Beer City Bruiser On Being Gifted With His Version of Sister Abigal

May 17, 2021 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Beer City Bruiser recently discussed the origins of his signature moves, including how Bray Wyatt gave him his modified Sister Abigail, in a new interview. The ROH star spoke with Meat Sports Alcohol for a new interview, and you can check out some highlights from the Beer City Bruiser below (per Fightful):

Beer City Bruiser on using a modified Sister Abigail: “The DDT came because I was the fake Bray Wyatt at a WWE show. It went over really well and he was like, ‘Hey man, you should use my finishing move and make it twist.’ So, I ended up throwing a DDT with it and that’s my new finisher in Ring of Honor.”

On his frog splash: “The frog splash came because when I was with Harley [Race], he challenged all the guys over 300 pounds to do a splash off the top rope. I was like, ‘Not only will I do a splash, I’ll do a frog splash.’ I did it and Harley loved it. I had gotten rid of it on the Indies, but when I did ROH, there was a match against War Machine [Viking Raiders] and they were like, ‘it’d be really cool if you could hit something off the top rope.’ ‘Well, I used to do a frog splash.’ ‘Yeah, do that.’ He was further out than I ever had someone and I ended up hitting it perfectly and everyone freaked out, so it became my finishing move in Ring of Honor for a bit.”

On his cannonball to the outside of the ring: “The cannonball off the apron came because I used to do the Cactus elbow off the apron and Mark Briscoe already does that so they were like, ‘you can’t do that here,’ so I was thinking what else Cactus Jack did and he did that.”
