    How come Petey Williams is the only person who can do a destroyer?

      To be fair, he created the move so he better be able to do it lmao

      But yeah 90% of people who do destroyers, I fucking hate how they look. Baker’s looks stupid with the turbuckle hop before hand, Cole’s looks…5% better then hers but same issue that damn turnbuckle hop is pointless and breaks the flow of the move, Skye Blue’s Code Blue looks like the softest fucking 1 foot bump a lot of the time cause she’s so short, tho Perez’s above looks a bit better than the average Blue one.

      I feel Dustin Rhodes does a decent one the times I’ve seen him do em, Penta as well especially when he does a running one fast as shit, but it doesn’t help it became the new hotness that everyone had to try and do.

      Aren’t these Code Reds and not Canadian Destroyers? One’s a sunset flip powerbomb and the other is a front flip piledriver.

        Ya know what, looked it up and you’re right. I kinda lumped em together over the years but one is classified as a Sunset Flip Powerbomb, and the other a Sunset Flip Piledriver.

        I guess I’ll change my statement. I don’t like sunset flip powerbombs compared to sunset flip piledrivers lol.
