5 finishers Seth Rollins can adopt in WWE
For weeks, the WWE fans have been clamoring for Seth’s return, often chanting “We want Rollins” during matches. Seth finally made his long awaited return during the Extreme Rules Pay Per View, and immediately made his intentions clear. Seth wants what he never lost in the first place – the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Seth also executed the Pedigree on Roman Reigns – a finisher Seth will probably use for the foreseeable future.
However, it made sense for Seth to use the Pedigree when he was in cahoots with The Authority. Seth was the chosen one, and it also seemed like Triple H was passing on the torch to a younger, hungrier Rollins. However, as it was made clear by Stephanie, Rollins and Stephanie/Triple H no longer have that “personal” relationship for Rollins to pay homage to Triple H.
Considering WWE’s ban on the Curb Stomp, today, we take a look at five alternate finishers Seth can adopt in the company.
#5. Avada Kedavra
WWE has come down hard on moves that could cause damage to an opponent. With the recent history of superstars who’ve suffered concussions and/or head trauma, it does appear to be a step in the right direction. It was the same reason why WWE banned the punt kick, which again is completely understandable. However, one move that has been used in WWE for more than the past two decades has been the Shining Wizard/Superkick.
Seth Rollins, being the incredible athlete that he is can pull many tricks out of the bag. Seth’s precision and execution of maneuvers have made him one of the safest workers in WWE (Sting’s case was different, as unfortunately it was a tragedy waiting to happen). Seth, during his time in FCW used the Avada Kedavra – a thrust kick while the opponent is on his knees. It proved to be an effective finisher, and would also minimize the risk of either superstar getting injured.
