If this has been discussed in the thread discussing the four New Japan stars who've signed or who are believed to be signing soon with WWE, it wasn't my intention to poach someone else's posts. There's simply too many to read through in the thread.
In all the excitement surrounding AJ Styles signing with WWE, one thing that came to mind this morning was the controversy surrounding Styles' finisher, the Styles Clash. In spite of Style's acclaim inside the ring, it's important to remember that he's broken the necks of two men in New Japan while performing the move and it's lead to a great deal of controversy among wrestling fans as to whether or not New Japan should've banned the move, which they didn't. I get and agree that it wasn't entirely Styles' fault, as the other wrestlers didn't position their heads properly, but, at the same time, Styles was the one giving the maneuver. Given WWE's attention and concern regarding trauma to the neck and/or head, it goes without saying that the move will almost certainly be banned in WWE. While this won't hinder Styles' to any real degree inside the ring, I figured I'd address it as I think it'd be a matter of time before posts started popping up criticizing WWE for not allowing Styles to use the move; I figured a little reminder was necessary as to why the move shouldn't be used.
What do you think Styles will adopt or what do you hope he'll adopt in terms of a primary finisher in WWE?
