In 2 weeks he's made two wrestlers look pathetic by powering out of one finisher after it had been clamped in and making Benoit look like nothing (what's wrong with using the ropes to break the hold and then let him fight back and unleash his finisher?) and kicking straight out of Rhyno's gore.
The best type of push is to make the wrestler look strong while not making the guys he's going over look pathetic, which has happened in both instances. I've always thought it an unwritten rule in wrestling that if you get hit with the guy's finisher and he pins you straight away you don't get back up out of it because for every person that gets pinned by that finisher from there on it makes them also look pathetic to the other guy.
And another example of more great creative decisions when you have a Cruiserweight title match going on yet the camera is on some guy outside the ring for half of the match. It devalues the belt (although we all know what Vince thinks of anyone under 6 foot 3) and makes those 2 wrestlers seem like nothing even though both Funaki and Akio have more talent in their little finger then Carlito has in his whole body and afro.
God how has the WWE not gone out of business yet?
I do see your point, but i am sticking with mine!

Are you telling me that if i ran at you and Gore'd you and that was the only move i done, and you were the size of Bstista, that you would not kick out?

A finisher is meant to be powerful, but a lot of finishers wouldnt win the match in the first second, especially against someone like Batista. I would expect the top stars to kick out of some finishers, not all, but from some of the smaller players like Rhyno who is not really World Heavyweight Champ Material. Some top stars kick out of the pedigree if it takes Triple H three seconds before he makes the cover, and this is like 25 minutes into the match, therefore i would expect a fresh person to kick out.
Banging the boss' daughter
ding ding ding!!! we have a winner

the idea of a finishing move is just that, it finishes off the opponent whether it be in the first second of the match or the first hour
Bloody Powerful
Winner of the Rumble
About to have a big break up/rivalry with the World Heavyweight Champ
I am pretty sure he will get the title, even if it is not at Wrestlemania, he will get it during his carreer.
