I also wonder why a taller opponent will usually go for a clothesline or high elbow strike on a shorter wrestler who easily ducks it when a low kick or drop toe hold would be much more strategic.

I've wondered similar stuff like how many wrestlers countered a chokeslam with a triangle choke or has any countered a Pedigree with a jacknife pin. And countering a suplex with a cradle, I've seen that in a few overseas matches. And the triangle choke thing I've seen in a couple of indy matches.


As for how much I watch, I've been watching RAW and Smackdown since Survivor Series 99 and took a break in 2008 when it suffered creatively. Watched casualy for a year before watching a full RAW after Summerslam this year and now I'm digging it. But I rarely catch Smackdown, 3 hrs. is enough for me.
