Angle Slam

Recommended Posts

Guest BDC

Half the people he faced before he ripped off Shamrock's anklelock.

 

Seriously, it's one of the worst finishes I've had the pleasure of seeing. I dont' say worse because things like the heart punch exist.

Asking who kicked out of the Angle slam is almost as funny as....

 

Triple H said the following regarding why he formed Evolution during a recent radio appearance:

 

"There were a lot of young guys who were not catching a break, it is tough to catch a break with the fans, so I thought I would help them out."

Today's your lucky day, Shooting Star. Because MrZsasz has decided to grace your thread with his presence:

 

The Angle Slam is the most commonly kicked out of finisher (not used by Jericho) amongst the Main Eventers in the WWE. They decided to use the face kicking out of it as a suspense pincover in every match in 2000 and 2001 and it hurt the move's cred.

Lot of young guys = Orton and Batista.

I think it's now safe to say the Angle Slam=the Lionsault. Sure, they get the win after cheating/interference and against lower card guys, but everyone and their mom knows that it's not going to finish a big match.

Cruiserweights kill the power bomb as a finisher.

If they're doing powerbombs to each other I don't see how they're ruining it. It's just lighter people doing it to lighter people.

 

Now if a cruiserweight kicked out of a big man's powerbomb then I'd say you're right.

Billy Kidman is to blame for it.

I don't go out to the streetcorner you work at and harass you, man.

Yeah, well I hope you admire my restraint in reference to your tacky and ridiculous organ grinder.

I think it's time Angle got a new finish, personally. Although, honestly, there are only three finishes in WWE that are still pretty protected: Pedigree, Tombstone, and Stunner.

 

I'd like to see Angle do some sort of Blood Rush (see "Wrestling Moves discussion" post in the General Wrestling folder for description, 5th post up from the bottom), as it'd be fairly easy to hit on people of equal size, as well as a little bigger. And for the hosses? AnkleLock works fine.

 

Can anybody think of a great finish these days, indy or puro or otherwise, that doesn't involve a head-drop? Aside from a few cool flying moves, and maybe a great submission here and there, nothing really comes to mind.

What in the hell is this all aboot? Anywho, on the case of the Angle Slam, it's too bad they ruined it, it was one of the better newer finishers.
