cwoy2j Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I think Rude Awakening style neckbreakers should be a heel move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin877 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 The Piledriver, should definitely be a heel move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Special exceptions are made to guys that were famous with their move and turn face/heel. It's okay for Lawler to do a piledriver as a face. Randy Savage isn't going to stop doing the big elbow just because he's a bad guy or a good guy again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I wonder if a guy could get heat today by turning heel and refusing to do his finisher? Maybe set his opponent up for the finisher, grab the mic, and tell the crowd: "You came here to see put this guy away with my flying elbowdrop. Sorry. I'm going to win the match with a spinning toe hold and you're going to like it!" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Heart Punch should be a heel move. I mean, you're trying to stop a dude's heart....if that's not heelish, what is?! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 If it is then Becky Lynch is the worst heel in wrestling because she stops my heart every time I see her. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that was more Foley railing against the hardcore style and refusing to give the fans the sort of bumps they want. Also, that was about 20 years ago. I'm wondering if something more traditional would work today - like if the Rock turned heel and stopped using his signature moves, and instead of the people's elbow, he adopted a World of Sport moveset and started beating people with a leglock. Edit: The idea of the Rock doing a WoS tribute gimmick is giving me the giggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 This idea would probably only work today as a low-card comedy bit. Maybe Backlund is the key. He gets a whole stable of flailing jobbers and insists they only grapple while Backlund berates the crowd for not appreciating real wrestling. And they lose and lose and lose until they've lost enough that he's willing to teach them the secret of the cross-face chicken wing for reeeelz. And they win for ahwile and then it all goes away when Jeremy Piven needs to promote something and beats them all at the literal same time with sleeper holds.

(BP) Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 How about the real life equivalent of when you're playing a wrestling game and you just keep hitting the same move over and over because it's effective and your opponent can't get up in time to stop it from being done again and your brother is like, "Stop it! This isn't even fun anymore!" And you're like "It's not against the rules!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammo~! Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Is that why Jericho smashed Chyna's hand with a hammer? She kept beating him at WCW/NWO for N64 with his own jumping sobat kick? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had someone throw a controller because I did something like that in a fighitng game, and we were in our mid-twenties at the time. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Dave Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I was bigger than most of my friends, so I just told them every time they spammed a move in the game, id hit them with it right there in the basement.

Sammo~! Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Remember when Lex Luger went from the narcissist to the patriot but the announcers were still playing up that he could clobber guys with the metal plate in his forearm? That never seemed very sporting to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
