Ah. How much impact it his is up to the person taking the move. It's not Cena's fault if the roster isn't making his moves look impactful enough.

It's not Cena's fault if the roster isn't making his moves look impactful enough. ....uh, yeah, you're right on....it's everyone's fault they land on their back like a scoop slam from a weak looking move. From now on, everyone on the WWE roster needs to land from the FU as if they were taking the Vertabreaker. You're a Cena fan. Fine. The move still sucks. I'm not talking about how it's sold. Curt Hennig or Stevie Richards could sell a hiptoss like it was molten death if they wanted to. The move simply looks weak.

I'm not a Cena fan. I despite Cena's run at the top, but the whole 'the move is weak' thing is just something that annoys the crap out of me when half of the roster wins matches with pump handle slams and pokes in the neck and moves which in kayfabe at least would have no less impact than the FU. Cena could certainly deliver it in a more impactful way - the one at the 2004 RR was pretty good - but I think it's just clutching at straws as far as reasons for not liking Cena. And I have plenty of reasons not to like Cena, such as his rapping always sucked and should never have been done by a babyface.

And I have plenty of reasons not to like Cena, such as his rapping always sucked and should never have been done by a babyface. Samoan Spike = Terrible finisher, but at least he gets some speed on it. It probably would hurt, but the notion that it "knocks you out" is horrible. Pumplehande = Again, terrible choice for a finisher,it's been done by everyone from Test to Road Dogg, but at least Snitsky gets some velocity off of it, and you get slammed down at a decent rate of speed. The FU just looks lazy and soft, like you're being dropped instead of slammed. Especially given the two moves it resembles most, the fireman's carry and bodyslam, are very weak damage transitional moves. I've got PLENTY of reasons not to like Cena, so I've no need to grasp at any straws. Even when I was a fan of his (His heel run, I started to fade on him after he beat Big Show at WM 20) I despised the move. It only existed to be a dig at Brock Lesnar, which was dumb from the start. Don't rip off someone's finisher with an inferior version of said finisher. I've barely watched any current wrestling in 6 months but I could still name about 20 finishers being done in today's WWE that look more deadly than the FU.

SWEET. CHIN. MUSIC.
The Pedigree- the HHH just hoists his opponent's arms and
drops you face first.

If Cena hit the FU like this there wouldn't be a debate: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJzgWVq86a8

Everything that Taz did in ECW looked like it was going to break a neck.
Every move that Sabu took looked like it would break his neck, which could be right he broke it what three times.

The only move I regularly cringe at anymore for some reason is when Ric Flair takes a back body drop. I don't know what it is, but every time he takes one, it looks like his hip could possibly shatter or even worse. That bothers me, too. I always think he's going to land on his arm and break it, but I guess he's been doing it that way for many years. the reason for that is because flair had a metal plate inserted in his back in 1975 after the infamous plane crash which almost ended his career.

The move where Snitsky put a chair around Kane's throat and jumped off the turnbuckle to land a boot on it had a shocking blood bursting effect from the mouth eventhough it is fake.

The only reason I buy it is because it's the final nail in the coffin. In reality, it probably wouldn't put you away. But after an Umaga beatdown, I'd buy it as a match ender.

Kane's flying clothesline. The way he lands I always freak out waiting for his ankles to snap like twigs.

I always used to freak out when Carlito used to do the springboard senton bomb/lionsault combo, just because of what happened to Hayabusa.

A backdrop from the top turnbuckle where the receiver practically lands on his head could be disasterous if something goes wrong.

Any Flair bump. It seems that over the years he has started to turn more and more to his side (I know he's always turned some because of his back injury). I keep thinking he'll land and his shoulder or hip is going to shatter.
The Green Bay Plunge. One little slip and both could be seriously hurt. I know most moves are like that but, this one really makes it stick out to me.
The Undertaker's lifting armbar thing. Having had bad shoulder problems over the years, it just looks like it should be breaking or separating shoulders.
