| I mostly did the former with a few additional moves added.

| I did my moveset myself. I never saw the point in copying someone that already exist's moveset. I'm here to create Kerry Keller, not Jimmy Jacobs except with a different name. |

| Yup, initially I based mine off of Edge's. However as time goes by I looked to evolve these moves and show an evolution of the moveset while keeping some things (like the Spear) a constant. I also made the moves I didn't change "mine", where as in 2007 the moves were simply called the Edgecutioner and the Edge-head-o-matic. Now they're the DEDEDE DDT and the Triple D Driver As for the actual moves evolving themself, the go-to moves in my aresneal are changing up too little by little. The jumping crossbody becomes the 360 tornado crossbody, or why the big boot becomes the discus boot. I'm also planning on fazing out the Grand Slam as well to make way for a new move in my arsenal. Evolution is wat I do. |

| I selected Ares' moves myself and either added stuff that no wrestler in particular uses for me to base it on (The Flying Double Foot Stomp and the Switchblade), or added moves from various different wrestlers (Frightmare's Standing Moonsault Double Knee Drop, Shibata's Penalty Kick, Rollins' Turnbuckle Bomb, Rob Van Dam/Shane McMahon's Coast To Coast, Super Dragon's UFO, Goto's Fireman's Carry Neckbreaker, etc...). Some moves I are a combination of others commonly used, such as Ares' Limit Break and Cacophony. I also tried to make some moves follow others, such as the Coast To Coast following the Turnbuckle Powerbomb, the Meteora following the Sakujo Screwdriver, and the Standing Moonsault Double Knee Drop following the Penalty Kick following the Fireman's Carry Takeover. Lastly, I specifically made it so that none of Ares' signature maneuvers are done off the top turnbuckle so that it would make his Meteora finisher feel more special. |

| As Jaywalker I did far more than any of my other characters. The muscle buster was from my Joe days. The northern lariat, rolling neck snap and spinebusters were from Roode. I haven't been that excessive with my other characters, but then again I was more of a rookie back then. |

| Aside from the Across The Park which is a play on Cody Rhodes' Cross Rhodes and the Final Chapter, I've took some moves from different wrestlers. Most of which are old-school wrestlers that I enjoyed watching growing up. Depravity is Goldust's Final Cut. On The Cross is kind of like Razor Ramon's Razor's Edge but my own variation of it. Some moves I added because my writers had me using them regularly like the muscle buster, the three German suplexes and the powerbomb.

Did you take any moves from your Miz era? |

| My moveset is generally similar to Roman's. Mainly because I just can't see Reigns doing other moves besides those ones. |

| I took some moves from Shaw's moveset, but also use a lot of moves that I just like myself. |

| I base my character's moveset off my pic base. I'm not gonna have a pic base like The Big Show do moves that Rey Mysterio does. |

| Yeah, up until 2013 my moveset was literally just "kurt angle." In my past run I've added some new moves like different suplexes and uppercuts Angle never did. There were a few other moves I've added and I've tried to add different finishers/big moves to compliment Angle's finishers. |

| Aria's moveset is definitely inspired by Sasha's, but I don't think she actually uses any moves that Sasha herself uses on a regular basis (aside from the suicide dive, I think). I plucked moves from a lot of wrestlers' movesets. It's a mish mash of Melina, Trish Stratus, Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, Charlotte, Finn Balor, AJ Lee, Daniel Bryan, Candice Michelle, John Cena, and probably some other people I'm forgetting. |

| Some of my moves were definitely made in regards to having the AJ Styles pic base. Senn Suplex Special, Phenomenal DDT, Fosbury Flop, Second City Combination, etc. came from Styles, but those are signatures or commonly used moves. However for finishers and even some of the other signatures, they are just moves that I wanted to implement towards my character because I liked the move. The Harmonic Divergence (being the Curb Stomp) was one of the moves that when I saw Rollins do the move, I just needed to use! I personally found it to be an interesting finish to a match and there can be various ways to land that move, versatile and a badass move! So, I would say mine is a mixture of both. |

| I basically use Colt's moveset. I mean who really uses the airplane spin these days?
I used use other moves within reason, like I wouldn't have a character do a shooting star press or a moonsault if the picbase was like Bully Ray. |

| I've taken suggestions from some people, but most of Jaden's and Aren's moves are ones that I selected myself. |

| I took the End of Days as a signature bust mostly I built my moveset around my finisher, taking a lot of influence from Undertaker/Kane, heavyweights in puroresu, and a couple crazy Indy moves. |

| Not too much. I actually combined Maryse and Lita into a character at first, that was closer to Lita, but with Maryse's attitude. Her finisher has always been Sweet Chin Music, but lately she has evolved to add a little bit of Randy Orton. She's a mixed bag really. |
