What if wrestlers with supernatural powers(Undertaker, Kane, Ultimate Warrior, Sting) use their supernatural powers as their finisher. Say Kane uses a lightning attack as a finisher, would you complain or mark for it?

Supernatural powers would be kinda cool. I think it would be cool if the camera shook hard when a big punch was thrown or have explosions.

John Tenta should have really caused natural disasters everytime he destroyed a jobber or just before he watched in horror as Hogan Hulked up.

Would something like lightning count as an illegal object?

I think it would largely bomb in the ratings in a major promotion. Smaller and gimmick promotions like WSX or Hustle it can fit if done properly.

Some would argue that Hogan and Cena have already done this.

Didnt davey McLame do this in the dying days of the GLOW? Had a voodoo priestess who hypnotized her opponents with magic dust (its GLOW of course it's believable) I remember one where the preistess made a tag team switch brains (i cant make this shit up) but it didnt work and was actually well sold (they swapped each other's moves perfectly) and well so she switched one back but not the other causing all hell to break loose and beat each other up for her to get a cheap pin Yeah Davey McLame makes vince russo look sober

Some would argue that Hogan and Cena have already done this. Actually, I always saw Hogan and Cena as guys who entered cheat codes during their matches. On that note, I would say that the Warrior has supernatural powers which derive from shaking the ropes. The only argument against that is John Tenta can shake all of the ropes, but still does not gain any powers.

Say Kane uses a lightning attack as a finisher, would you complain or mark for it? I've never understood why Undertaker or Kane never simply just blast their opponents with lightning at the start of a match & call it a night. That's guaranteed victory right there.

Maybe they're just not that smart? No. Wrestling is sacred, as it taught to mankind by Hercules. Their powers are suspended during a sacred contest. You know, like in the Mummy 2. Or Mortal Kombat 2.

Or maybe just maybe, they are too scared to use them because of some unforseen consequences like if taker struck someone with lighting then they would have that power too, or if Cena ever lost a match then someone else can overcome the odds like him.
