It's not my burden to disprove anything. At no point has Ao even hinted at Gentle Fist let alone Rotation. Nor is there any evidence Rotation can even halt a Juubi Bijudama, since the Hyuga fighting the juubi didn't even bother to try.

It's clear based on lore Ao is stronger then the Hugya clan members. that being said rotation is the most plasable way for Ao to counter the tailed beast bomb and explain how he lost a arm and a leg both on this right side but not on this left side.
