Wasn't Rollins' move called The Black Out once? Or was that just in ROH?

Wasn't the Angle slam originally the Olympic Slam? Did they relocate the Clothesline from Hell to from New York? Yes, but they almost got sued by the Olympics for it. and No, despite people saying it should be renamed the Clothesline from Wall Street. I always thought it should have been called the Closing Bell. |

That was the Peace of Mind's name in NXT Did he call it that AS Tyler Black or was it a tongue-in-cheek name once he signed to NXT and became Seth Rollins? I've seen quite a few of his matches as Tyler Black and I don't remember him ever using it before NXT. |

I've seen quite a few of his matches as Tyler Black and I don't remember him ever using it before NXT. Far as I can remember he never used the name "Blackout" or the move prior to NXT. Think it was just a nod to his days as Tyler Black. |

I refuse to call it anything other then the LeBell Lock. It just sounds so much more legitimate and... well, not dumb.
Didn't they used to call Shows KO Punch the WMD as well?

Wasn't the Angle slam originally the Olympic Slam? They did. And to add onto this, they pretty much switched back and forth from Ankle Lock to Angle Lock like every other week during Kurt's WWE career. |

As recently as a few weeks ago, JBL still referred to his finisher as the Clothesline from Hell, so I don't think he ever changed it. |

When Booker was on commentary he called the Shamus 10 Beats thingy the "Irish Hand Grenade" he also called "Winds of Change" the "Big Bubba Rogers Slam" and every other bodyslam and suplex was "Sidewalk Slam." OF course none of this was official, because it was Booker.

Different moves. Stratusfaction is a springing bulldog: BoDog is more of a tornado bulldog and closer to an Acid Drop. |

Big Show's chokeslam was originally called the Showstopper, but now is just called a chokeslam. As others have said, his Knock-Out Punch used to be called the WMD. Showstopper was also a name Marty Jannetty used in WCW for his Rocker Dropper.
For a while, Undertaker's Dragon Sleeper was called Takin Care of Business. He has used it since then and it is just called a Dragon Sleeper.

I realized that, I just thought they were close enough for the reference to work. On the real though, those two moves are almost exactly the same. Minus one step off the middle rope. So, yeah. |

Kind of OT, but since people here have mentioned the Boss Man Slam, I always thought it should be called "Hard Time" to go with his theme song in the early 90's.
