#1 Bring back the Punt Kick

The punt kick was the signature move of the most evil version of Randy Orton, but years ago, the offensive devastator disappeared from Orton's repertoire.

When the punt kick was first banned in WWE, reports theorized there were two main reasons why officials decided to pull the move from Randy Orton's arsenal. The first report suggested that the move violated the PG nature of WWE's TV programming, and the second report theorized that with concussion awareness becoming a hot topic in sports, WWE decided to nix the move to avoid potential serious injury.

However, with WWE possibly moving away from its PG programming, and Randy Orton being able to pull the move off in a very safe way, it seems as if WWE could reintroduce the punt kick effectively.

Seth Rollins previously had his curb stomp finishing move pulled, but the move was later reinstated and renamed The Stomp. If Rollins can effectively and safely use his Stomp move in the ring, there appears to be no reason why Randy Orton cannot bring back one of his signature maneuvers.
