I admit that one of the weird things that fascinates me about wrestling are the moves; the notion that by doing certain attacks, feasible physically only in the world of professional wrestling, you weaken a kind of invisible life bar only barely affected by most kicks and punches. I think it's what helps me separate it from stuff like UFC, which I find boring and too "macho."
The only videogames I've ever played were WWE games, and that of course opened me up to the fact that there are like a bajillion variations of every move, and it's the games that have led me to mutteringly call matches more efficiently than Michael Cole.
I'd love if certain people had a few more moves; who would you like to see do what?
For instance: I really wish Cena had a spinebuster, Dolph Ziggler had a move called The Photo Finish I saw at an indie show, and CM Punk had a trademark DDT, and Daniel Bryan had a cutter.

The only videogames I've ever played were WWE games... That's kinda like saying "The only movies I watch are from WWE studios". On topic I'd love to see Orton perform a regular (not inverted) backbreaker on smaller opponents.

Punk should bring the Devil Lock DDT and Pepsi Twist back for when he has to face larger opponents. Mainly the Devillock, because I've wanted that in a WWE game for years!

On topic I'd love to see Orton perform a regular (not inverted) backbreaker on smaller opponents. I just don't have much interest in them otherwise. Always felt kind of weird about it since I enjoy comics and wrestling, I feel like I'm missing part of the trifecta, or like I'm supposed to also like anime or something. But then again I don't dress to "geek" stuff really, and beyond reading comics and watching wrestling they aren't huge parts of my life... But I loooove Create A Wrestler. I will kill three hours on that stupid thing without ever playing a match.

I like to think of tag team moves myself. Like Cody and Dust should use Goldust's uppercut into a Russian Legsweep by Cody

I think, less superkicks, kickout punches and spears. I feel like those have been over done in recent years. Also, I find suspension of disbelief a bit tough. Why is that kick any more special than the normal kick another guy did five minutes ago? At least with "moves" you can suspend it a bit.
I remember the Vertebreaker (Helms and one of the Divas did it) was kind of neat. It would be good for someone who could pull it off quickly. The biggest problem with Christian's finisher is that it takes him too damn long to set it up.
If they wanted something like a spear they could have it take a leg out at the knee and that turns it into a rollup or a submission.
Suplexes are often great for combining speed, technical acumen and power.
Also, some of the smaller guys could do more elaborate moves like (can't remember if there's a name for this) A runs at B, looks like he's going for a clothesline but instead swings around and turns the move into a DDT.
Really for those with four or five moves that they hit every match it would be nice if they rotate one our for a new one every six months or so to hold off staleness.
Also, create a wrestler has a fantastic database of moves. If I were a wrestler I might just go through all the moves there for ideas.

It is about time Miz passed down the Figure Four to a young upstart.

I'd like to give everyone a pair of Whatamaneuvers. I miss those.

Punk should really bring back the Pepsi Twist. It's safe and can be done on just about anyone. Last time I remember him using it was against Morrison.

Rollins needs to bring back Gods Last Gift/Pheonix Splash when the Shield breaks up, especially if he is a face, they are just great/safe finishers

I'm still waiting for the day Bryan uses the cattle mutilation regularly. It's not like he's facing Big Show every match so I don't get the size arguments.

Everyone needs more moves. It just seems to me that each guy has punches and kicks and then 3 to 5 moves(at most) that they do every match with no variety. Maybe I am wrong,but it just seems like there could be more bodyslams,suplexes,backbreakers,or whatever in matches.

I kind of feel like some moves are now so "basic" that EVERYONE on the roster should use them (Vertical Suplex, DDT, Boston Crab or Half-Crab) without exception
What I'd like to see used more, probably by Miz since he's the one with the Figure 4 right now, is the KneeDT. Kenny's old move where he'd grab your leg at the knee and snap down in a DDT motion.
I'd like to see someone use the Wheelbarrow Suplex that Chris Masters was using for a while, too.

I'd love to see Cattle Mutilation. Especially if the Dragonplex is brought back.
UFO would be great to see too.
