Why is Shawn Michaels Superkick called Sweet Chin Music?
During an appearance on the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast, Michaels gave a detailed explanation on the evolution of Sweet Chin Music. He said:
“When I first did singles, I tried to use what was later called a teardrop suplex. I just used the double underhook, crotched a guy and suplexed him. So I used it and one day Pat Patterson came to me. He said, “I like it, but that kick, the kick, is actually more effective than the suplex. What do you think about using that one?”
“The Sweet Chin Music, I remember doing the commentary on a Roger Clemens fastball in baseball again and they said, ‘Oh, a little bit of Roger Clemens’ Sweet Chin Music to push him off the plate,’ and I talked to Vince Russo and von . ‘ That’s when the striker Russo started to kick around a promotional idea and felt like it was a good name to take what everybody was kind of calling a superkick and turn it into a slightly more stylized, targeted finishing move, you know. to differentiate the Heart Break Kid.
