why does everyone hate the 619? its the only finisher that goes from the inside to the outside of the ring, he does it around ring posts, its unique

You tubed Canadian Destroyer I see your point!
The Pedigree is my personal fave although I like the Sharpshooter(You had to watch WWf in Brets harts early singles carrer to appericate how great this move was no one broke it till SS 97) Brets/Owens/Beniots version's only.
Hogans Leg drop is the wrost. The Angle slam(has anyone not kicked out of that at a PPV) and the FU are also poor. Although how about Dusty Rhodes Bionic Elbow? That was pretty poor.:wwf:

Worst: FU (just poorly executed, doesn't look like it hurts, might just be poor selling but whatever), Samoan Spike, any of Rey Mysterio's weak finishers, THE WORM.

How can people possibly like the RKO? It's the lamest finisher going. It's like a second rate stunner.
The RKO is actually a cutter not a stunner, a stunner shoves the opponents throat into your shoulder but a cutter smashes their face off the ground.

The RKO is actually a cutter not a stunner, a stunner shoves the opponents throat into your shoulder but a cutter smashes their face off the ground.
To be technical, The Stunner is a form of a Jaw Breaker, as the RKO is a 3/4 Neckbreaker

07-22-2006, 03:39 PM
Best Finisher: The Vertabreaker (once used by Gregory (Shane) Helms in WCW, now used by Homicide in TNA), The Canadian Destroyer, The C-4 (Paul Burchill's finisher), The Green Bay Plunge (Mr. Kennedy's old finisher)
Worst Finisher: Samoan Spike, Masterlock, The Worm, Left Hook (used by Johnny B. Badd and Mark Jindrak), etc.
I think something that people fail to realize about The People's Elbow is that the move wasn't meant to be taken seriously. It seems like it was put out there to parody finishers like Hulk Hogan's Atomic Leg Drop, and it also put over The Rock as the conceited, third-person speaking character that he was.
Give Praise To Jesus
07-22-2006, 03:41 PM
Oh, yes. I agree wholeheartedly with anyone who says that the Powerbomb and DDT are overrated finishers. There was a time in WWE where practically everyone used a finisher that was a variation of one of those moves. It was ridiculous!
jeremiah_young
07-22-2006, 04:34 PM
Worst
Cena's FU (IE Fireman's Carry....normal wrestling moves aren't finishers.)
Warrior's Big Slash
The Samoan Spike
Benjamin's T-Bone (see Cena)
Hogan's Leg Drop
Peoples Elbow
The Worm
The Best
Mandible Claw
Tombstone from Taker
Big Show's Choke Slam is always wicked on smaller guys
DDP's Diamond Cutter
the Cross face
the Sharpshooter
The Razor's Edge
Stunner
Widow Peek
Shooting Star
the F5 was good.

Yeah but the thing is like the Worm...he actually pinned people witht he elbow
Rowheart
07-22-2006, 04:39 PM
The People´s Elbow is an "Faint Leg Drop Elbow Drop". So like you said Give Praise to Jesus it's an parody on Hulk Hogans finisher. You see when The Rock lifts up the leg just before the elbow drop? It's him going for an legdrop before he falls down into an elbow drop.

How are the worm and the People's Elbow any different. And yes, the elbow WAS meant to be taken seriously. He even used it as his finisher, including (IIRC) against Hogan at Wrestlemania.
Give Praise To Jesus
07-22-2006, 05:49 PM
At least The Rock would usually hit a pretty powerful move before he went for The People's Elbow - usually either Rock Bottom or a spinebuster. As for Scotty 2 Hotty, The Worm was usually preceded by a weak-looking face plant. Does anyone honestly believe that move would leave the person incapacitated long enough for Scotty to hit The Worm?

