10 Current WWE Wrestlers Who Need New Finishing Moves

5. Seth Rollins

Why oh why did WWE stop allowing Seth Rollins to use the Curb Stomp? None of the arguments add up, except most of them do and I'm just bitter. The reason was two-fold, with the violent name and easy-to-replicate nature of the Curb Stomp leading to the change.

I'd say that the Curb Stomp is harder to replicate then Spears and oh, I don't know, KO PUNCHES. 'Drive-By' is every bit as violent a name too, but what can you do?

Either way, Rollins now uses the Pedigree as a finisher. For the briefest moment in-between, Rollins used a weird front-falling DDT thing as a finish, a move that wasn't awful but mostly made people go 'ugh, what?' when he used it to end matches.

As Rollins buddied up to the Authority the Pedigree became his go-to card, but now that Triple H is off the scene it is time for Rollins to move out on his own (move-wise) again.

How about the Phoenix Splash, or even the Falcon Arrow?
