Safety? Overdone? Looks stupid?

What are some moves that you feel need to be used less (or not at all)?

German/Belly to Belly suplexes

Neck injuries and so much can go wrong once the wrestler is released. I remember reading someone saying they won’t take Germans anymore and if you look back through history neck injuries started becoming more prevalent along with German suplexes. Same logic for Belly to Belly.

Spinning backhand/elbows

Looking at you Jericho and Kingston These look horrible and always will. Jericho has a plethora of moves and Kingston using any old school japanese finisher would work with his character.

The dive over the ropes and onto 10 guys that fall apart like bowling pins. It’s unbelievable but it’s not horrible, just way overdone IMHO.

    Super kicks. Especially the usos. Their super kick is so half assed and looks like they are trying to be gentle. At least the bucks makes them look good.

      I specifically avoided saying Super Kicks because I knew it was going to be one of the first responses. Yeah, some people need to be brought to the side and told it’s not a super kick, it’s barely even a thrust kick…so please stop. Still want to see a bucks Usos match with a Mexican standoff 4 way superkick one day though.
