10 Awesome Wrestling Moves WWE Must Bring Back

5. The Dragon Suplex

The Dragon Suplex is another move that has only been witness a handful of times in WWE. Chris Benoit and Daniel Bryan are the two most notable practitioners of the move, with William Regal usually on the receiving end. The Dragon Suplex is a common move in the suplex-friendly Japan but, like a lot of suplex variations, is banned by WWE because of the stress it puts on the receiver's neck. By putting the person receiving the move into a full nelson before throwing them over their head and onto their back/neck/head it really is up to the person giving the move to make sure it is done safely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWVcoyMqk_k Daniel Bryan is a wrestler who has done the move countless times and knows how to do it safely. When (or if) he returns from his current injury layoff he should add it to his regular repertoire, replacing the reckless diving headbutt.
