Earlier today, former WWE referee Jimmy Korderas took to Twitter to share his take on WWE using too many roll-up finishes lately. Korderas often shares “Reffin’ Rants” on Twitter, where he discusses the current wrestling product.
“I’ve said it on here many times when something happens too often, it loses its specialty. And something happened on Monday night that is not only a problem on WWE and Raw, but it is an industry-wide problem. Like I say, when something happens too often, it doesn’t mean anything, it loses its specialness. And one of the things we’re seeing a lot of, not only in WWE but across the board is the surprise rollup finish,” he said.
Korderas further elaborated on his comments, stating that overexposing the rollup finish can take away the element of surprise and make the finish feel flat, especially when it is not executed in a creative way.
“You have these great matches, these great false finishes, people are kicking out of people’s finishes, actual finishes, and people are going, ‘ooh, aah,’ and then all of a sudden you get these roll-ups with the bad distraction. It’s gotta stop. At least don’t do it as much. And if you’re going to do a distraction, at least make the distraction more creative than, ‘huh?!’”
In today's #ReffinRant in wrestling, when something occurs to often it tends to lose its effect and feel less special. 🤔 #StaySafe pic.twitter.com/Wdyp6gXtR6