Get the fuck, the RKO is a shit hard move to pull off, id like to see you jump and have your back horizontal about 6 foot in the air. It can be done anywhere, anytime. compare it to the diamond cutter or the stone cold stunner. wins hands down. hardest of all three to do. Just watch orton vs benoit summerslam 04 or even better the following nite on raw. Perfect RKO
darcoyle
07-22-2006, 07:07 PM
Yeah its a form of jawbreaker your right, the RKO is a jumping cutter .
Its a diamond cutter like DDP did only orton jumps in the air when he does it. It was triple h and flairs idea cause they knew randy could jump high. Orton says that himself on randyortonweb.com in an interview you can download that he did on english radio

07-22-2006, 10:13 PM
i really can't believe all the hate for the FU. i bet it's just because it's cena's finisher. if it was someone elses you guys wouldn't even mention it.
realblackhart
07-23-2006, 12:13 AM
Best (some of the best) total elimination,tazmission sharpshooter, chicken wing, shooting star press mandible claw before socko, impaler, bonzai drop (how do you get up from that), The Vertebreaker (i wish they' let helms use it, he's banned fromusing it)
Worst: the thumb by Umaga, the claw from kergan, american dream (elbow to head), all of the Ultimate Warrior's moves, the gorrila press slam and the splah after it, Whoopee Cushion, Delphin clutch , the goon's move (he was to beat up to come back in the ring he could only win by countout), master lock, torture rack, crush's heart punch
J-Slim
07-23-2006, 01:29 AM
The best Finisher - TombStone - The UnderTaker
The worst Finisher - The Worm - Scotty 2 Hotty
Best-Taker's Tombstone, Last Ride, Goldberg's Spear, Jackhammer, HHHs Pedigree, Burchill's Walking The Plank (C4), Kennedy's Green Bay Plunge, Lesnar's F-5, Benoit's Crossface, Angle's Angle Lock, Jericho's Lionsault
Even though it's not a TNA forum-also gotta include AJ Styles' Styles Clash, Chris Daniels-Angel Wings and of course Petey Williams' Candian Destroyer.
Worst-Umaga's Samoan Spike, Khali's Chop to head, Cena's F-U, Hogan's Leg Drop, Mark Henry's World's Strongest Slam, Anyone with a pumphandle slam finisher.
Magicians perform illusions not tricks. A trick is something a whore does for money.
J-Slim
07-23-2006, 02:28 AM
Yeah I forgot about Jerichos Lion Sault, Lesnars F-5, and the Ankle Lock but the TombStone is the best.
If U really use Umaga's Samoan Spike it may kill you cuz he makes the thumb hit the center of the throat and could cause damage to your voice and maybe kill you. But Umaga doesn't use it all tha way I guess. Scotty 2 Hottys Finisher is still the worsest.

No It's not because it's Cenas move it's because it's a crap move. Has anyone mentioned the STFU in this thread? to my knowledge no.The one thing that annoys me more than the "Cena sucks" posters who refuse to give a good reason why they don't like him,is posters like you who hear anything bad about Cena,refuse to listien to whats actully being said and just accuse people of jumping on the bandwagon. I am a huge fan of Kurt Angle yet I listed the Angle slam as one of the worst finishers. The FU is basicly a simplyfied version of the angle slam. It is a less devastating move than the samon drop,which no one loses to. This is probably why WWE gave him the STFU because the FU is such a poor finisher. It's now used as a set up. that's why.:wwf:
Ragin'_Bull03
07-23-2006, 05:50 AM
The best finisher is the ston cold stunner.....its fast effective and can be hit at any point in the match in an instant.
the two worst are THE WORM scotty too hotty does its so freaking stupid he does all this bullshit (while the opponent just sits there) then all he he does is elbow them!!

07-23-2006, 02:33 PM
The worst move is the Samoan Spike. It is just stupid, and Umaga is a tool! But the worm does come close! Bring back 3 minute warning! Id have to say that the best move is the F5. It just really stands out and as an impact, not saying that there arent other that dont, I just feel that its the best. Other cool ones are the pedigree and the sweet chin music. I also liked the Sky High and the Lo-Down, GO D-LO!

