3 Things WWE should unban and 3 that should remain banned

#5 The Bucklebomb (should remain banned)

There are a bunch of dangerous moves that WWE has banned over the years, and the buckle bomb recently made the list after Nia Jax used it on Kairi Sane during a taping of WWE RAW. The move is a wrestler using a powerbomb on their opponent, and dropping them on the turnbuckle.

A short while ago, Nia Jax executed the move on Sane on RAW, and it was clear as day that the latter didn't land right. This instance led to Vince McMahon deciding that the move needed to be banned. While discussing the ban, Pro-wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer recalled WWE not banning the move back when Sting suffered an injury at the hands of Seth Rollins, at Night of Champions 2015.

The Bucklebomb is certainly a move that needs to remain in the banned. It's a move that is bound to shorten careers if not executed properly, as evident from Sting's case. Vince McMahon's decision to ban the move is something the WWE Universe would be glad to see not get overturned anytime soon.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
