10 Things WWE Got Right At SummerSlam 2016
5. Nikki Bella's New Finisher
Speaking of Nikki Bella, it was nice to see that not everyone that went out with injuries in the Cena/Bella/Bryan household during 2016 didn't have to call it a career inside the ring. Definitely one of the larger reactions of the night, Nikki Bella's return was a welcomed one.
Another aspect that was welcomed was her new finisher. Nikki will continue to use the running forearm as a setup to her finish as she should since it's one of the best looking forearms in the business and she delivers it wish such aggression. But unlike her previous finishing manuevre, the Rack Attack, Nikki's neck and knees won't be on the receiving end of as much damage with her new signature match-ender.
At SummerSlam, Nikki debuted her TKO finisher which, while it still requires the neck to bare a lot of the opponent's weight at first, is safer for Nikki to perform than the Rack Attack. The TKO is also a similar setup and look to the Rack Attack that makes for a sensible transition: think Rack Attack 2.0, or perhaps Rack Attack 02.
Welcome back Nikki Bella and job well done with the new finisher!