hey, first time posting here, and need to figure out how this message board works they all a bit different so burr with me. as you can see I am not the best typer. LOL! I'm on AOL's "smackdown" and "raw" message boards as well. I am a "say it as I see it" guy. like I'm posting this on the day "great American bash" is, and I'll flat out say this is a major disappointment. Two of the most hyped up matches has been redone. Batista VS Kennedy? who f@*&ing cares about that match? and after the storyline with Khali only knowing what a punjabi prison match is now his not even in it? c'on WWE is slipping a bit on this PPV. Well hate to cut it short, but people are messaging me. You got what im saying about GAB. There's a lot of topics I like to get to, but have to be later, and need to properly introduce myself bye for now.

i'd like to hear your answer. so what if i'm accusing people of jumping on the cena hate bandwagon? is it not true? i'm pretty sure it is.

john cena is one of those guys with great heart for what he does, like guerrero and benoit and angle, i do admit he isnt the best wrestler, but it seems like this day in age WWE doesnt care if you can wrestler as long as they can fight too

Worst: the goon's move (he was to beat up to come back in the ring he could only win by countout)
Remember The Viking? He also would only win by countout for weeks, it seemed. He would pick his opponents up in atomic drop position and throw them over the top rope, and then he would get his hand raised after the count to ten. Once he changed his name to The Berzerker (never heard an explanation for the name change), he started pinning people after a quick standing powerslam.

I never understood how anyone can say the jackhammer is a good move.. And the f-5 is nothing like the fu. The f-5 acutally hurts especially being done by brock lesnar.SCM is not a bad finisher .Ive always said the 619 was plain stupid (especially when i saw big show get nailed by it and get knocked out)And yes the STFU is horrible for god sakes he doesn't even lock the hands when he does it...No comment on edges spear

i'd like to hear your answer. so what if i'm accusing people of jumping on the cena hate bandwagon? is it not true? i'm pretty sure it is.
Ok for the 100th time this is why Cena is so unpopular.His matches are repeatitive. He gets beaten up for the majority of the match then comes back with an FU and/or a STFU from nowhere to win. He is constantly up "against all odds" and "somehow" comes though to win.This is a formula that worked very well with Hogan in the late 80's and early nineties.But this is 2006, alot of WWE fans are those who watched it back then and have grown up and seen the change's the "attitude" era brought. This type of match/angle is aimed at kids and for the more mature fans it doesn't work any more.Also when he came in with the rapper gimmick he was an anti hero(in the stone cold mould)and it worked,he got over and turned face. Then slowley they watered down his character untill he became an ass kisser to the fans(or chain gang) and a thug in name only. I will add this has started to change of late and I hope it continues(please god give the guy a heel turn)!His matches did not give him a chance to show his talent(which I believe he has).Also nowadays fans get bored quickly and the guy was champ(bar two weeks) for over a year and it got old. Dude your more than entitled to your opinon but don't be blind to the facts.:wwf:

sweet chin music is quite freakin lame...ive always hated it.
paul roma and hercules (power and glory) had an awesome finisher. herc would super plex you off the ropes while roma came off the oppsite corner with a body splash pin.
one of the worst was when sgt slaughter made a fist and drove his knuckle into someones temple for the submission....weeeeeak.
demolitions windmill finisher was awesome too.
best:
the ddt is so under-appreciated. besides the figure four leglock, name another move that even comes close to being the "granddaddy of finishers"?
tombstone. not since jakes ddt has a move gotten fans that excited. it made me cringe when i first saw it.
stunner...another move that revitalized the art of finishers.
pedigree is another of the 5 great finishers
and the last is the chokeslam, especially when the giant did it during his wcw days when he would go real high and go all the way down with his victim falling forward and landing on his knees! sadly this move has lost alot of its intimidation and hype.
best: rko, pedigree, sweet chin music, f5, goldbergs spear and jackhammer, test's big boot and tombstone
worst: samoan spike, khalis 2hand chokeslam, and hogans leg drop

marktoe thats pretty much all right except tombstone should be on there
everybody seems to think Triple H's pedigree is one of the best, but the version he uses nowadays pales in comparison to the one he used when he was doing the Snob gimmick, it was just plain scary he would always drop his opponents on their neck.
the very best finisher I have ever seen next to the Last Ride is the Tongan Deathgrip, if anyone gets caught in that one no matter if it is wrestler, boxer, martial artist or ultimate fighter, the guy isn't going absolutely anywhere I loved when Haku-Meng used it, my own throat would hurt for hours after he applied it F%CK the Samoan Spike, Tongan Deathgrip Rules!!!
HBK_ROCKS01
09-24-2006, 04:49 PM

