Title: Favorite Pro Wrestling Finishers Post by: Mr. DS on August 08, 2010, 10:21:43 PM I've always loved the powerbomb...Sid Vicious and Vaders were my favs.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYC9UFH2_lo Canadian destroyer is a very pretty move... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMprJocAp2M The Pearl River Plunge (tiger driver) was great when done by Ahmed Johnson... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwRR1FP6IEc Submision wise I like the camel clutch... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBL89_n4lCc Title: Re: Favorite Pro Wrestling Finishers Post by: Joe the Destroyer on August 09, 2010, 02:12:45 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2EdE7MOnXI
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uORvO3MubA I've always been a fan of The Pedigree. Call me cliche, but I've always loved it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTW4Mz-Lmz4 Yokozuna's Bonzai Drop always looked devastating. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWLTm0QjMdw Yet another one where you can call me old fashion, but I'm a fan of the Tombstone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKCakk-95xE Jericho's Codebreaker http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mKa-NEZurA And just for hilarity, Danshoku Dino's Danshoku Driver. Title: Re: Favorite Pro Wrestling Finishers Post by: JaseSF on August 09, 2010, 04:23:51 PM My favourites:
The Piledriver (as done by "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff and Jerry "The King" Lawler) - of course they've now banned this as it was pretty dangerous (and could lead to injuries rather easily if the head should drop and actually made a lot of contact) and usually resulted in guys suffering stingers in their necks afterwards at the very least. The DDT (as done by Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Jimmy "Jam" Garvin) - like the piledriver, pretty dangerous. These days, the RKO is kind of another variation and the regular DDT basically is just used as a set-up move these days. Still nobody ever seemed to execute it quite like Roberts or Garvin. The Go to Sleep (as done these days by C.M. Punk and KENTA) - just looks devastating - big old knee right in the mouth. The Pepsi Plunge (Punk's old finisher, one he used in ROH and the independents but probably won't be allowed to do in WWE as it's pretty dangerous looking and it's kind of Triple H's domain I guess - basically like a pedrigree off the top rope) The Sleeperhold (as done by Verne Gagne, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and nowadays Dolph Ziggler) - simple yet effective and believable. The Anklelock Submission (as done by Ken Shamrock, Kurt Angle and recently Jack Swagger) - believable looking submission hold. Sheamus' Big Boot to the Noggin - I just love seeing that big boot coming. Tag Team Ones: The Doomsday Device: Hawk and Animal and their flying clothesline from the top rope done by Hawk as their opponent was lifted on Animal's shoulders. The Hart Attack - Jim Neidhart had his man in a bearhug and Bret Hart zigzags the ring and nails the opponent with a devastating clothesline. Power and Glory Superplex/Supersplash - the finisher where Hercules suplexed his man off the top rope and Roma dove on the landed opponent The Veg-O-Matic - Midnight Express Finisher where Eaton would hold his opponent near the mat in a bearhug as Lane dove from the top rope across his neck with a leg drop.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWgbBgjE05I Jack Evans' Corkscrew 360 Phoenix Splash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltb11fcuyBA 5 Star Frog Splash- RVD. Always liked how RVD sold this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HIarQzf46k The Pepsi Plunge (Punk's old finisher, one he used in ROH and the independents but probably won't be allowed to do in WWE as it's pretty dangerous looking and it's kind of Triple H's domain I guess - basically like a pedrigree off the top rope) It's actually my understanding that Punk chose to drop it, as it's rough on his knees doing that on a daily basis.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGrswQWOSTU Scorpion Deathlock (aka Sharpshooter) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppQj6CUq0po Cobra Clutch (here is The Big Show's backbreaker verison of it which is awesome) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFCcCyxD_jI Title: Re: Favorite Pro Wrestling Finishers Post by: JaseSF on August 10, 2010, 01:32:35 PM The Pepsi Plunge (Punk's old finisher, one he used in ROH and the independents but probably won't be allowed to do in WWE as it's pretty dangerous looking and it's kind of Triple H's domain I guess - basically like a pedrigree off the top rope) Oh was that the case? Anyways I thought the move looked awesome and really wish he would use it on rare occasions.
