quote: No wonder I don't watch Velocity, the commentators SUCK. They called that one finisher Juvi used a abdominal into a modified Michinoku driver and it looked NOTHING like the Michinoku driver, more like some sort of flap jack.
WWE move commentary is generally pretty poor (though WCW was much worse.) Most don't even know the move names. Tazz is probably the WWE current best, mainly because he does know move names. Heyman was probably the best play-by-play in the WWE in the last ten+ years, knowing the moves and actually caring to shill them. Cole is passable, but JR isn't. King is worthless these days, and Coach was always worthless for commentary.
I didn't watch Velocity, but Juvi's old finisher was the Juvi Driver, which was pretty much the same as a Michinoku Driver II. There are at least three Michinoku Drivers: I (underhook brainbuster suplex on inverted facelock suplex, depending on description), II (body slam piledriver though legs), and IIb (inverted facelock into bodyslam piledriver through legs).
And "modified" pretty much only means "vaguely resembles" when it comes to commentary.
