DDP Believes This WCW Star Sold The Diamond Cutter The Best

Yahoo16-05-2025
There have been a lot of great sells of DDP's Diamond Cutter over the years, but he believes one WCW star surprisingly sold it better than anyone.
WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page recently sat down with CasinoBeats. When asked who sold the Diamond Cutter the best, DDP said it was former UFC and WCW star Tank Abbott.

'Ah, God. There were so many good ones. But I literally have to say Tank Abbott,' DDP said. 'And Tank Abbott was an MMA fighter who came in, legitimate badass dude, and the Diamond Cutter was a shoot hold. One of your brothers, Stephen Regal, the great Lord Stephen Regal, who was one of the best technical wrestlers, maybe ever, but definitely in that top 1%.
'But there's a hold that you craft. It's not like a headlock. It's reversed, and it's a cravat. And if I put you in that cravat and you don't go, you are going anyway. And Tank happened. When I went, I don't think he was ready because I came down, his feet went straight up, and he came down flat. I was just happy that he was a tough son of a bitch because that could do some serious damage. And I tell him, if you don't go, you are going anyway. He was pretty devastating looking.'

WWE SummerSlam Night 1 live results: Updates, winners and losers, highlights, grades and analysis

WWE's second-biggest event of the year, WWE SummerSlam 2025, kicks off on Saturday night at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. This year's installment marks the first time in history the annual premium live event will be spread across two nights, adopting the WrestleMania format WWE began in 2020. Saturday's card features six matches, headlined by a World Heavyweight Championship clash between defending champion Gunther and CM Punk, who is challenging for his second major title this summer. The two other championship bouts on the show involve WWE's women's division, with Tiffany Stratton defending her WWE Women's Championship against Queen of the Ring winner Jade Cargill, as well as Judgment Day's Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez putting their Women's Tag Team Championships on the line against Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss. In terms of non-title matches, two tag-team contests will also take place. WWE is injecting some celebrity star power into SummerSlam, having musician Jelly Roll team up with Randy Orton to take on Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre, paying off a feud that began last month on "SmackDown" and on Saturday Night's Main Event. The other tag-team match pits cousins Roman Reigns and Jey Uso against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed — members of Seth Rollins' heel faction on "Raw." Finally, Sami Zayn and Karrion Kross meet once again in a singles bout, continuing an ongoing angle that has simmered on WWE programming. Here's a look at Saturday's full WWE SummerSlam Night 1 match card, which kicks off at 6 p.m. ET on Peacock: World Heavyweight Championship: Gunther (c.) vs. CM Punk WWE Women's Championship: Tiffany Stratton (c.) vs. Jade Cargill WWE Women's Tag Team Championship: Raquel and Roxanne Perez (c.) vs. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss Roman Reigns and Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed Randy Orton and Jelly Roll vs. Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul Sami Zayn vs. Karrion Kross Follow all of the action from SummerSlam Night 1 with Uncrowned's live coverage below:
