The snap he got on it was sick as fuck. Agreed on the DDT but I think Ron Simmons had the better spinebuster On 4/29/2023 at 10:54 AM, Rocco said: I always thought Eddie Guerrero had the best powerbomb. I liked it better when it was a big man move, but I’ve come around on how it’s used now. Wardlow’s looks like Kevin Nash’s, which isn’t a compliment (the snake eyes was a better finisher for him).

elliott Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Ricky Morton was the best at taking a backbreaker the way he'd just ragdoll all his limbs right at the moment of contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It simultaneously felt so big yet so intimate. A certain electricity always in the air like a living, breathing entity. Man do I miss it. I’ve heard the opposite, when it came to rock concerts. Infamously called the “rectum” for how bad the sound was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ma Stump Puller Posted September 27, 2023 Report Share Posted September 27, 2023 1 hour ago, JerryvonKramer said: Highest floor: not sure what means Highest ceiling: ditto Highest floor refers to range of consistency; not having great matches all the time per-se, but having consistently decent to quite good matches over a long period of time, being able to carry a wide range of wrestlers to a reasonable level of quality. Having a low floor would mean consistently not performing well. Highest ceiling relates to peak performance/potential: having a high ceiling would mean having really great matches, but maybe that's a peak they've only managed to reach one or two times and they've otherwise been pretty below that. Random examples off the top of my head Misawa, for example, would have a tremendously high ceiling, but questionable floor given his pre/post-prime work. Undertaker I guess would count here as well. Osamu Kido would have a great floor given his decades of reliable mid-card work and as a tag guy with whoever NJPW fed to him, but his peak matches are more or less a dozen at best, so not that high of a ceiling. etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Okay in that case highest floor is 100% either Arn Anderson or William Regal. Highest ceiling to my mind is Hase or Yatsu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
