It's quick. It's easy to do. It looks just as effective as an RKO. I'm fine with it. Then again, I was subjected to leg drops and neckbreakers as finishers when I was younger, so perhaps my standards are low. Dude, the Rude Awakening owned!

That's probably my favorite version of the neckbreaker. Perhaps he was referring to the honky tonk man's shake rattle & roll. ;D Back on topic...... I'm confused though in the match it looked like he used both knees but in the replay it showed him using only one. Two is definately better than one.

The name sounds like it's Cody Rhodes's finisher. It doesn't sound anything like 'roll-up'!

I like it. He has a drawn out finisher in the Walls, and an out-of-the-blue quick finisher in the Codebreaker to get the sudden pops.

I like it. Unlike a lot of finishers (yes, John Cena, I'm looking in your direction) You can't see him.

I like it. It can be done at any time. It's a quick and easy move. It reminds me of the Stone Cold Stunner in that regard, in that it looks like it hurts like hell.

I liked it. It looked really good. But he should bring back the Walls and step enziguri to compliment it.

I could grow to like it i suppose. But my initial reaction was "thats not his new finisher... is it?" Same reaction here. After hearing Jericho came up with a new finisher, I was expecting something more. I guess it still has that Carlito smell to it. That's not cool!

He should his step enzugiri (sp) again, that was a good move. I didn't catch him using the Codebreaker, but it will undoubtedly be on wwe.com soon enough. I agree, the enzuguri would be a good choice, as would a Shining Wizard, but this is a fine alternative for a high impact move. It also seems like a lot of wrestlers are using knee to body part moves now. Punk has the GTS, Noble's been using the double knee gut crusher, and Carlito's been using the Backstabber forever. Seems like an interesting trend, probably because it's easier for an opponent to sell.

Is Triple H's new finisher going to be called the Game Genie?
If he has a baby with Shark Boy will it be Game Shark?
Will the "smackdown rewind" be replaced with "Pro Action Replay"?

It's not as good as Outback Jack's "boomerang."

I liked it. I felt it added more depth to his moveset, and would make for more interesting conclusions to matches. He now has a high-flying finisher off the ropes, a quick finisher that can come out of the blue, and a submission hold.

I liked it...it's quick and can come out of nowhere...however it kinda makes CM Punk's Go To Sleep look bad since he only uses 1 knee

It was AWESOME! Short and sweet, a kick-ass GTS-style finisher. LOVE THE NAME TOO!

As far as Jericho's knockout finishers, that looked FAR nastier than the lame-assed Breakdown. He'll probably use that to compliment the Walls Of Jericho.

Upon further consideration, I've decided that, setting aside the name, it looks at least as painful as the much-vaunted Stunner. So I'm OK with it.

Eh. I have no problem with the move, but when he said I'm going to debut a new move I really thought it was going to be something that I hadn't seen before so it was a bit of a letdown.

I approve. It's a move that can be done outta nowhere, it's safe, and looks like it hurts.

I didn't see Raw, but read the recap and WWE.com described it as a modified jawbreaker. He actually uses a reverse Lungblower as his finisher, though? (I tend to refer to it as a Chestburster/Chestbuster). Awesome, I love that move. It's overused on the indies a bit, but 'm glad somebody's using it in WWE. Provided he keeps the Walls as well, this is great.
Oh, and I love Jericho's new tights.