yea the samon spike does suck but in reality in would hurt like shit and why did lashely drop his dominator. His current power slam finisher is so lame, before whenver other ppl did it it never got a pin and now he starts and he wins with it....just shows how wwe keeps screwing up

hogans leg drop is awesome, the worst move is that gay thing umage does, the samoan spike or whatever, and another would be the mick kick, no offense to the beautiful mickie james, and the best moves would have to be the tombstone and the diamond cutter. i like the pedigree, but diamond cutter is way better for some reason.

Best without a doubt is the stone cold stunner! It comes out of nowhere, you never knew it hit you! Fast and deadly, nothing was or will ever be better! SCSA FOR LIFE!

Worst:
Mark Jindraks Right Hook
Umagas Samoan Spike
Hogans Leg Drop
Styles Clash (a bit bland)
The Stroke
Kevin Nashs Jack-knife;
Now I think this merits some explanation. To me, it always looked like he had them in the powerbomb position, then lost interest and dropped them, thus they landed on their head and he looked like he had done nothing. Finishers should require effort.
Best:
Canadian Destroyer
Big Shows Chokeslam (I cringe everytime someone receives it)
Shawn Michaels 'Sweet Chin Music'
Undertakers Tombstone Piledriver
Tests Big Boot/JBLs Clothesline from Hell;
Another one that merits explanation. I have included these together because they were such quick finishers and they appeared form nowhere with such force that you often looked shocked that they had just happened. The impact of them always sounded immense and you could imagine them hurting where some finishers (Hogans Leg Drop) just looked bland.

Voltaire
10-22-2006, 02:10 PM
We are saying Sweet chin Music because the impact of it on someones jaw is something you can physically feel when you watch it. If you are really hyped and Shawn Michaels hits it, you feel yourself holding your jaw. Its not so much the move as it is the anticipation of the move.

As far as WWE moves go:
Worst:
Anything Hulk Hogan does
Pedigree (Kid Kash found out how to do this so it actually looks cool/painful)
Batista Bomb (Batista needs to talk to Liger to do this one right)
FU (I'm not even going to start)
People's Elbow
Best:
Crippler Crossface (Benoit looks like he's actually trying to tear off heads)
Sliced Bread #2 (unique move that actually startled me the first time I saw it)
London's 450 splash (Perfectly executed, unlike Juvi's sloppy attempts
Rock Bottom

Edge's Spear is the worst

10-23-2006, 11:09 AM
Best: unpettier, tombstone, twist of fate
Worst: hogen leg drop, FU. samoan spike
Unpettier: hard to do and visually cool
Tombstone: always finish the match and untertaker is a legend
Twist of Fate: quite exterme
Hogen: leg drop: unimaginated and easy to do
FU: no skills needed to do
Samoan Spike: not very exictin and umaga has better moves then that

best is deff the swanton bomb and tombstone and i always loved that piledriver owen hart did i think they banned it tho
the worse is either kahlis chop or umagas thumb hit or w/e also when the undertaker had that stupid hart punch back in wcw when he was mean mark that was stupid too

THe Stunner and Twist of Fate. The stunner would just come out of no where then, bang. Gone. twist of fate is a cool looking stunner or DDT, whatever it is Hot. Sweet Chin Music would be on their, but I hate that name. What a bout the MACHO MAN elbow drop. Super fly Cross body. I cannot decide. Oh the pain and horror
The worst, the Leg Drop or Andre the Giants Elbow.

