The Little Things That Make a Big Difference In the Ring

[BreakTheWalls]

Are there any little things that wrestlers do inside the squared circle that you find particularly effective or entertaining?

For example, the way Tyson Kidd always shouts "I'm gonna break his [insert body part]!" - I love that. That tiny detail, imo, makes a really big difference. It showcases the ruthlessness of his character, and makes whatever submission he's using seem that much more threatening.

How about the way Maryse always smiles and flips her hair around when she has a submission locked in? It's great. She'll even take an opportunity to remind everyone how beautiful she is from time to time. Ideally, casuals are watching and saying, "I can't stand her! She's so full of herself!" That small choice she makes makes her that much more hatable.

Dolph Ziggler continuing to say who he is while beating down an opponent is awesome, too. He's another one who always puts that extra energy into all of his moves, and it's really effective imo.

Anyone have anything they notice that others might not?

Well in ways you can be right but I think that the charismatic acts are just ways to make them seem cocky,( as a heel) but on the flip side a face spends most of his time in the match selling bumps , that is what makes some matches great. Take a look at John Cena for instance he plays the hero in all most all of his matches and despite what people say that he only has like five moves if that's all it takes well good for him .

Also I think the facial expressions & body language of the wrestlers play a huge part in the a match a good sell. How would you like if orton did not get that evil grin on his face when he went to punt some one ? It would make that move look stupid right .

i like it when the undertaker always chase the refs...the funniest one was during the taker v orton match at summerslam 2005.

i don't know if this goes here but what about when wrestler X does a move to wrestler Y, something goes wrong and Y has to sell it really bad.last year during that triple threat match for the WHC at unforgiven between batista, rey and khali, the way khali sold the 619 that hit his chest was hilarious.

santino's facial expressions always makes me laugh when raw is doing horrible

what about J.R.'s lines? or jerry lawler's lame side comments..they are lame, but they are funny as hell

there are definitely more but i can't think of any at the moment
