Better, less taxing finishers

By Scott Keith on 7 September 2022


I think we can agree that it's probably a little too late to tell a guy like Ziggler that he needs a better looking finisher, but of the younger guys out there, who would you get in the ear of and suggest get a different finish?

I can't help but watch Bron Breakker’s press-powerslam deal and think of Mark Henry talking about how his shoulders are still messed up from press slamming big guys like Vader early on in his career. You can't be building to a gorilla press slam as your finish every night, especially when you get to the main roster and the guys start to get bigger. Nothing wrong with breaking it out occasionally, but I just don't see it lasting as the primary finish for a guy who will likely be winning as many matches as Bron will. Honestly, if I were him, I'd be going with the Steinerline and the Recliner all day to prolong my career. Hell, go with a Torture Rack or a Death Valley Driver if that's a little too on the nose and he wants distance himself from the Steiner name.
Oh yeah, the Steiner Recliner is like a cheat code with built in overness already. Completely agree.
The guys still doing the spears and diving headbutts need a talking to as well. The neck is not to be messed with.
