A few years ago, I had a chance to interview Jake 'The Snake' Roberts. I asked him what he felt about others using the DDT as one of the moves in their arsenal, that their opponents would kick out of.
It's very foolish of them to do that. It's the best wrestling manoeuvre ever invented. When they go out and do it, and the guy gets up, all you're doing is telling people that- 'When Jake Roberts did it, people didn't get up. So Jake Roberts must be better.'

It was a cool sight to see the Canadian Destroyer used in Canada, but to no avail, because neither Superstar scored a victory with the move. It just felt like yet another move, and didn't feel special.
But then, can you fault Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole after their extraordinary match?
