Gonzalez Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Speaking of top rope double team moves, somebody needs to start using the Powerplex as a regular finish. I think the Real Americans should pull it off. What's the point of all these double team moves if a one person top-rope splash can get you the pin. How about one wrestler executes a finisher, while the other one holds down the opposing partner so he won't break up the pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzalez Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 You know what doesn't look cool? The figure four. And it was way more over than the Powerplex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GojiColin Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 You know what doesn't look cool? The figure four. And it was way more over than the Powerplex. Honestly, it looks cool when the person trapped in it does his best to make it look like a killer move. But in truth it's not the move that makes the wrestler, rather the wrestler that makes the move. Otherwise The Miz would be tapping out big names right now.

manzk Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 The Real Americans work so hard to make their out of date gimmick work (or at least be entertaining). They look like they're having fun and I like to see that. They should just stay as a goofy heel team that the crowd loves instead of trying to make Cesaro a singles babyface. He is a natural heel worker, he struggles doing promos, he is a hell of a worker but he also pulls off the goofy stuff so let him be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't they switch him to being a goody singles babyface at some point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADCAP Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Because they're both hosses and would look ridiculous getting laid out by some heels(I know...I know). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manzk Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think that they can touch the line and act like babyfaces in some situations, but they can't be babyfaces with that gimmick. So let them be cartoony heels that the crowd likes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What doesn't look cool is the spinning toehold that some of you guys have been clamoring for a comeback. It's like watching a guy start to do a figure four and then can't figure out how to finish it, and he just starts and stops, starts and stops. Just fall down and put your other leg over his.

Lazlo Woodbine Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 It's Rocky Johnson and whatever Virgil was called at the time, according to the page I first saw it on - can't embed straight from there but there's actually a Brickhouse Brown gif right after it.

Gonzo Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 This would be just as cool if it were just a loop of the one in red going from one corner to the other. But the German at the end is great, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Remember when Kyoko could move and was so damn athletic? I men age slows everyone but it took Kyoko like, what? 2-3 years to go from athletic and acrobatic to the thing that Joshi? James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
