Yeah, that sells it well and makes it look real impressive. But I stand by my previous statement that Benoit's multi german's sucked.

They weren't that bad until it became an every match staple.

I just liked suplexes in indies where they actually look like they hurt the guy

Suplexes are what made me love prowrestling. Watching the early Steiners, man they flung people like rag dolls all over the place. They looked like the killed damn near everyone they had matches with.

I don't think wrestling would've become this great if it weren't for suplexes, way back in the greco/folkstyle days

I agree, DDT's are used all the time, but rarely are they executed and sold in a way like Jake's were. Usually guys roll through with the DDT to absorb the blow. Back when Jake was doing them, the guy would be planted into the mat head first and appear knocked out. Triple H's pedigree has evolved like that too. Guys used to go down face first with their arms clearly locked up. Now they get to pad their falls and IMO isn't nearly as appealing.

Can someone answer me a few questions. How the hell is Floyd Mayweather worth millions of dollars to the WWE? He won't bring in sales worthy of his appearance. Also, I heard Undertaker and his wife, Sara, aren't together anymore. What's he done with the tattoo across his throat?

Because Vince McMahon is senile and a sucker. He was the guy who held a contest to give $1 million to a wrestler off the street.
