“Retro” moves

By Scott Keith on September 20, 2018


Are there moves that you feel are in need of a comeback? Personally, I always dug the Russian Legsweep and Slingshot Suplex, but you rarely, if ever, see it used anymore.
The slingshot suplex has made a comeback here and there, especially with Tessa Blanchard becoming a bigger star, and guys like Dolph use the legsweep pretty frequently.
For me, I've been on the bus of waiting for someone to really turn the IRON CLAW back into a deadly finisher again. I'd also say the standard piledriver, but WWE's ban of the move is a smart one and I'm fine with guys saving their necks.
