Anyone know the reason behind calling it the F5? What does that mean or stand for?

It's a system used to designate tornado classes, F5 being the strongest type of tornado.

F6 is really, but all instruments break and no one really lives to tell about it, so for all intents and purposes, F5 is considered the strongest.

 

Kinda like the Category 6 hurricanes, which are immeasurable also.

I try to tell people that there is a such thing as an F6 tornado, but they never believe me. :huh:

F5, Whatever it's called, was being used by O'Haire last summer during the "Invasion."

I still call it the "Brockbuster", F the WWE for doubting me on that.

I've stated this before about Lesnar's move, but was a LONG time ago....

 

Many people called the move the TKO, which was used by Marc Mero. It has also been said that O'Haire used the move as well. Let me clarify:

 

All three start from the Fireman's Carry position. Mero spun the opponent into a Stunner/Ace Crusher/Diamondcutter type move. DDP had used this as one of his many variations of Diamondcutters in WCW before Mero had ever done it. Mero came back after knee surgery and could not use his Merosault as a finisher as much and needed a new one. He used this move and called it the TKO as he had a boxer gimmick going.

 

O'Haire used a mve that resembles a spinebuster from the Fireman's Carry. He had the opponents head on his right shoulder, pushed up with his right hand, and slammed the opponent back-first to his left side. I can only remember one point when O'Haire deviated from this and he picked Bradshaw up on the wrong side (head on his left shoulder). O'Haire still pushed up with his right hand, but the move was backwards, and resembled the F5 that Lesnar does.

 

Lesnar picks the opponent up with his head on his left shoulder, and spins them into a faceplanter. These are visually very similar, but very, very different.

If you want, sure. Wait, no. F6 is in relation to tornadoes, which the Hurricane obviously isn't.

Brockbuster is just a dumb pun/play on words. It's not like there haven't been enough of those in wrestling.

Guest What?!

F5 refreshes your browser. Well, it does.

 

Maybe he should call it Mr. Brocko just for my selfish reasons.

Do you think lengthening it to Fujita-5 would sound better? I always thought the Grinder was a cool name for a move, until I found out it's a regionalism for sub sandwich.
