10 Most Underappreciated Wrestling Moves
2. CM Punk's Roundhouse Kick
Let's run the numbers. CM Punk is 6 feet 2 inches. Dwayne “The Dwayne Johnson” Johnson is 6 feet 5 inches. While facing each other with about 3 feet of separation CM Punk can kick the back of The Rock's head. Solve for X, where X equals “how does he do that?”
The straightness of Punk's leg and the height of his kicks are what make the move impressive. If you watch closely you can see he even points his toes; it's elegant, sudden and genuinely balletic. So maybe if that MMA career doesn't work out he could give competitive dancing a go? Worked for Jericho.
Punk's roundhouse defies all logic in how he maintains that much agility and propels his leg with that much force. This should have been his finisher: it's snappy, comes out of nowhere and he did it far better than the Go To Sleep.
