Most Impressive Looking finishing move of all time?

Question

Here is my question...what finishing move looks (or looked) the best in wrestling? There are so many to chose from but I would have to go with Diamond Dallas Page's Diamond Cutter. About 13 different ways he could put it on you, each with a style and flair all of its own.
What move do you think looks the best? Best answer (with a decent reason why) gets 10 points.

Answer 1

There are so many cool moves.

Pedigree- The most destructive move by the most brutal wrestler Triple-H. It's got an awesome effect anywhere. In the ring, outside the ring, on top of a hell in a cell cage anywhere. It is a blood move and usually a pedigree is enough to win the match.

Plus, it can bang out of nowhere. you don't even need a position to do the pedigree. Pedigree is longer than moves like RKO and the stunner. But RKO and the stunner weaken only your neck. This weakens your head. Sweet chin music only kicks you, never does enough damage to make blood.

The people's elbow,F-5,Choke slam,Last ride,Spear are also body weakening moves.

In the end, only moves like the pedigree and tombstone will give severe effect to the head. Undertaker delays the tombstone too much. Triple-H makes it quick and painful!

So, i vote for Triple-H's pedigree.

Answer 2

I always loved the Sweet Chin Music. it's simple, yet devastating. You can hear the impact against their face.

I don't know but i like the finishers that can come out of nowhere and just take a second and you know the tide has turned. Like the stunner, Austin could be layed out and jump up and stun the guy and in that second you just know the match is his. Same with RKO/ Diamond cutter and Sweet Chin Music. It just comes out of nowhere. They could run in the ring do it and run out.
You see HBK laying down and the camera goes to the opponent
cheering and then you just see a leg come out of nowhere and hit him in the face. Those are the best.

I hate the finishers that take so much preperation to do. Like the Last Ride. That takes forever.

Answer 3

The Stunner by Stone Cold Steve Austin - especially when applied to Shane McMahon. Shane always looked like he bounced 3-4 feet straight up in the air afterward.

Carlito's Back Cracker looks nasty.

HHH's Pedigree usually looks good because the wrestler takes it right in the face, cuz his arms are locked behind him. I have noticed that he doesn't lock it in as hard has he used to though - probably really hurt a few guys.

Answer 4

The tombstone 'cause it can
A)Make the fans go nuts (not as The people's Elbow)
B)It usually makes Great pins or even KO's
C)Because it's done by the Deadman!
And/Or The Last Ride (The Most Feared Move In WWe)

Answer 5

I agree that the Diamond Cutter is an awsome finnisher but what about the jackhammer slam by Bill Goldberg its such a cool finnisher because of the way he does it also the twist of faith is a great looking finnisher and even the name sounds cool.

Answer 6

The Sharp Shooter, Bret "The Hitman" Hart "The Excellence of Execution" ...but I prefer Shawn Michaels over Hart as a wrestler.

Answer 7

Sweet Chin Music
Stone Cold Stunner

Answer 8

I will have to say the best and most impressive looking finishing move will have to be the......Master Lock. Because no one has broke out of that submissive move and usually when Chris Master locks it he actually makes people to lose consicness because of the extreme pain he puts them in. And he just needs to be behind them to put the submissive move in which makes it very dangerous because it makes it that easier to lock it in.

Answer 9

Stone Cold Stunner announced by JR.

Answer 10

i really thought that billy kidman's shooting star was pretty sweet til a few people got hurt and they banned it. i like big shows new move he does where he gets the opponent in an arm lock and performs a back breaker at the same time then throws them like a rag doll.
