Which finisher used in the WWE is the worst ? Please base your vote off of these three rules:
1. The overall fan reaction to the move.
2. The realism of the move.
3. The move name.
4. The effectiveness of the move.
5. The originality or lack there of.
6. Do not base your vote on your like or dislike of the wrestler who uses it.

The Attitude Adjustment - Crap name, how is landing on you back going to hurt with no force into it ? No creativity, though it does get a reaction ...

The 619.
Rey's setup is just too far-fetched, and sometimes it can knock the lights outta someone, other times they get up two seconds right after just to do a 'SWERVE, FAKEOUT!!!' and catch him when he's coming for a springboard splash.
Other than that- I guess tadpole splash is pretty much a mockery of all things holy.

Zack Ryder's finisher.
Takes way too long to set up, much like the Playmaker.

What's the layout? I'm not even a Cena hater but I'll have to go with the Attitude Adjustment, it's just a Fireman Carry.

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.

Melina's Code Red Skull Crushing Finale
These two are actually decent. I like the Miz's finish

I disagree that the Attitude Adjustment is a bad finisher at all.
The name isn't great but come on, F-U was? No, not really.
And the move obviously could keep someone down for the three count, a lot of the time they opponent is up on Cena's shoulders and before they know they are slammed into the ring mat. It's a decent move.
And then people start praising moves like the RKO, which is in real life very difficult to execute because the opponent needs to be groggy and unbalanced just for Orton to pull them down to the ground by their head. It's easier to get caught by the Attitude Adjustment than the RKO in my view.

I've always hated that as a finisher beyond any other in the timeline of Wrestling finishers. But I thought this thread was about current WWE Superstars' finishers.

Play maker, he should just use the drive by kick as his finisher instead.

I love the move, but if you're talking about realism, the People's Elbow is more ridiculous than the Atomic Leg Drop. I'm not voting for that however, just mentioning it.
I voted for the Playmaker simply because it takes way to long and is so unrealistic that the opponent would just stand their bent over while he taunted, it's just crap.

Who the hell gives the Lie Detector? Or the Layout?
I voted The Playmaker, also. I like MVP but I've always hated that move. When/if he ever turns heel he needs to use something/anything else.
Second place would be Vance Archer's lame reverse DDT!

The People's Elbow is the worst finisher imo.

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.

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.

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).

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.
