I figured the idea behind signature moves was always a Bruce Lee don't fear the man who knows 10 000 kicks, fear the man whose practiced 1 kick 10 000 times kinda thing. It's their move that they can execute better than anything else in their arsenal, and their match plan is generally devoted to setting up conditions where it's lethal.
We even see the same kind of thing in shoot fighting. MMA fighters try to tailor the fight to create the circumstances that are most favorable for them.
I dunno, if I had a badass move that always won for me, I'd give it a cool ass nickname too. We always named our shootout moves as kids playing street hockey, etc.

I'm fine with generic names. Bodyslam, powerbomb, superkick, etc. But Five Knuckle Shuffle, End of Days, etc. Just stupid. When you look into it, really isn't anything "generic" about 'powerbomb' or 'superkick', either. They're better than Rock Bottom, 619, F5, Attitude Adjustment ... I could go on and on. |

KO and Drew.....WOW,that was good. You know, sometimes I forget that Kevin used to be called "Mr. Wrestling" and then he reminds me. That whole thing was amazing. I haven't seen either of those guys look that good in ages. |

Seemed like an alright show. Main event being a random nothing match is weird especially when they could’ve went with AJ vs Lashley or Owens vs Drew

It’s interesting. He definitely can sell brilliantly, but for some reason he often just chooses not to. He just seems to prefer the big bump, get all your crap in, 100 miles a minute style. |

I’ll take “Things that aren’t true” for 500 Alex knee and shoulder gets worked on, and then he just springs back to life as if nothing happened and shows no signs of “injury” yea, that’s called sucking at selling. |

I wish they would un-unify the WWE/Universal and tag team championships.
The last few shows have been great but it would also be nice to have something for everyone to be fighting for. I like the Ali/Cedric team, but what's the point? I hope they can build up the tag divisions more and split the titles.
IMO, they are doing a great job of building up both the US and Intercontinental championships. I get it, most of the matches without a title involved have a grudge element included, but it would still be nice for there to be more titles to go for.

I expected Gargano to come out after the match to confront Theory. Underwhelming ending to raw tbh
