PWD 395: Raw is Emmalina

[tec87]

Booker T is gonna run for mayor of Houston

 

[Sycho Sid]

AJ will beat Dolph then Taker will come back to challenge him at Rumble.

I am expecting this or Cena. This is really just a one off thing for the final Smackdown of 2016.

Makes more sense than Trump running for prez

Enough of the superkicks and ddt's to try to get a pin. Jeesh..

DDTs have basically been transition moves for 20 years now.

Fuck man...powerbombs are transition moves now...fucking powerbombs! What in the blue hell!

They should only be that if no superstar has that finisher. Roode and ambrose both use it. So it should be banned, same for superkicks.

But those are just powerbombs for like 6'2 guys.

If there was a legitimate giant right now, his powerbomb would probably finish a dude. (Except Taker, who uses the Last Ride as a near fall thing in his long matches)

Double Arm ddt is not a regular ddt, nor is the ol Edge Implant DDT that Roode uses.

DDTs have been used as near fall devices for longer than they have been used as a finisher.

I agree with superkicks though. That shit annoys the piss outta me.

Roman Reigns says bullshiz. Plus...it's a fucking powerbomb! I don't care if it's fucking James Ellsworth...it's a fucking powerbomb!

Roman Reigns is 6'3 man. And I agree, his Powerbomb > his spear.

But when it comes to the powerbomb, I always felt size matters. Which is why only giants and roid monsters (Batista) use them as finishers. Else they need something fancy to make it a finisher ala Kevin Owens.

You're dead to me. The powerbomb is one of those moves you can legit believe would kill someone, and you're ok with people kicking out of it left and right because they're short. With all the weak finishers and soft moves we see these days, I don't know how anyone can tolerate this!

I did not say I was OK with it, I have just accepted it. Besides, who outside of Owens and Reigns uses a Powerbomb at all these days?

The only one that has ever really bugged me is when Piledrivers became transition moves. That shit legitimately ends careers, and some motherfucker doing a jumping piledriver from the top rope only gets a two count?

If you count sit out powerbombs...a lot. Someone pulls that move out at least once a show...hell Harper did it last night. Piledrivers being transitions are probably the only thing I can think of being worse that we've seen in the E at least, and that was years ago. Now that they're banned, I wish they'd throw them in once and a while for story purposes like they did back in the territory day.

I guess I need to pay more attention. A Luke Harper powerbomb should kill a fool.

I feel they should start mentioning banned moves every now and then, get the audience accustomed to it, then break one out for a big feud or something, since they do not let people bleed anymore.

That's what I thought when Dolph kicked out of it.

I agree...build it up as a big deal, and then have someone like Miz piledrive some face on the floor...do the stretcher job...instant nuclear heat.

I don't even like dolphs selling its just to much sometimes. He's perfectly booked as upper mid card jobber it matches his skill set

Yeah when he's working with a soft opponent it looks corny as hell. He'll take spin bumps off of clotheslines that look like they wouldn't work in a Divas match.
