It was previously reported that Seth Rollins’ finishing move, the Curb Stomp, has been banned by WWE. On last night’s episode of RAW, Rollins debut a DDT variant to win his match with Dolph Ziggler. Now a new report suggests that the curb stomp wasn’t banned after all.

WWE reportedly made Rollins change the move due to safety issues. They believe that there is more that can go wrong with a move than not and they wanted to prevent possible problems in the future. However, they haven’t banned the move. Dave Meltzer suggested that the new move is considered a “semantic situation.” WWE doesn’t want to bring attention to the fact that they changed the move, but it’s not banned.

The report suggests that the curb stomp will join the piledriver. It won’t appear often on WWE TV but can still be used for special occasions. It’s unknown what move WWE will settle on to be Rollins’ official finisher, but it won’t be the curb stomp.

Boooooooooo

If he uses it more like Orton's punt as a big-time spot, I could see that working to make certain matches more special.

Sure it would.

But it also makes him look fucking stupid. Why is the heel cheater having a moral dilemma about using a move he used for two years that hurt >>> NO ONE <<<

Orton's kick is not remotely special as I can't remember the last time it was even fucking used <_<

So it's basically still banned. Lame.

I dont want to see one Curbstomp every few months/years. I want to see it on every RAW. >_>
