Since it was announced that WWE developmental talent Ember Moon would be making her debut at this month’s NXT Takeover: Brooklyn II special, there has been a lot of online chatter about her crazy “new” finishing maneuver.

Cena Praises Seth Rollins on Impressive Feat
WWE Superstar Seth Rollins recently posted an impressive clip online, featuring his latest weightlifting accomplishment – hitting 235 pounds on a snatch lift.
