Following a surgery and uncertain future for one half of the team, Kit Wilson of the former WWE tag team Pretty Deadly is forging a path as a singles competitor. Wilson is currently developing a finishing move, tentatively named “Men Cry Too,” signaling a commitment to building a distinct identity within the promotion. The move’s potential success could be a pivotal moment for the rising star, as a signature finisher is often key to establishing long-term viability in professional wrestling. Wilson revealed details of the move during a recent appearance on the Insight with Chris Van Vliet podcast.
Following a neck injury to his Pretty Deadly tag team partner, Elton Prince, which required surgery and leaves his future in the ring uncertain, Kit Wilson has emerged as a popular solo performer in WWE. Now, signaling a potential long-term commitment to a singles career, Wilson is developing a unique finishing move.
Appearing on the Insight with Chris Van Vliet podcast (via WrestleTalk), Wilson revealed:
“The finishing move, again, we’re shopping. We’re working on a move that I think I’m going to hit in the future is a top rope move called ‘Men Cry Too,’ so we might hit a little (double bicep pose).”
Wilson acknowledges that not every finishing move achieves iconic status within WWE, but remains optimistic about the potential of his new maneuver:
“We’ll see if it sticks. That’s the exciting thing. I think, right now, what’s exciting to me is that I feel like we’re on the cusp of some big things, so it’s kind of fun to tell you guys now, okay, this finisher is called Men Cry Too and let’s see if it happens.”
Fans will be watching closely to see the move debut, though the potential end of Pretty Deadly as a tag team is a bittersweet prospect. The development of a signature finishing move is a key step for any rising star in professional wrestling, solidifying their identity and creating a memorable moment for audiences.
