WRESTLING INFORMATION
Finishing Moves (two max)
1. 'Caged Explosion' – The attacker stands in front of the victim after kicking them in the gut. The attacker will then reach and pull the victim's head into one of his arms and quickly spin around and hit an inverted neck breaker on said victim. Shawn's version is inverted and plants the victim on the face. Allowing him to roll them over and hook both legs to score a pin fall.
2. 'The Nightmare of Broken Dreams' – The attacker runs at the victim and slams both knees into the victims face, then he grabs the head with both hands behind the back of the head and falls back on his back to drive both knees into the victims face again, then he triangles his legs held very high against the opponent's upper back with one folded so the shin is across the front of the neck or trachea, and then the other is locked and wrapped around the back of the neck to form the triangle and pulls back on the victims head with both hands locked behind the head to force the tap out, known to cause bleeding from the mouth and/or nose.
Trademark Moves (two max)
1. 'Requiem for a Dream:' – Butterfly Float Over Piledriver (Reverse Canadian Destroyer)
2. 'Dust to Dust' – Bridging Straight-Jacket Gory Lock

Wrestling Style: He executes moves cleanly, and crisply, while defending moves extremely well with many reversals and counters. He often employs his knowledge of submission holds to chip away at opponents. He will take to the skies if he deems it necessary, as he can leap with the best of them. However past injuries have grounded him slightly and due to age, he isn't as quick as he used to be, so he has employed many more technical moves to compensate. The athleticism he possesses for his size and strength is one of his biggest attributes, allowing him to wrestle easily with both big and small men.
In-Ring Strengths: Submissions and take downs, once Shawn Cage has you on the mat you are for lack of the better word, fucked.
In-Ring Flaws: Sometimes he is a bit over confident and gets too ahead of himself and becomes easily distracted by egging on the fans and playing games with his opponent.
In-Ring Attitude: He comes in the ring looking to take apart the other person standing across the ring from him. He uses the term "Make You My Bitch" a little too far.
