Breetai posted:Don't ask me why but there is something really loving satisfying about watching a nice German suplex. It's not necessarily as devastating looking as other more fancy suplexes like a tiger or dragon suplex, but a well executed German or any of its innumerable variants just kicks rear end.

Captain Foo posted:What is the coolest class of power moves and why is it sit out powerbombs Every now and again, when he was in the mood to give a poo poo, Batista could make a Batista Bomb look absolutely devastating. I think it was in the WrestleMania match against Undertaker that he made it look like he had just crushed Undertaker's soul out of his body.

Forearms are really good in person but it doesn't translate to TV so well. Sugiura has really good ones that have a deep thunk that vibrates around the place.

A while back I saw on Twitter a quote from Mox's book that was simply, "gently caress Mike Quackenbush." I'll get around to reading the book (or listening to the audio book) eventually, but what's the context?

It’s just mentioned as a throwaway event where he yelled it drunkenly at a TV when someone put a Chikara DVD on during some CZW-era drink and drug binge, he doesn’t go into any detail.
