I hate the name 'sweet chin music'
It doesn't sound the least bit intimidating (not quite the word I want, but I hope you get what I mean, it doesn't soundlike a wrestling move)
but my biggest gripe with it is that it is very difficult to put in the past tence.
Austin stunnered that guy, then taker tombstoned him, then HBK........sweet chin musiced him?
I know it's stupid and you could just say 'hit him with sweet chin music', but it pisses me off god damn it!!!!

Why can't people just use the move's real name. Because it'd get bland and repetitive? Does football get bland and repetitive just because every quarterback doesn't have his on names for the same passes? Of coarse not. If the wrestlers would use the real names for the moves they would have more credibility. Look at the stars of the past: Ric Flair, Buddy Rogers, Greg Valentine -- Figure Four Leglock Bruno Sammartino, Big John Studd -- Bearhug Stan Hansen -- Lariat HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN, Yokozuna -- Legdrop Billy Jack Haynes, Ken Patera -- Full Nelson Rick Martel -- Boston Crab Jumpin' Jim Brunzell, Rock 'N' Roll Express -- Drop Kick Dynamite Kid, Barbarian -- Flying Headbutt Randy Savage -- Flying Elbow Paul Orndorf, Jerry Lawler, Harley Race -- Piledriver Warlord, Davey Boy Smith -- Powerslam Hercules Hernandez -- Horizontal Backbreaker Verne Gagne, Roddy Piper -- Sleeper Hold Bob Orton Jr. -- Superplex Funks (Terry, Dory Sr., Dory Jr.) -- Spinning Toe Hold I could go on and on. Did these guys get boring because they called their moves by the proper name? No. In fact they are more respected then the jokes of today. |

The dance that Flair does before the figure four(or his strutting) : The Nature Walk I just spit soda all over my computer! That's a winner there! Although I think they'd get fired in less than 1 episode, the guys in the booth should start making up names like this. At least it'd stay interesting. |

Yeah, but it's an effort to elevate the product past just being wrestling (as Vince has the worst time dealing with the fact that his business is wrestling) and make things more "fantastic". |

Yeah, but it's an effort to elevate the product past just being wrestling (as Vince has the worst time dealing with the fact that his business is wrestling) and make things more "fantastic". But the business is pro wrestling. We as fans should be remembering that, not helping Vince McMahon turn it into sports entertainment. Professional wrestling is what the people come to see. There is now less of that then ever. McMahon even restricts the words that can be used to describe it. Wrestlers are no longer allowed to use words like "belt", "strap" or "gold" when talking about a title. And slowly but surely the words "professional wrestling" itself is being phased out. It makes me sick to see guys like Edge calling themselves "greatest sports entertainer in the world". |
