[believethehyph]

Stone Cold Stunner haha

[lanolynn]

gotta be the hogan legdrop. so much power.

[xTJx]

Hogan's finnisher in WCW/NWO Revenge for N64 is awesome...he smacks you across the face, gets down on his knees for forgiveness, then once the opponent takes it easy on him, POW, gauges you right in the eye

[EnderDove]

Figure 4 Leg Lock.

[lanolynn]

but seriously, my favorite is the razor's/outsider's edge.

[baronvonmavis]

CM Punk's Pepsi Plunge [Top-Rope Pedigree]

[btbam > you]

shawn michaels sweet chin music
or

stone cold stunner

[DaveFeelsRight]

Sweet Chin Music.

The Pimp Slap!

The Pimp Slap!
I really enjoyed that. That guy's awesome.

[Broken Parachute]

Shane Helms (The Hurricane) old finisher from WCW, "The Nightmare on Helms Street."

[fromwithin]

I prefer when Rob Van Dam hands his opponent a chair out of courtesy and then kicks them in the face when they are holding said chair.

or

Crippler crossface.

or

Tazmission.

[preppyak]

stone cold stunner
especially with beer in hand


Tazmission.
hah, Taz was such a bitch, but that move was pretty sweet

[fromwithin]

hah, Taz was such a bitch, but that move was pretty sweet

shut your mouth, he was from the streets!

[Stereo Mike]

The Stunner.

[Kif]

I've always been a fan of the choke slam, since you can use it pretty much anywhere and make it unique a lot easier. The lionsault is pretty cool as well though.

[Groogz]

Hogan's finnisher in WCW/NWO Revenge for N64 is awesome...he smacks you across the face, gets down on his knees for forgiveness, then once the opponent takes it easy on him, POW, gauges you right in the eye
Aren't you referring to Rick Flair's finisher from all of those video games? Either way, definitely a funny finisher

[Groogz]

I was always a huge Jake 'the Snake' fan so I'll have to go with the original DDT, but Raven perfected it with the Evenflow. Simple move but still quite enjoyable.

[Kif]

I always thought Diamond Dallas Page pulled off the stunner better than Stone Cold.

And sharpshooter is the best submission finisher.

[itsjdiggity]

X Pac's Bronco Buster!

[Kif]

Sup homoeroticism?

[Broken Parachute]

Has anyone said Billy Kidman's 'Shooting Star Press'? It's the most riskful.

Fuck.

[kylecrawford]

back in wcw when gregory helms, was shane helms and he did the "vertibreaker" that shit is crazy

[ides of march]

Shooting Star Press, Lionsault, or RKO

[nfggc10]

Yokozuna's bonzai drop....600 lbs right onto a guy's face and the dude's face always got in Yoko's ass for some reason.

And in the old school royal rumble game for super i used to just do that move over and over on people just for the fun of it.

[Broken Parachute]

back in wcw when gregory helms, was shane helms and he did the "vertibreaker" that shit is crazy

Nightmare on Helms Street = greatest move evverrr

It was probably the most dangerous, because there was always a chance you could break their neck by accident.

[Jentheoptimist]

The downward spiral. The one edge used to do and then broke that guys neck and was banned from doing.

[Jentheoptimist]

Hogans leg drop lmao

[Boring Pop Song]

the swanton bomb

[tymsnurmn04]

the swanton bomb
The Hardy Bros?

Man I used to think they were the shit...till they got owned by the Dudley Bros.

[kylecrawford]

Nightmare on Helms Street = greatest move evverrr

It was probably the most dangerous, because there was always a chance you could break their neck by accident.

I hate to tell you this, but it was the vertibreaker, nightmare on helms street was the eye of the hurricane in wwe....

I dare you to challenge me, he even came out to a song he rapped to with tthe nitro girls, VERTIBREAKKEEERRRR

[kylecrawford]

The downward spiral. The one edge used to do and then broke that guys neck and was banned from doing.


AGAIN... it wasnt banned... Kanyon did it when he came in, the flatliner... Im obsessed with wrestling, I know alllllll

he was doing the edge-a cution a submission move and he had the edge a matic some stupid back neck drop sit down thing...

[FOBPrettyNPunk]

I always liked Ken Shamrock's ankle lock.

[itsjdiggity]

someone explain the Downward Spiral...i forget

[Broken Parachute]

I always thought NM on Helms Street was the Vertebreaker. Oh well. I didn't watch too much WCW, but I love Shane Helms. I started watching wrestling with WWF, never really watched WCW.

[Chico]

back in wcw when gregory helms, was shane helms and he did the "vertibreaker" that shit is crazy

Hell yea, that was crazy. The whole 3count vs Norman Smiley feud=golden. Heres my favorite finishers:
Favorite off the top rope finishers: Jack Evan's 630 and the double stomp.
Favorite finisher in the middle of the ring: Alex Shelley's Shellshock and Jay Lethal's Dragon Suplex.
Favorite submission: Brian Danielson's Cattle Mutilation or Charlies Haas' Haas of pain.

Speaking of broken necks...

wow.

[xTJx]

Jeff Hardy's 540 spash was pretty intense

[piebaldkid42]

its all about the diamond cutter
the powerbomb was pretty sweet too, there's a bunch others actually but those are all i feel like thinking about right now

[mouood]

I always thought Diamond Dallas Page pulled off the stunner better than Stone Cold.

And sharpshooter is the best submission finisher.

:ditto: for both.

great call dub-ton, when i read the title of this thread, i was going to choose the destroyer. so i'll add the C4 (burchill), the regal stretch (my favorite submission), and the musclebuster

[Signals Corrupted]

The Pimp Slap!

human tornado is the man - my avatar

[Chico]

I totally forgot about Pirate Paul's C4. Too bad he works for the evil empire.

