What move by a certain wrestler or wrestlers do you really appreciate how well it is perfectly executed everytime you see it preformed? For example Okada everytime he does a drop kick.
Oh, I have several. Cedric Alexander's Michinoku Driver is among them. He does it with such a snap that nobody else has ever done quite the same. Raven's DDT was just different enough to where I thought it was one that rivaled Jake Roberts' . Arn Anderson's Spinebuster is still good enough to be a finisher in my mind. The Rock had a very good one as well.
A little bit out of left field, but Droz had a really good sitout powerbomb. Baron Corbin's Deep Six is finisher-worthy. Christopher Daniels' Blue Thunder Bomb. Davey Boy Smith did a running powerslam so well that it didn't look good enough to be a finisher, if that makes sense.
My catch wrestling coach and tag team partner J Grooms did the best fisherman's suplex I've ever seen, and would get people with it in shoot wrestling matches. He would hook the head, leg and lock his fingers before doing the suplex, and bridge the pin with it, as opposed to locking the fingers after completing the suplex.
Could you tell us what former wrestlers are part of the creative team for WWE, AEW and TNA?
In AEW, RJ City, Sonjay Dutt, QT Marshall all contribute, and then you have all the coaches that help out here and there as well. In WWE, Drake Maverick aka Rockstar Spud is on the writing team, along with Road Dogg, Triple H. Eric Watts is also on the creative team -- you might remember him from WWE Tough Enough. In TNA, Tommy Dreamer, Delirious and others are on the team.
Are Gabe Kidd, Steve Maclin, and the Rascalz absolute locks to sign with AEW
No. I think Steve Maclin will stay with TNA. They really like him there. The Rascalz are definitely a TBD. At least one of them seemed like they were ready to move on, but I don't think that's for sure happening. If I were AEW, I'd bring in all four of the Rascalz and Killer Kelly for the tag team division. I do think Gabe Kidd end up in AEW. I just don't really know when.
