I actually miss him. -I think he would of work well as World Champion during his first run, but his matches with Jeff Hardy for the IC Title were really still the days when the IC Title meant something. -And for a guy his size, he was fast pace!

Yeah he was. I thought it was a stupid gimmick at first but he totally made it work. I miss him.

The spike was an awful finisher though.

The spike was an awful finisher though. I agree when you think about it, but it's like how Cesaro(though getting dizzy hurts) makes the big swing a big deal. I actually miss the days of not being a smark and really hating the bad guys but you know they're doing their jobs. Just like Jericho's 08 run, that was awesome.

The spike was an awful finisher though. Wasn't it a thumb to the throat? Seems pretty effective to me.

Could it actually mess someone up IRL? Most likely. To be honest, moves like the thumb to the throat and the KO Punch ect, while not visually exciting, are way more realistic finishing moves then the likes of a canadian destroyer in my opinion. A seven foot tall giant punching you out and a powerful samoan ramming his thumb into you would certainly be fight ending moves in reality. I loved Umaga, the guy was really talented. Very sad he is no longer with us.
