"Oh my god! Here comes Vance Archer's lame reverse DDT!"
My vote before even opening this thread was The Playmaker. It works for "side-effect" kind of move ala Matt Hardy, but a finisher? I don't know about that. He hardly ever hits the thing anyhow.

What gets me about Vance Archer's reverse snap ddt is that the spinning slam he uses to set it up looks so much more effective. Hell, I'd be happy if he brought back the Texas Towerbomb.

What the hell is R-truth's "finishing" move? I hate anything he does, so that.  No, its called an opinion. |

I still can't figure out why the Playmaker is supposed to hurt. It looks so freaking weak.

What's Miz's named? It just seems unbelievable, as does the Playmaker. But at least with the Playmaker, there's not an awkward reverse sweep involved. Any punches, elbows, knee, fist and legdrops are just insanely unreal endings to matches (unless someone can SELL it). Being slammed on your face would hurt pretty damn bad, imo. |

The playmaker I love mvp but he should use the rock bottom/ bookend cause it would fit with him, I also think the fu should be gone and cena get a new finisher

The RKO. You get your ass slammed and driven into the mat the entire match. But lightly following randy orton to the ground and landing on your face and stomach is so devestating you get pinned.
Lets put it this way. You Remember when Flair wrestled and would sometimes randomly just drop face first on the mat.
The RKO is exactly that, only with the akward chance to whisper sweet nothings in Ortons ear on the way down.

Zack Ryder's finisher. Takes way too long to set up, much like the Playmaker. It does take a while to set up, but it's pretty original, and the fact that it references Saved by the Bell is a win alone. |

Regals knee trembler.
1. The overall fan reaction to the move. They don't realise its a finnisher half the time.
2. The realism of the move. Its not realistic wrestlers kick out of knees all the time. Wrestlers have kicked out of knee drops too the head why would this do more damage?
3. The move name. The knee trembler? Sounds more like a disease old people get.
4. The effectiveness of the move. Very rarely gets the win often takes 2 or 3 of them.
5. The originality or lack there of. People have been using knees for years. Probably 30+ years.

Worst finisher? Great Khali's head squeeze.
Anyone can do it and it's up to the person receiving it to sell it!

The problem with Hulk's finisher is that a kick to the face, 3 punches to the head, and a leg drop are all things that are used regularly in a regular match. If we are debating realism, then how is it possible that Undertaker can punch, kick, and leg drop his opponette several times in a match, yet when Hulk does it (after some ridiculous show boating) it's a deal sealer. So you use The Undertaker to debate realism? lol No offense but I think the Undertaker has done more to make Wrestling look fake than anyone else in the history of the sport. Uh, it's because he KNOWS how to be safe in that ring, and take care of his co-workers, UNLIKE some people. Anyway, to answer the question, I'd have to say the Skull Crushing Finale. I just don't like the move. Can't see that a reverse russian leg sweep ends a match. |

After thinking a little bit more, I'm surprised no one has mentioned Hogan's Leg Drop yet. It's a kick to the face.....and a leg drop. Undertaker does this same thing Mid Match sometimes. And don't try to tell me that "Hulkin' Up" is a part of the finisher, because that just makes it even worst. Well Hulking up is a part of the finisher. 1. Hogan takes the best that his opponent has to offer, which obviously would wind the opponent and put him at a psychological disadvantage. 2. Hogan gives his opponent 3 adrenaline filled fists to the dome. 3. Tosses his stunned opponent into the ropes for a big 300 pound boot to the face. 4. Depending on the situation he slams his opponent down to the mat with authority. 5. Then he hits the ropes and comes down across his opponents chest with a 300 pound leg-drop. 6. Hogan then covers his opponent and it's a wrap. I don't see whats so bad about it.
My vote for worst finisher would be Kurt Angles ankle lock. He never worked the ankle then just puts it on and it's a wrap. Umm, the ankle lock hurts like hell after a matter of seconds if it's locked in properly, I don't think the ankle needs a lot of working before that move does some damage. |

What purpose do all of Angle's suplexes serve if he is going to end a match with an ankle lock out of the blue? |

What purpose do all of Angle's suplexes serve if he is going to end a match with an ankle lock out of the blue? Simple, in case he goes for the angle slam instead. The ankle locks is just a great move to catch you off guard or to just slap on when the opponent's just laying there resting themselves. |

What purpose do all of Angle's suplexes serve if he is going to end a match with an ankle lock out of the blue? Seriously? You know absolutely nothing do you? Let me explain to you that the objective of a match is to wear your opponent down and eventually pick them off with a pinfall or a submission. Angle uses suplexes to wear down his opponent, preventing them from gaining momentum and taking away their ability to fight back. In wrestling, that is called... wrestling.  Then, when he locks in the Angle Lock, the opponent doesn't have energy to get out of the hold, making every second more painful for them, eventually leading to them tapping out with no will to continue. This is called... a submission! Moral of my post... think before you post. |
