Not at all. The STF and Dragon Sleeper have been around for years. The Walls
of Jericho is a variation of the Boston Crab, also around for years. The
others are fairly new, but it has been said in wrestling many times that you
can't patent a move. Many people use different names for the same move
(Scorpion Deathlock/Sharpshooter/Sasore Game/Clap Trap) and many moves used
today aren't originals nor do they use the proper or original name for the
move.

The Stunner is a version of The Ace Crusher (also referred to as a reverse
Bulldog Headlock by some), The Rock Bottom a Uranage Judo Suplex, The
Tazmission an illegal Judo hold called the Kata-Hajime. The Angle Slam is a
variation of the Fireman's Carry. The list goes on and on.
