The Kingslayer has a new weapon. Tonight on Raw, Seth Rollins showed the world and more immediately, The Club, his brand new finishing move.

Big Cass, Enzo and Seth Rollins faced off against The Club and Samoa Joe tonight on Raw, but Anderson and Gallows got the jump on their competitors when they took out Enzo with a vicious super kick before the match.
Raw GM, Kurt Angle then replaced Enzo with none other than former Bullet Club leader, Finn Balor. Balor had no problem taking it to his former Bullet Club partners in the match and Gallows and Anderson punished their former leader. After Balor made the hot tag, Seth Rollins cleared house of The Club and Samoa Joe.
It was then that Rollins teased hitting the Pedigree on Karl Anderson, but stopped mid-move and debuted the finisher he has recently been trying on house shows.

The high knee lift is Rollins’ third finisher since joining the WWE main roster. His curb stomp was taken away from him when WWE deemed it too dangerous for superstars in the ring and kids trying it outside of the ring.
Rollins used the Pedigree during his time under Triple H’s wings and while it makes sense for The Kingslayer to have a move all his own, the striking knee may not have won over the WWE Universe just yet.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the new finisher.
Rollins is in much need of a more unique finisher..