Alright...lemme see.
Best: Diamond Cutter, Stunner, (no one will agree with this one) The Widow's Peak
Worst: Hogan Legdrop, People's Elbow, RKO
Explanations:
Diamond Cutter: DDP did that move all sorts of different ways and it could just pop up out of nowhere and end a match.
Stunner: Didn't matter who you were, you'd wind up getting one if you were in the ring with Stone Cold, and you didn't get up from it for a bit.
Widow's Peak: It's a cool looking move, and it looks like it hurts like hell.
Hogan legdrop: It's a freakin legdrop.
People's Elbow: Wow, he ran across the ring twice and fell on a guy! There was nothing to this move save for a bunch of showy running and arm movements. Charisma, not power, made this move.
RKO: Diamond Cutter, but attributed to a crappy wrestler and done in the same stale way every time he does it. Can you tell that I don't like Randy Orton?

10-23-2006, 05:11 PM
I don't think the Peoples Elbow was a finisher, cause Rocks finisher was The Rock Bottom (which was weak, but somewhat exciting), I think it is just a signature move.
I agree with you that the widows peak is a great finisher.
Best: In my mind I have no doubt that it is the C4/Canadian Destroyer. Simply amazing, and I still have trouble comprehending how it works.
Worst: Hogan Legdrop, bar none. Seriously, wtf? Maybe it wasn't as dumb when he first started using it. You also have to include weak moves like Maven using a drop kick, that was dumb.

10-23-2006, 05:18 PM
Worst- F-U (RIPOFF OF F-5)
You should go back and watch a video of the F-5, and then watch a video of the F-U. I'm not defending Cena, but look at them. The only similar thing is picking them up on the shoulders. If anything, the F-U is more of a play off of the Death Valley Driver. Seriously.
Also, I'd like to add the Masterlock to my list, because it's nothing more than a full freaking nelson. That's got to be one of the stupidest things ever.

Worst Tag: Cool Elbow Drop (Too Cool)

Ok for the 100th time this is why Cena is so unpopular.His matches are repeatitive. Dude your more than entitled to your opinon but don't be blind to the facts.:wwf:
I don't like him because I don't like his personality.

10-23-2006, 06:16 PM
Hogans leg drop is far and away the worst finisher i've seen.
My best would be:Stunner, Macho Mans flying elbow, and the Scorpion Death Lock/Sharpshooter.
brownf32
10-23-2006, 08:10 PM
angle's ankle lock would have to be the best...how many people have ever made the undertaker tap out? only one...angle
papa shango's shoulder breaker. the whole gimmick was terrible and the finisher was even worse.

best:
the unique ones are the best, eg pedigree, ankle lock, brock's f5, and i liked paul london's 450 splash when he used to do it, also mr.kennedy's original finished from the corner was awesome. carlito's 'backcracker' looks cool aswell.
worst:
overused moves, eg spear, powerbomb (although it can be good depending on situation/wrestler), the samoan spike is just stupid, hogan leg drop, and the 619 is really annoying coz it looks really bad when they sell it.

10-25-2006, 02:34 AM
I prefer the finishers that can come out of nowhere like the stunner(whippersnapper) or the rko(diamond cutter)
I don't like those that require help like the acid drop
for submission moves I like the pure wrestling holds like the crossface or figure four, no sleeper holds please

Cena F-U and not because it's Cena
it's just a firemans carry
Hogan's leg drop can be a badass move IF he drop the leg right on the neck.

If we're doing tag moves, I'm going to have to say that the best ones are...
Cryme Tyme's tandem neckbreaker
3D
The Doomsday Device
Worst...
well, I like most tag team moves.
Also, not defending Cena, just using the argument that he is repetitive as an excuse to exhibit my dislike for Orton. Orton is just as repetitive. Also, I think he's desperate for hugs because of that stupid stance he does.

the crucifix power bomb on TNA (HERNANDEZ) and THE FINISHER OF HOMICIDE THE GRINGO KILLER
he said worst finishers in the WWE.
not TNA, but my choice for the best is sweet chin music.
my choice for worst is khali's deadly chop.

