It was especially awkward Sunday when hit Del Rio and Rusev right in a row and had to stop, reset and do the superman jump motion is succession. Like Paul Phoenix, he has to charge up his special punch. Not to go too off topic, every time I was Paul I was that guy |

Used to charge back for the Phoenix punch and run over my foe before that could stand up. And repeated it until I won. If I felt like, I did a full charge and finished them off with one punch. |

I want him to go full Young Bucks mode on people and start having a superman punch party.
Will become a Michael Cole fan if he does the ROH announcing call and yell out "Supermaaaaaaaan Puuuuuuunch"

Like Paul Phoenix, he has to charge up his special punch. Paul Phoenix went way deeper than Roman in terms of moveset. They should sign him to a developmental. Tekken doesn't really use him anymore. |

I started a thread praising the Superman punch back when Shield was still a thing.
I'm all for em.

Reigns's moves are in character, at least. He hits hard, looks cool, and keeps it moving. Nothing fancy, nothing sadistic. f*** Ambrose's Double Arm DDT, though. That move was played out as a finisher 15 years ago, and what is a guy like him doing using a DDT? Isn't he supposed to be CA-RAAAAAZY? If more than like two people on the roster knew how to bump for the Headlock Driver I imagine Dean would still be using that. Isn't the bump pretty much the same? I want him to go full Young Bucks mode on people and start having a superman punch party. Will become a Michael Cole fan if he does the ROH announcing call and yell out "Supermaaaaaaaan Puuuuuuunch" I predict that the "Full Young Bucks mode" thing will happen, but not with Reigns, but by some younger wrestlers who decide to co-opt/swagger-jack the Superman Punch for themselves until it becomes their "thing". |

Isn't the bump pretty much the same? The Headlock Driver is supposed to be a head-bump, hence the "driver" in the name. Like so:  Unfortunately Kofi was one of the only guys who took the move right. Most guys took the move as a face-bump which made it look like little more than a modified bulldog. |

Superman punch, Drive By (that's the official name now, right?), spear, power bomb. All good. But hearing Cole shout "Superman punch!" Five times a night really takes the appeal off the move. It should be "oh man, I hope he hits the Superman punch" not "how many of these is he going to do?" |

It's no different from Austin hitting Stunners on everyone in sight. I don't mind it. I was going to make the same point. |

yeah he needs to mix in a "Martian Manhunter punch" a "Shazam/Captain Marvel Punch" or even an "Aquaman punch" but only if he gets caught during HHH's water spitting pre match entrance thing. and when he turns heel it becomes a "Doomsday punch"

I don't mind him using them a lot. I mind Cole creaming his boxers every time Roman does, "SUPERMAN PUNCHHHHHH!" He should change it up to BURNING KNUCKLE!! Or Justice Fist!! (points to whoever get those references) |

(points to whoever get those references) You know, when SportsEntertainmentMania rolls around, he could just go out and be all "BASTAHHH WUHLF!~" since he is the Big Dawg and everything. And Allen Snider was lame. |

Other than that maybe give Ambrose back the Knee trembler? |

"Enough with the Stone Cold Stunner"
Roman is slowly catching fire, the move is part of that act. Lets not start cutting things off at the root yet before we've given things time to possibly reach thier full potential. If they had taken the Stunner away from Austin at this point it could have potentially killed his rising act dead in the water no matter how good the rest of his act was which was infinately better than Reigns. Lets not do that to someone who is struggling as it is.
