Unironically super kicks and Canadian destroyers have been so fucking devalued that no one should use them for like 5 years.

That over acting everyone does when their opponent kicks out, and they sit there, not believing it. Every fucking match on every fucking show, like its the main event of Mania.

The one spot that sends me into an apoplectic fit every time is that spot where they do a combined powerbomb/superplex or something similar with 3-4 people in the corner. It just looks so fucking stupid and contrived.every time.

The Chop.
I'm sick and tired of the fucking chop.
There's nothing tough about standing there to take 5 chops, and you're not tough for giving the other guy 5 chops back.
It has gotten so awful to see, that if anybody in any company does even 1 chop, I get disgusted.
FTR - Bullet Club Gold is credited as "the best modern tag match". 8 minutes of it is chopping.
Go fucking die in a ditch. I fucking hate the chops.

Wrestler getting counted out selling that they're knocked out cold and don't move for 9 seconds then proceed to immediately get to their feet enter the ring and collapse again before the 10 count
that being said false countouts in general have become stale because there's rarely any countout finishes anymore

Any move where, if you have to get the crowd to go "WHOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" for 2 minutes straight because you want to do a pisstake move, and the opponent is supposed to stand in front of you looking stupid until you finally attempt it.

chop spots can be good it just cant be everyone doing it. i dont care if johnny gargano and ciampa chop each other for hours on end, but if drew and gunther do it then i want to see which of those hosses can take more punishment.
any spot to the outside of the ring is gay
pose routines are gay
reading through this thread i realize that i havent said anything new, so I'll just end it with this: i want more exposed concrete spots.

Not gonna happen. Once an easier, lazier era starts, skill and effort NEVER comes back, especially in the instant grat era. That's like saying guitar shredding will be mainstream again, or jazz fusion and classical. Tony Khan, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels will make sure they bury big guys, wrestling will remain too dimeless to draw real talented giants, and the gen being raised on flippy shit now - that will be ALL they know as wrestling. It's not coming back.

>strike trading or Frye/Takayama hockey pummel. Zero psychology 99% of the time, especially when guys who never do it suddenly do it because they're wrestling Suzuki.
>chain wrestling that ends in a pose-off for the sake of a pose-off, the break & pause should look like natural defence, it almost never does now.
>mirror move spots. Always sucks and looks lame, often involves 1 of the above as well.
>Chain rollups that are just Guy A, Guy B, ABAB for a short 1 or 2 count. It's never AABABBB just back-forth, almost always the same count for each pin, NEVER a 3, and usually goes on way too long- very rare that it looks good if it goes beyond 3 pins. Unless you're going to structure it differently and book it to sometimes get wins, it should be banned, it's a dance routine.
>Superkick, Canadian Destroyer, lucha armdrags where the guy slaps you and you wait like a goon for 20 seconds while he bounces around on the rope holding your hand.
>The OMG shocked spergout when someone kicks out of a finisher. It was good in Taker/HBK, shit tribute ever since.
>People not selling effort to get or apply their own submission, eg. ZSJ. If you don't look like you're trying to hurt the guy with your own hold, I don't believe it hurts.
