Why?  He is working exactly the safer, ground-based style that
management has said in the past that they want their workers to use to
cut down on the rash of injuries.

Storm doesn't need to adjust.  WWE needs the announcers to adjust so
that they put over safer styles so that casual fans learn to
appreciate safe workers.  Casual fans need to be educated that
workers being dropped on their shoulders or bouncing around like a
superball is not the only quality style, and that working a limb in a
logical and realistic manner doesn't mean that they are "boring."
