Chris Jerichos New Move

[theoptimusman]

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS !??? AND OPINIONS ?!?!?!?

THE CODEBREAKER


"MY OPINION"

THE CODEBREAKER WILL NEVER BE BROKEN CAUSE NOONE GIVES A FLYING **** , THE MOVE IS SOFT......DOES NOT COME OFF WELL ON CAMERA AND IS JUST A SHOT TO AN ALREADY NOT SO UP TO PAR JERICHO......WHY NOT STAY WITH THE WALLS AND THE LION SAULT ?

K....LET THE DEBATE BEGIN......

 

[Pone]

Looks like Judas Mesias' Straight to Hell but i thinks it's pretty cool....also didn't Shelton Benjamin use this to finish Dreamer on his ECW debut...I agree he should stick wit the Walls of Jericho but I disagree with the fact that he's not up to par....being out of action for 2 years he looked better than most guys on the RAW Roster

 

[Sicko]

just an added move I don't think it means he will stop doing the other ones, I like the move it has more of an impact compaired to his other moves I think, it is more believable beating someone by knocking them out with your knees then it is flipping and landing on top of you, don't know if he did it as well as he wanted on Santino but it went over ok, I thought he looked good in the ring considering it has been 2 years?

Crowd was not involved much during the entire show, made the entire show seem kinda boring this week

but Y2J was entertaining as promised, great on the mic with Santino, I thought it was funny even though the crowd was not into it

 

[theoptimusman]

yeah that crowd was dead as hell......and also to the post above above..... i do think shelton did that same shit to finish dreamer......finishers are at an all time low of new creation.....i just think jericho is better than this.....but the whole package has let me down all in all.....

 

[Stampede]

actualy i think benjamin did like a spinning complete shot, at least thats what it looked like to me. and jerichos new move wasnt that bad IMO, it was fast, simple and sure looked like it would hurt, just what a finisher should be.

 

[tap-out]

I thought he looked fine in his return to the ring. Looked like he took it a little slow but what can u expect. I thought he and Santino work well together on the mic and really enjoyed that even the though the fans didn;t even know there was a wrestling show going on. On to hus finisher, i was expecting something a little more energetic and impressive. It looks similar to the gts(basically same concept), backstabber(except the facestabber). I would love to see him use the walls. I like how his tights and finisher stuck with the whole breaking the code. Then name of the new finisher is cool, i just thought the move could have been something different, but as someone already said, coming up with new finishers is like trying to bring someone back from the dead. I don't know if WWE has banned basically everything and is left with this crap, but times need to change when it comes to new moves.

i thought Y2J was doing pretty good for a while, he did better then orton did with flair...or how flair was with orton?.... either way Y2J's performance tonite was better then the main event...(as for bumps, and successful moves)
sp that's sayin alot about Y2j right there. The code breaker was pretty cool, i do like the idea of WWE goin in a more realistic direction with finishes, but that doesn't mean it should replace the walls or the lionsault. Impact was alright, i thought it came off alright on camera, Y2j just needs sometime to practice variations of the move and it will get better.

 

[sinner]

I think Jericho will only get better. He has been out of the ring for over 2 years. True, he did work in the ring a little before he came back, but working in front of a live crowd makes a difference. Give him time,and he'll be the Jericho of old again

 

[Luke-E]

I missed the ending to this match seeing as a storm killed my power so i didnt get to see the finisher. But yes Y2J did look slow BUT the guy has been away doe 2 years, do you really think he will be running round the ring like a paul london or reyrey.
For his first match back infront of a massive crowd there to see one person, ric flair, i thought he done great.
All is left now is for him to win the title off the biggest monkey f*cker in the WWE. Yes i don't like orton.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Somewhere Gregory Helms is very angry.

That move is not good. It doesn't look impactful enough. Then again Jerichos finishers have always been lame. The Lion Tamer wasn't impressive before it was a Boston Crab. The running Enziguri wasn't good and that moonsault thing, while it looked good, it didn't look devistating.

 

[jamesjd66]

The Code Breaker is a move that he could pull off at anytime. It's quick, requires minimal setup, and looks painful. Hopefully he'll figure out ways to pull it out at ridiculous times like when DDP's diamond cuttur would come out of nowhere. This is his best finisher to date. Like Jake said, the running enziguri sucked and the Lionsault never convinced me. He had also used "The Stroke" or something similar that never got off the ground. It looked too clumsy. I really wouldn't care to see the Walls of Jericho but I'd mark out for the Lion Tamer.

 

[a7xoff]

The Codebreaker is just another move that you can throw into Y2J's ultimate finisher move list. Like Jake said Y2J does not really have all that impressive finishers. However the codebreaker kind of reminds me of the RKO, or Backstabber in that it can virtually come at anytime. That adds a little bit of anticipation during heated Y2J matches with fans wondering when the codebreaker will come out of nowhere. I think it's a good finisher for Jericho, but I do hope he still intends to use the Walls Of Jericho as well.

