I ended up watching a match between Owen Hart and Matt Hardy the other day and Owen Hart hit a spinning heel kick on Matt Hardy, it was one of the weakest looking ones I had ever seen him hit, but I do not know why, it made me think that this is a move that you never really see these days. Yet in the 90s and even the early 00s, it was a pretty "spectacular" and cool looking move when done right, hell, Edge is doing one on the box for WWF No Mercy on the Nintendo 64! I know that we have way flashier moves these days, but it was a move I always thought looked cool, anyway, what are some wrestling moves that you feel like we just do not see any more and realistic looking punches and kicks do not count  |

There was nothing like a early 90's Piledriver to me. It just hit so much harder than it would these days, but with all the moves you see these days you never see a straight up Piledriver these days.

Doesn't seem like I've seen the Pearl River Plunge since Ahmed except maybe just a couple times.

This is the first to come to mind. And nobody did it better. And The Brain do I get bonus points for the opponent I picked?  |

As stupid as it is I loved when they used to do the spot during a submission where the ref lifts the guy's arm up three times to see if he's still in the fight. I've seen it happen a couple of times in the last few months so I'm happy with it being around still. Same with the test of strength. Silly but works with the right competitors.
The suplex into a hang on the ropes or stun gun I think it's officially called? Hardly see that anymore.
The good ol ear clap and the atomic drop whether inverted or not, were some of my older favorites as well.
