I personally like the CradleShock and my favorite would have to be Kevin Nash's 840 from the first turnbuckle. LOL

Here's the Cattle Mutilation.

The Burning Lariat appears in this video at about the 1 minute and again at the 1 minute and 20 second mark... Its really just a Clothesline From Hell and it looks better when he does it against smaller opponents. You can also see the Burning Hammer at 2 minutes and 20 seconds into the vid.

When WWE made the decision to run a live Smackdown show on Tuesday, Aug. 30, it was widely reported that executives wanted to test the ratings waters to see if a future full time move would be a possibility. The biggest hurdle, of course, is SyFy, who has to agree to dump a ratings winner on its Friday night line-up.
In a recent interview with The Miami Herald, Triple H says it's possible we'll see more of the same down the road ... and SyFy is on board.
"I'm sure if you ask Syfy, they would say, ‘Yes.' I think that's certainly on the board. The beautiful thing about WWE is we truly are a fluid product, because we're live, and we can do it from just about anywhere. We can moves things around and switch things around, and it's what makes us such a valuable partner to people and networks like USA and Syfy. If USA or somebody needs a number to help them get over the hump in the ratings war, we can do a special and put them over the top. We can do a Tuesday live show and give somebody a kick. We can do all these different things, and that's a very valuable commodity. I'm sure they're looking, as well as everybody else is looking, to use that commodity in the best possible way they can."

Don't think a move as much as the show just being live would probably help things out more. Seems like way more people where interested with the live show. Although Tuesday might be the best choice, would of the option for more talent to be available with it being the day after Raw.

Live would be nice, but it doesn't really matter to me if it was live. I would rather it be on any other weekday just not on fridays.

I thought WWE doesn't want it to go live because of the costs and what not? I never understood why the moved to Friday nights anyway, just seems to be the night where more people are likely to be out socialising.

I think SmackDown moving Live on Tuesday wouldn't be too bad of an idea. Obviously it gets more ratings live. And we all love live wrestling I'm sure, so go for the win SmackDown!