[ThriftWhore]

Stone Cold Stunner.

PERIOD.

Easily the best move ever.

Canadian Destroyer is more flashy, for sure.

[gilatron5000]

The Stunner is gay. I'm sorry. But it is. The RKO owns the Stunner.

That being said, and seen Paul Burchill's finisher?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=4oj_a-ggupk

[Robb]

shut your mouth, he was from the streets!

He shops at the Nordstrom I work at. It's... odd.

[ThriftWhore]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=4oj_a-ggupk
It's very sick.

But every time I see the Stunner, the hair on the back of my neck stands up, and in my head I hear Jim Ross screaming "OH MY GOD! STUNNER! STUNNER!".

[xfirstlostsoulx]

i personally believe Burchill has the best finisher in wrestling!
For a guy of his size its quite impressive that he can perform the C4!
AND can do standing moonsaults and standing star presses
Hes very under rated and needs to be pushed immediately
Good move by the WWE signing him
but he needs to get pushed!

[gilatron5000]

It's very sick.

But every time I see the Stunner, the hair on the back of my neck stands up, and in my head I hear Jim Ross screaming "OH MY GOD! STUNNER! STUNNER!".maybe, but it's like...the laziest finisher in wrestling.

Oh, and I love the Angle Slam.

[Kif]

The stunner isn't a bad finisher, but Stone Cold always hit it so sloppy.

[baronvonmavis]

Has anyone said Billy Kidman's 'Shooting Star Press'? It's the most riskful.

Kidman's Shooting Star is sloppy as fuck. If you want to see a real Shooting Star Press, find a clip of Paul London's, especially when he did it off a ladder in ROH.

[[Brendan]]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yo7VOh1J_Y&search=aj%20stylesHe didn't end his career Kazarian was fine afterwards.

[lanolynn]

the diamond cutter was cool just because ddp could hit it so many different ways.

[Brownpants06]

Stunner


Nobody gets up from a stunner.

[Anton Djamoos]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR_X3HxgSuw&search=stunner

Yeah, the Stunner ruled. JR always had the best commentary when it happened. Austin also had one of the best entrance music with the glass breaking because whenever that happened you knew it was going down.

[Goodbye Forever]

']He didn't end his career Kazarian was fine afterwards.

Hence, the nearly.

[Anton Djamoos]

Hence, the nearly.
Yeah that could have been horrible. Horribly botched move.

[Signals Corrupted]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=EVGo38uCj2s steam roller is the best finisher, by far

[itsjdiggity]

i loved it when Rock would oversell the Stunner

[Broken Parachute]

i loved it when Rock would oversell the Stunner

Haha, he would go down and then like catapult back up and his legs would go over the ropes and he'd start like flailing all over. It looked so funny.

[Signals Corrupted]

i loved it when Rock would oversell the Stunner

hahaha nobody took a stunner like scott hall though

[Capital H]

I like either the frog splash (RVD's or Eddie's) and the 3-D.

[Jentheoptimist]

I always liked Ken Shamrock's ankle lock.
I've had that done to me, it hurts.

[Anton Djamoos]

I've had that done to me, it hurts.
I terrorized a girl with the ankle lock last night.

That second video is funny as hell once he gives her the stunner. That little barking in her face thing is so funny.

[unwritten]

Great thread...hahaha. Sharpshooter and the Stone Cold Stunner.

[Anton Djamoos]

That second video is funny as hell once he gives her the stunner. That little barking in her face thing is so funny.
Haha I always think of you when I see it now.

Stunner


Nobody gets up from a stunner.Kurt angle kicked out of THREE stunners.

[Anton Djamoos]

Kurt angle kicked out of THREE stunners.
The Rock kicked out of the stunner.

[nottheonlyone23]

this thread is awesome. my vote goes to pimp slap.

[Groogz]

Haha, that and of course 'MY FACE! LOOK AT MY FACE!'

[Anton Djamoos]

this thread is awesome. my vote goes to pimp slap.
I make the occasional good one.

[Anton Djamoos]

Haha, that and of course 'MY FACE! LOOK AT MY FACE!'
For those of you who do not understand this, this is an impersonation of good ol' JR. A damn good impression, might I add?

[Freud]

ken shamrock had the ankle lock i think. and the lion tamer? i dunno. that man was beast.

[Anton Djamoos]

JERICHO had the lion tamer. You can't mess that up, man. Chris Jericho!

If you didn't know, this guy's quite the Chris Jericho fan. Just check out his s/n listed in his signature.

jericho was the fucking man in wcw when he was cruiserweight champ. the man of 1001 holds. that shit was hillarious.

[monkeyboy14]

This thread brought back a lot of good memories. Especially that vid of Stone Cold and HHH unleashing finishers at the same time. I always liked X-Pac's finishers. And the Lo-Down was pretty cool if I remember correctly. And you can't go past the Mandible Claw with Mr Socko for a classic moment

[Crocodile Logic]

rikishi's stink-face.

[baronvonmavis]

There was a mandible claw with a barbed wire socko last night at Wrestlemania, that was cool.

[oldwirehands]

I went through the first four pages or so and didn't find one person who said the Tombstone. The Undertaker back in the day was awesome.

I also like the Dudley Boys one. I think it was called 3D?

My original plan was to just say Owen Hart's death fall but I'm not in the mood for tasteless jokes. Its way too early for me.

[lanolynn]

Dean Malenko was the man of 1001 holds. Jericho was the man of 1004 holds.
pretty sure malenko was 1000 holds, and when jericho beat him he started having 1001 on his tights and saying he was better than milenko because he was the man of 1001 holds. i could be wrong.

edit: i was wrong. malenko was the man of 100o holds, jericho 1004.

I got it twice in a tag ironman match against Shaun a couple days ago. It was so cool.
