It is fairly obvious why WWE has banned the use of a very impactful finisher. Ever since the Chris Benoit incident, WWE has kept itself away from moves that may cause head injuries to its talents. Lars Sullivan and Daniel Bryan have sparingly used this move but have since stopped due to the risks involved. Head injuries are very common in WWE and, considering the risks and heights WWE wrestlers go to entertain the audience, WWE has ensured safer moves for its talents and has banned any move that might cause a concussion.

#1 The Vertebreaker

The Vertebreaker is a move originally used by Hurricane Helms, and while he never injured any opponents with the move, WWE decided to ban the movie because of the risks that surrounded its perfect execution. Seth Rollins used the move against AJ Styles but has since then stopped using the move. Ever since Hurricane left WWE, The Vertebreaker hasn't been used by other wrestlers.

Are there any other moves that WWE have banned that you're aware of? Are there any they should? Share your thoughts in the comments section below, or drop us a line on our Twitter account by following us at @SKProWrestling!
