Mandible claw. I like when Mankind had that weird glove he used to wear before Mr. Socko but I love Socko more.

Mandible Claw. Has anyone tried it on themselves? Cause it hurts like a SOB if you ever apply real pressure.

Struggling to make an impartial decision because I'm not much of a fan of the Mandible Claw.
Mankind has had success with his move in his early days but I seem to remember it as being more of a teaser than an actual match winner. Much easier for me to remember matches where Bryan has won with the LaBell Lock. With Mankind standing right in front of his opponent with the hold engaged, a counter can be as simple as a kick to the gut or just chomping down.
Wouldn't doubt if I end up in the minority, but I vote for the LaBell Lock.

Apply pressure to the lower jaw is what it always looked like to me. You put the pointer and middle finger under the tongue and apply pressure down. While using your thumb to apply pressure up under your chin. Squeeze. Foley once say it's the only wrestling move you can give yourself.

GTS

Both have a lifting element that will limit the effectiveness on large opponents but the GTS is limited more. Both have setups that can be countered but slipping off the shoulders would be easier than wriggling out of the clutch of a Jackknife. The impact of a GTS is directed at the opponent's face and head, while a powerbomb affects the back, the head/neck area (granted the opponent suffers whiplash upon impact), and knocks the wind out of the opponent all at once.
Going with the Jackknife Powerbomb.

Jackknife is the more devastating move of course but with the GTS belonging to CM Spunk, I easily see his move winning the popularity contest as Nash is much older and less relevant.

NEW Matchup:
Eddie's Frogsplash vs. Ember's Eclipse!
Which is better?
(GTS defeated the Jackknife by a small margin)

The Eclipse certainly has the edge in theatrics. But the Frog Splash has greater range and control, plus provides a lesser chance of botching.
Eddie achieved a higher level of success with the Frog Splash, so that gets my vote.
