WWE Moves that Aren't Banned but Probably Should be

These WWE wrestling moves are dangerous but haven't been banned despite how risky they are and, in some cases, disturbing history.

Do you think any of these moves should be banned?

[bigchubbs]

Bad bunny doing the Canadian destroyer was satisfying to see a non wrestler executing a hard move

[infinity]

Agreed that the Styles Clash Shouldn’t be Banned


AKA The Faithbreaker

[Jay-week]

I'm not surprised the shooting star press isn't banned. It CAN be done well and quite safely, for example with a lighter weight guy onto a heavier guy. What I am surprised at is that Billy Kidman was ever allowed to do them.

I'm legit bout to sleep but lowkey had to watch this

[MManmithaW]

Styles is the most trusted to perform the Styles Clash cos he does it so safely. Even in the Ellsworth incident, styles' reflexes was so fast that he put his feet down to the ring a millisecond before Ellsworth's head hit.

WWE: *bans move*

AEW: "check THIS out!"

Is probably why a lot of things go unbanned by WWE

[fullmontymayhem]

Honestly, the destroyer is more safe than a regular piledriver, also the shooting star was banned for a few years until Evan Bourne (matt sydal) showed them how perfectly he hit it. Now wwe has a rule that you can only use some moves if you can hit it flawlessly 10 times in a row in a practice ring

Benoit should've stopped that flying headbutt before it was too late.

[himalsinjali]

SSP should not be banned it’s a beautiful move if done correctly

[TophDaGreat]

What confused me about Austin Aries was he never used the brianbuster in his NXT run (used a spinning forearm), so I assumed they must have told him not to do the move, but I've seen the move used by others in NXT and NXT UK. Never really got that.

[markmorabito]

What baffles me is why WWE allows the Canadian but not a traditional pile-driver. The recipient lands in pretty much the exact same position in both.

As far as the diving headbutt, I've always hated the move. It just really looks unintelligent. I used to think it made Chris Benoit look bad that his move hurt him more than it hurt his opponent.

I really wish Brock's shooting star press would have worked out at WrestleMania. If only Kurt were a bit closer, it could have been such an amazing moment, rather than the disaster it ended up being. He had done the move correctly several times in his early career.

The bridging German Suplex always looks so dangerous to me. It’s as if the user of the move would break his/her neck upon execution.

[huffy]

AJ actually makes sure the recipient, is safe. Before, executing.

[EirinYagokoro]

Shooting star press was banned in the mid 2000s. It was only unbanned after Matt Sydal/Evan Bourne performed it flawlessly in late 2000s. Canadian destroyer isn't banned because Vince actually loves that move

[brandonsettle]

On the Styles Clash move it's not just done by AJ, Michelle Mccool has used it just under the name of the Faith Breaker

3:25 I'm a medical health professional with a specialty in geriatric lobotomy and I 100% agree with your assessment here 2 more inches and Taker would have passed away instantly upon impact in front of all the fans omg pray for Taker

[ECHOKINGXD]

Both companies need to ban some of these we don’t want wrestlers to retire early or maybe even die

[Gamer_kill]

The Canadian destroyer It’s like a Front flip and piledriver bro

[reideley]

I feel like if Yoshi had not said anything the Styles Clash would have been used more often in WWE
