Help Daniel Bryan Name His Finishing Move

[punk13]

- On Twitter last night, Daniel Bryan plugged a Bleacher Report interview he did about a month ago discussing what happened at Hell In a Cell, his relationship with Brie Bella, WWE 2K14 and more. In his tweet, Bryan mentioned fans helping him name his flying knee finisher. The options in the article are:

* The Yes Strike
* The Bearded Wizard
* Little-Big-Man Knee
* The Aberdeen Face Buster
* The Washington Wizard

All these names are terrible. Why not The Goat to Sleep?

Might aswell just call it The Yes Strike to go with The Yes Lock.

Cause the announcers saying "Bryan going for the GTS might be confusing"

Agree with The Yes Strike. It's simple and it fits his schtick. Personally, if it just remained the running knee, I wouldn't care.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

The Man's Man knee since he learned it from William Regal.

 

[Chris]

Bearded Wizard for the win

Those names are terrible, WWE creative teams never seem to come up with good names for finishers.

May as well call it "Vegetative State" because he is Vegan and it knocks you out.

Skull Crushing Finale is still one of the worst names i've ever heard.

 

[Killz]

Holy shit those are hands down the worst names.

It's like the "new PPV concept!" mailers and they want you to vote from "Fight for the Title!" and "Cage Match!" as PPV names.

They all suck - the Washington Wizard is the best but wouldn't resonate with the casual fans who don't care where people are from and it isn't short enough.

I was CONVINCED from the moment they said it it would last 8-10 weeks and they'd move to "THE SCF!" because a main event player having a move that could be abbreviated to a few letters makes commentary more impactful. Eventually we wouldn't have even remembered what it stood for. Don't know why they never capitalised on that.

 

[Deezy]

The \People's Elbow and Rock Bottom are not abbreviated and would sound stupid if it was.

 

[Dale]

Shawn Michaels just hit the SCM

 

[Killz]

The \People's Elbow and Rock Bottom are not abbreviated and would sound stupid if it was.

True. Who said they had to be?

The GTS and AA are abbreviated for the benefit of commentary etc. Skull Crushing Finale was so dumb sounding I figured it HAD to be abbreviated is all I was saying.

 

[Defiant]

"Yes Strike", "Yes Kick" and maybe "Goat Kick" are along the lines of what I'd name it. Something a bit straightforward or self-explanatory like that. These options are pretty bad though and I hope these aren't the only ones we're stuck with. Names like "Team Hell No" and "Skull Crushing Finale" may not jump out at me anymore but they aren't any less dumb so I hope Bryan gets luckier naming his move which is going to apparently get him over.

No one cares that he's from Washington and has so little to do with his identity. "Bearded Wizard" reminds me of my friend getting a tattoo of his girlfriend's name on his arm: awkward for Bryan if he ever decides one day to get rid of it.

He should just call it the Holy's Hit and they can play it like the crowd isn't cursing on live TV every week to maintain a PG advantage. :


Or, since they already took everything away from Chris Hero anyways, why not just call it the KO?
