Do you think Rusev should change his finisher?

[DC 536]

I just think it's the fact that Rusev doesn't apply it with much conviction

But it's not a fact. I feel that he applies it with the appearance of a lot of pressure, when added to the part where he doesn't let go straight away means the hold is being pushed as a dangerous thing to be caught in.

[Guest FreeSpirit]

Yeah agree with DC. I love the fact that he doesn't release the hold until Lana tells him to. The superstars in the hold sell it really well as well. I think this submission move is perfect for him!!

[Guest Ciaran The King]

It's all personal opinion, but maybe it's the opponent who doesn't sell the move enough

[Guest FreeSpirit]

I'm getting to the stage though where he needs some half decent competition or someone who's closer to his size. Have him destroy Khali or Henry etc or put him in a feud with Show or otherwise this gimmick will become stale in no time!!

[Guest Ciaran The King]

He definitely needs more personality when in the ring, the guy is boring

[Guest fattyfudge]

Surely that's the point of a finisher; for it to be the one move that when you hit / apply it, the match is done.

 

I find this a strange complaint.

 

That is very true, i just think his matches are boring for me personally because his opponents never really mount an offensive... he batters them around a few times then just slaps on the accolade, where they tap out almost immediately.

 

I think he has a lot of potential with his style as his quite agile as well as being a big geezer, and hell, i'd watch Lana walking back and forth on that stage aaaall day

You do know what a squash match is?

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Umaga had the same MO as Rusev and succeeded from the get go so why WWE or Rusev can't do this is beyond me

[Guest fattyfudge]

Yeah i know, but its just boring at the moment, and the only thing they're putting over is Lana's ass

That's the point of his matches though, his opponents shouldn't be getting offence in because he's a huge dude. Still, I recall Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and R-Truth getting some offence in...Rusev....The Black Destroyer.

hey, i ain't complaining... if you search CJ Perry you can find some interesting pics... just sayin (NSFW)

[Guest Iceman000]

Lana is hot as hell! Back to the topic, maybe a running powerslam will rock the whole arena!!!

haha you're right there.. i hope they make this thing with Big E a proper feud though, it would be good to see those two brutes go toe to toe!

Ever been in a camel clutch? You can't help but sell the hell out of it. It's on of those moves where the opponent shouldn't tap, the should verbally say I quit. Same with Paige's silly little submission.
