orton tonight. And I'm sure it WASN'T a tribute to Benoit or anything like that. Why would a christian like Shawn Michaels who happens to have a wife and two kids want to pay tribute to a guy that murdered his wife and son and then hung himself?? I seriously doubt it was a tribute to Benoit at all.

It was shocking, quite exciting, and helped build up a great match. I'll allow it.
