As much as I've loved the Strowman squash matches, the point of them was to eventually move him up the card vs actual wrestlers, right? Starting him off by squashing Sin Cara is fine.

Even so, it's not like wrestlers weren't doing this move in WWE before 2014. Until Sting finally signed a wwe contract, no way were they calling that move the "Stinger Splash" all the time. Sting wrestling two matches for WWE and getting an honorary HOF spot does should not mean that move is now his in the company for the rest of time.
Just call it a turnbuckle splash, or don't even call it anything, it's not close to a signature move in anyone's set right now, it's simply generic offense.