11-04-2006, 02:40 AM
Once again, if this thread continues just to be a listing thread.. Im either going to close or move this to bar room... Atleast add that slightest bit of reason.. For example..
Best - Tests Big Boot.. I kno its an original move, but I always liked it.. Made a nice noice, tho I know its him smacking him smacking his hand of his thigh.. It also seems like he really does almost knock there heads off.
Worste - FU - Can you say Firemans Carry/DVD combo? It just looks horrible.. Definatly worste Finisher ever imo...
See, is that really hard?
Luther_Hull FTW
11-04-2006, 10:37 AM
the f-u may be a crap move (it's awful to be honest) but it's an easy move to do in high risk situations (through tables of cages or whatever) that's why i think it's used, it's very safe.
D-Generation-X
11-05-2006, 12:28 AM
the best finishers I would say is the Pedigree and Tombstone Piledriver. the pedigree basically gives you a wrestling mat facelift and the tombstone, when executed like it should be, is an awesome and powerful move with your head bouncing off of the mat.
The worst finisher I think is Vito's armlock with the opponents head up the dress. That's just f*cking disgusting. That's probably the worst gimmick next to King Booker.

11-22-2006, 01:03 AM
Best finisher is the Chokeslam because it woul actully hurt the wrestler and it also looks the coolest.
the WORST finisher ever is mark jindrak's punch to the head, like come on it's a bloody punch, there are like 50 every match yet 1 punch knocks them out

11-22-2006, 11:31 PM
Best: Pedigree, FU, Stunner, People's Elbow, Batista Bomb, Tombstone, Figure 4 leg lock, Sweet Chin mUsic
Worst: RKO, Mandible Claw, Master Lock, 619 (I hate how everytime the wrestlers stay on the ropes and then when kicked, magically get up so he can drop a dime) Anything Eugene tries to duplicate
Dyren
11-22-2006, 11:51 PM
Best: Ankle lock is the best submission move, DDT and carlito's backcracker are extremely painful if done right,and a piledriver can be devastating(just as stone cold)
worst:Big wiggle (do i REALLY need an explanation for this one?), Booker T Scissors kick-way too easy to avoid and doesnt appear to hurt much, FU - weak desperation move, too easy to escape, not that effective

11-23-2006, 12:07 AM

Best:
Pedigree(It made HHH a 10 time World/WWE Champion and it looks cool)
Tombstone(A lot of superstars fell victim of this move and looks painful)
TKO(Stronger than Orton's RKO)
F-5(Very innovative to say the least)
Razor's Edge(One of the best looking versions of the powerbomb IMO)
Crippler Crossface(You need the Jaws Of Life to remove Benoit from the hold)
Sharpshooter(Very great submision hold that looks painful)
Shooting Star Splash(Great looking aerial move)
Worst:
F-U(Stronger version of a firemans carry thats all)
Ankle Lock(He only grabs your foot WOW)
Spear(Used by way to many Superstars it should not be a finisher)
Mizzard of Oz(Come on Miz u could think better than that.....maybe)
Bionic Elbow(Need I say more)
Sleeper Hold(It was considered deadly in the past but 2day evry1 uses it)
Leg Drop(Same as Sleeper hold)
Brain Chop(Boring finisher for a boring giant)

You all forget that a finisher is supposed to have an impact and a submission finisher has to hurt like hell, so with this I'd say:
Best: Stunner,Diamond Cutter, ego trip, edgecution, tombstone, C-4, sweet shin music, angle lock, crippler crossface, 5 star frog splash, screwdriver(Scott Stiner), pedigree, testdrive, etc.
Worst: FU, Worm, hogan legdrop, samoan spike, powerbomb, masterlock, swanton bomb

ok you can't say that you would be able to necessarily lift your shoulder or kick out just because your throught hurt. If a guy Umaga's size really jammed his thumb into your throught that could cause serious damage and you wouldnt be worrying about kicking out. And for the guy who mentioned Tyson Tomko's boot as a crappy finisher, if a guy his size kicked you in your head I'm pretty sure you would be knocked out, because tell me the difference between Tomko's boot and the Sweet Chin Music, there is really no difference except for the way your body is positioned when kicking the opponent. But to answer the question I'd have to say Canadian Destroyer, C4, Vertebreaker/Grinco Killa, Black Hole Slam
and worst would be F-U, The Worm
