This is one of my current bugbears with WWE and in wrestling generally - Orton's RKO being banned for the match. Like that's his only move, as if someone's finisher can only be made effective by that person. OK he makes it look good (ie Wrestlemania) but it's just a variant of the Stone Cold Stunner, the DDP Diamond Cutter and Cena's new Springboard Stunner move. It's like taking the RKO away from Orton makes him a 'weaker' wrestler.

OK they'll tease him getting disqualified as he stalks Rollings and looks like he's about to use the move but banning it in a match is not a compelling stipulation for me.
