I never really heard of the guy until recently, but Adams has been said to be the originator of the move, therefore he must be shown some respect.
When looking up highlights on YouTube, his version of the move is super impactful. It looks like he is going to take the guys head off and because of this it makes wrestling look and feel real.
This dude invented the move that just about every person in the world today uses, therefore he deserves respect and a mention on a list with some truly great performers.
Thank you Chris Adams!
