Anyone here old enough to remember Rugged Ronnie Garvin, and the Garvin Stomp? That was the worst finisher in history.
Best and Worst finishers in WWE history
- Thread starter atknsn_04
- Start date
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.

Why are people saying sweet chin music? its a kick..thats it...the canadien destroyer is pretty good dont get me wrong..when i asked this question i ment in the WWE only. That being said...the undertaker has the best and hogan has the worst
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.

St. Louis Cardinals FAN!
I hate Hogan's leg drop and the F-U
My favorite moves are F-5, RKO, and the Angle Slam.

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

Twist of Fate: quite exterme
Hogen: leg drop: unimaginated and easy to do

Samoan Spike: not very exictin and umaga has better moves then that

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?

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.

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.
