So I was watching TNA the other day, and I started realizing how much the frog splash is used. I saw it used in one night by AJ Styles, Christian Cage, and Alex Shelly. And that got me thinking, the frog splash is really overused as a finisher. Let's just look at more wrestlers that have used that move, just off the top of my head: D'Lo Brown, RVD, Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio (occasionally).
I think that the frog splash is one of the most overused finishers. What do you think is the most overused finisher?

The frog splash was only a 2 man move when RVD and Eddie Guerreo used it, when Eddie died it became the "tribute to eddie" move so basically every wrestler uses it now. D'lo's wasn't an exact frog splash.

Spear and DDT's at the top of the list for sure.
As for independents, the Super Kick.

the spear, spine buster, overdrive/playmaker/cool shot, mic check The Playmaker and the Cool Shot aren't the same. The Cool Shot is Carlito's Complete Shot variation. |

Even though it isn't really used as a finisher anymore and doesn't have the impact or meaning it once had, I'd definitely have to say The D.D.T.
Back then, only ONE guy used The D.D.T. and that was Jake "The Snake" Roberts and it was considered a deadly finisher and nobody kicked out of it.
Now, it's your average move that EVERYONE uses and it doesn't have the impact or meaning it had all those years ago.

Id say anythin thats actually a pretty mundane wrestling hold or move, thats then made into this crazy finisher. Examples:
F-U = Firemans carry
STFU = basic hold
Sweet chin music = Super Kick
But also I mean u can see the RKO and Twist of fate are almost identical so thats over used.
The frogsplash is over used...I think if anymore than 2 people have used the finisher ur asking questions.
