Despite recent reports suggesting otherwise, Seth Rollins' "Curb Stomp" move has not been banned by WWE.

While WWE has not officially banned the move, it appears that Rollins will in fact be changing his finisher to the DDT-facebuster type move he used to beat Dolph Ziggler on Monday night's RAW.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that Rollins using a new move is more of a "semantic situation," and that WWE does not want to draw attention to the fact that the "Curb Stomp" is no longer being used.

What are the bets that it is actually banned? Can kinda see why, as if it's done wrong it could really go wrong. But you could say that about a few moves really.

It's probably part of the 'do not try this at home' movement. That move in particular is easy to copy and easy to really hurt someone. No matter how many times they say it, kids will copy what they see and by removing moves like that it's less likely to be used on some poor unsuspecting bugger on the school playground...

They have built the move so well, it's a real shame that he's got to start over with a new move. He had the last legitimate finisher after Reigns kicked out of Bryan's running knee. Still salty about that one.
