Except he's not dashing whenever he uses the move. From what I can see, he's used it twice, once in the Villager's little movie deal, and once when he's being showcased.
Interestingly enough, his little showcase has two different flying kicks(1:11), with one similiar to Fox's dash attack kick, and one that is an actual dropkick that you;d see in a professional wrestling match. With the first kick, it seems that he does a small lunge forward suggesting that he's entering his dash, and that could as well be his dash attack. However the second kick, the dropkick, has him rocking back preparing for a jump similiar to an actual person or wrestler dropkicking. He isn't dashing or running at the time and doesn't have the jerk of a dash going off.
tl;dr I'm probably looking way too much into this, but Im hoping for customizable movesets. You can pick from a few choices and customize your character that way. Probably a long shot, but could explain how Bowser could have two different forwad tilts.
