WWE: 5 Ideas for Braun Strowman’s New Finishing Move
5. Go to Heaven
Most wrestling moves in WWE are fairly generic. Today’s WWE superstars use a lot of moves that share a lot in common. Neckbreaker variations, the same Powerbombs, DDTs and the same strikes and suplexes, all of them are used frequently in WWE. Then there are moves like this one, which stand out far more than others.
What we’ve got here is basically a wrist-clutch Olympic Slam. Used once by NJPW mainstay Hirooki Goto, the move looks both painful and dangerous. It’s a perfect move for someone that needs to use a ‘lifting’ move to show off their strength, like Braun Strowman. It’s one thing for Strowman to lift someone and then drop them without leaving his feet.
But a move looks far more painful if Strowman lands on top of them or uses his own weight to amplify impact. This move would achieve that. If you were to see Strowman lifting someone and then dropping them backward, it would look far more painful than anything he has used thus far.
