Ember Moon's leaping top-rope Stunner move has the potential to become the next big finisher in WWE this year. The Eclipse is impressive, but things could have been very different had WWE not renamed it to suit their own PG format.

Before reaching the promised land of WWE, Moon referred to her finisher as the "O-Face".

Fans of 1999's Office Space will know exactly what that means. In the movie, one character tells another that he plans on showing the "chick from logistics" his "O-Face". In other words, it's the contorted expression he'd pull when having an orgasm, and that's what inspired Moon.

She admitted this fact on the In This Corner podcast. It's unclear why she picked it, although the shocked expression Ember's victims make right before taking the bump probably has something to do with it. Let's just say it's hardly a surprise WWE came up with a new name.
