After WWE officials banned Seth Rollins’ Curb Stomp, he began using Triple H’s Pedigree as a finisher in tribute to his mentor. However, Rollins continued using the finisher as a dig against The Game after he was betrayed by Triple H and their conflict began last summer.

this is like okada’s rainmaker,only with a knee except with a clothesline
