And Cody no sold a Burning Hammer. Never thought these moves would be just another spammed maneuver. 
The Tombstone and Pedigree are basic moves now

True, but the stunner/cutter and DDT at least have variations that are finishers still.

I still remember feeling a way during the Monday night wars when DDT became a transition move.
i still think AEW missing some money by having Jake taking a Babyface under his wing and giving them the DDT.
Nobody else should have the stone cold stunner, I don't care if Austin like Owens

That's been my issue for a minute. I remembering some years Del Rio hitting a dude (either Ziggler or Sheamus) with a top rope reverse suplex and I'm like "That's it". Opponent kicked out easily at two, but that trash ass arm bar put them away.Gunther restoring the feeling making basic moves finish off his opponent.

Plenty of times have I seen it in AEW. Even saw it this past week in NXT with Lash winning with a pump kick.Gunther restoring the feeling making basic moves finish off his opponent.
The last time I remember the DDT being a legit finisher was when Tommy Dreamer, Raven and Arn Anderson were using it. After them I suddenly realized the DDT wasn’t special anymore when wrestlers were using crazy variations of it like the Impaler DDT, Spinning DDT, Hammerlock DDT, Draping Apron DDT and etc…

I forgot who it was but somebody did the pedigree mid match and just moved on 
Out of all the moves to get nerfed I would think the pedigree would never be on that list.
DDT status.
I don’t remember seeing anyone using the tombstone.

I wonder if the Tombstone is an American thing because ever since I started watching New Japan years ago I would regularly see Okada use the Tombstone as a regular moveI forgot who it was but somebody did the pedigree mid match and just moved on

the kids inherit from their parents and are less effective with those tools as a result because they didn't have to hone them 
Cody and Seth got the Pedigree
Owens got the Stunner
everybody and they mama got the superkick (makes sense. Shawn did get around)
everyone with naps got the spinebuster. Everyone without them is culturally appropriating.
Jey got the pop-lock slap. And the hand-spit. And the Samoan drop. And the Spear. And...
Jey got the 5 moves of doom
