If you ever watched Seth Rollins perform a curb stomp and thought "that probably hurt like hell," then your train of thought is in-line with the brass of the WWE. According to Wrestlezone, the promotion is banning the Heavyweight Champ's finisher due to fears of unnecessary head trauma (and subsequent lawsuits). On top of that, the WWE is apparently erasing the move from their history, which is why Rollins' entrance video during last week's RAW was a different stream of curb stomp-less clips in the place of his normal intro. Since this may indeed be the end of Rollins blacking out opponents, we embedded a YouTube tribute above for you. There's no reason for you not to remember the move, even if it's likely that the opponents on the receiving end cannot.