 

[Eternal Dragon]

Am I the only one that thought the "Code Breaker" (I guess that's the new name) was pretty impactful? Maybe it's because it made a big bang... okay that isn't the strongest arguement out there. I thought the quickness of it and the way that Jericho carried made the move work, and I like the symbolism behind the move. It's not big and flashy, but there's nothing wrong with it either.

If no one else noticed The Codebreaker is the same move Stevie Richards used to use mid match against Kevin Thorn during their rivalry. I would normally go one to prove this with a picture or video from that time, but sadly there are none.

So I hope you have a pretty good memory for wrestling, cause if you do you should know what I'm taking about.

 

[Gus]

i liked it, it reminded me of Judas Messias (and my friend Joes) finisher, i thought it was pretty cool, nice and fast, and how can you not say it wouldnt be impactful, imagine falling and smashing your head into someones knees, tell me how that would not hurt...

 

[jback]

I both liked the move and thought it looked pretty impactful, yet I think Jericho is better than the move. I think he should use the move before he puts his oponent in the walls of jericho, imo. But i think it would definately hurt to get someones knees in your face.

 

[AnthonyMango/NoFate007]

I don't think Jericho should use this as his finisher, but just his set-up move. Codebreaker to get the guy on the mat, then finish him with the Walls.

Still, though, Jericho's new attire looks great. Simple yet flashy, as opposed to say, Cody Rhodes/Snitsky/etc who just have plain black gear on.

 

[spuddy83]

I thought the move was quite sloppy never really sold the double knee only seemed to connect with one. Overall a good performance and he didn't look rusty anywhere else. Overall a good match and great show audience were absolutely unenthusiastic for a better show than in recent weeks.

 

[Derf]

I liked the move itself, but I don't like how all the new moves all look so much like the same thing. Backstabber, Elijah Express, and appearently Stevie, Mesias, and Shelton have all used the same thing in recent weeks. I hope he's only using that as a temporary thing, it's been said someplace he's got alot of new moves, hopefully he'll use somthing dirrerenter.

 

[Mad Metal]

IMHO the Codebreaker is much better than the Walls Of Jericho. Why is that? The Walls Of Jericho was a modified Boston Crab that looked 3 times less painful seeing Jericho wouldn't stretch the legs backwards as far as you would with a typical Boston Crab.

The Code Breaker doesn't sound completely creative but it beats the Walls Of Jericho which was not creative or gave the impression that it was creative compare to a typical move that you would see absolutely anyone would break out of. But like said, Jericho isn't very creative when it comes to a finisher, despite the fact I'm a huge Jericho fan.

A lot of times a wrestler has trademarks of their finisher. Stone Cold is VERY well known for his stunner (even though I always thought the move was cheap/modified neck breaker). Triple H was always known for his Pedigree which was/is creative. The Tombstone was/is a modified piledriver but the move looks to be so effective to the point it fit in perfectly with The Undertaker. Chris Benoit's crippler crossface was a very effective move (trust me, many people in the past put me in the move and without hesitation I tapped out within seconds) but wasn't invented by the man. To make things worse, Hulk Hogan's move is an ordinary leg drop. If you want to see a leg drop 5 times better that looks 7 times more effective but his opponents always kicks out of, try The Undertaker's leg drops.

My point is not every move would be considered as completely "creative" while a small percentage are the complete opposite. No more explanation needed.

 

[Hardinhoff]

I think a finisher should be something that makes you think "OUCH"...the Code Breaker (although quasi-botched) still gives me the idea that if someone ran up to you and pulled your face down into both knees or one for that matter, it's going to hurt like hell. It's quick and as probably stated before it can be set up from anywhere. I do hope he does still use the Walls as well though...

 

[Teekay]

IMO I really like the new move "Codebreaker" I think its unexpecting; So In big match ups wham bam thank you mam he is going to hit it and suprise us; I mean think about it; Almost like the RKO or Superkick I do like the move but still would like to see Walls of Jericho or the Lionsault..

 

[Skullz Crack'Em]

It is a good move because it actually looks like it will hurt. It is fast and unexpecting, so it can be pulled off at any moment in a match against any size wrestler, big or small. It is also a fairly unseen move, so I am just glad Jericho didn't take an already popular move like the spear that we have already seen thousands of times before.

 

[jeazie]

I think it's a fairly impactful move and has no set up time unlike let's say Kennedy. Everybody wants to sit around and watch a move take twenty minutes to set up because it looks flashy but let me cram my knees in your face and see how much I suck then. Get off it.

 

[A.J.]

Its a decent move for Jericho, but lets face facts that submission wrestling is not the way that WWE does things anymore especially after the Benoit thing. Punk no longer uses the anaconda vice and now uses the GTS. So Jericho using the code breaker is a nice way to win a match. It looks impact full and can surprise his opponent with it. Anyways it looks lot better than the Stroke that he was using before as well. Plus its a move that you need to be agile for and that fits Jericho.
