In recent months, it's become apparent that the brainbuster is no longer banned in WWE. Vince McMahon has, of course, banned a number of moves he deems to be dangerous and there's a reason The Undertaker is the only one allowed to use the Tombstone Piledriver.
According to Bryan Alvarez of WrestlingObserver.com, there's a good reason this move (also known as the Canadian Destroyer) has been unbanned. Well, "good" is one way of putting it!
"I wish I remembered the details but the point of this is that someone showed Vince a clip of the Canadian Destroyer," he revealed. "Vince said something to the effect of ‘why don’t we do that cool sh** on our show?" This is why we're seeing the likes of Rey Mysterio and The Revival now pulling off the move.
WWE matches have definitely benefited from its return but it's hard not to wonder what else could be on that list just waiting to be unbanned after Vince is shown a clip of some "cool sh*t."
