>>6000893Other people can't hit your finisher like you can, this has always been a thing in wrestling as far back as it was done. Cody then collapsed after he used his last bit of strength and adrenaline to hit that receipt.
The two finishers at the end were Cody running way below strength with one bad arm.
WWE also established that guys at the top of their game are at another level and can often kick out of finishers at their peak strength in a big match. Not sure the exact date this started but Austin Rock was the earliest popular example I can think of.
It all made sense according to wrestling bullshit.
