That finish can suck it. Off the top rope, off the apron, off the ladder, IT LOOKS STUPID OFF A HEIGHT, JARRETT. STOP IT.

The finisher has been garbage forever. I will always fondly remember it as one of Jericho rotating finishers.

I'm a Miz fan, but it says a lot when he does a move significantly better than you do.

Isn't The Stroke what Dean Ambrose's Dirty Deeds used to be? What an awkward move.

The Elevated Stroke sounds like slang for masturbating on an airplane.

I think you can remove the word Elevated from this thread title

But it is my understanding that because of America's obesity issues, Elevated Stroke is one of our biggest killers.

I thought The Stroke involved you putting your right hand out, giving a firm handshake, talking to me about that one big break, spreading your ear pollution far and wide and keeping your contributions by your side!

I think you can remove the word Elevated from this thread title This. At least with the Breakdown/Skull Crushing Finale, they have the excuse of being in a full nelson and it'd be difficult to resist, the Stroke, you could elbow him in the face, or hell, HIT HIM WITH YOUR OTHER HAND YOU IDIOTS!

Once upon a time I watched a backyard wrestling federation on Public Access. One guy did what is now The Stroke, but he called it "Hooker With a Penis".
And yes. It sucked when he did it too.

I believe it was originally named the stroke as an inside joke because he had "stroke" with people in the back ... get it? he had stroke, influence, with people in the back. He won with the stroke ... YOU JUST DON'T GET IT!
He should rename the move, "The Shares he holds in this f***ed up company mean he can still come in and win in the main event despite being out of the company for three years."
Imagine Don West calling it.

Well, to be fair, Jarrett heard it took no rhythm or style and thought that it could be a winner but he doesn't do the move well. He should put his left foot out.

He won with the stroke ... YOU JUST DON'T GET IT! Yup, I genuinely was that if I remember right. When he came back to WCW in late 1999, that's when he started using it and called it that. I think it was involved with the Bagwell stuff, where Bagwell was refusing to obey the wishes of the Russo and not do jobs and... ...Christ, late era WCW, man. And yeah, it's a lousy finisher. No wonder Jarrett resorted to the guitar shot so much.
