A move that a wrestler does...

[Guest Monday Night Jericho]

Basically the idea is to name a move that a wrestler does better than any other wrestler. For example:

 

Benoit - powerbomb

Liger - SSP

Roundhouse to face (gamengiri) - Kawada

Burning hammer - Kobashi

[Guest Sandman9000]

SSP: Paul London > Liger

[Guest Steviekick]

DDT : Raven

[Guest CoreyLazarus416]

Phoenix Splash - LowKi

Roaring Elbow - Masato Tanaka

[LivingLegendGaryColeman 0]

Yokozuna = chinlock

[Guest Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye]

Sharpshooter - Bret Hart.

 

Moonsault - Essa Rios.

[Guest godthedog]

Yokozuna = chinlock

no. yokozuna = vulcan nerve pinch.

 

ricky steamboat: armdrag

lariat: stan hansen

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

Ric Flair - Figure four

Ricky Steamboat - Flying Crossbody

2 Cold Scorpio - moonsault

 

asai moonsault - Ultimo Dragon

SSP - Paul London

[MooreMark 0]

Spear-Rhyno

Walk-Kevin Nash

[Guest CanadianChick]

Snap Suplex-Benoit

Top rope hurricanrana-Rey Mysterio

[Guest KanadianKrusty]

Enziguri: Antonio Inoki

Spinebuster: Arn Anderson

[Guest BobBacklundRules]

DDT : Raven

Jake Roberts DDT > Raven DDT

 

 

well... not any more

[Guest Coffin Surfer]

Ric Flair - Figure four

 

Sorry but the Destoryer used the Figure Four way better than Flair. When the Destoryer slapped on the Figure Four, the match was over in a heart beat, when Flair did it was rest time(at least in his later matches).

 

2 Cold Scorpio - moonsault

 

As much as I hate him, Keji Mutoh probably had the best Moonsault. He would really snap back, and come down HARD, no wonder the guy's crippled.

 

lariat: stan hansen

 

With the excpetion of maybe the Destroyer's Figure Four, the Western Lariat was probably the most protected and over finisher in All Japan.

 

Still, I swear Jumbo threw the stiffest Lariat out of anybody, even more brutal than Hansen's.

[Guest TonyJaymzV1]

SSP: Paul London, definently.

Punch: Chuck Plaumbo, I'm serious, He throws a great punch.

Shining Wizard: CM Punk. I haven't seen Mutoh's yet, but from what I've seen he's got the best.

[Guest razazteca]

Half Crap - Lance Storm

Boston Crap - Rick Martel

Backslide - Satanico

[Guest Lord of The Curry]

Powerbomb: Benoit

Moonsault: Kenta Kobashi

Belly to Belly: Gary Albright or Owen Hart

[Mrnoitaull 0]

Elbow drop=Dusty

Punch=Billy Gunn

sell a DDT=RVD

Neckbreaer=Hurricaine

[Guest Lord of The Curry]

You've obviously never seen the beauty of Dr. Death Steve Williams right-hand jabs if you think Billy Gunn has the best punches.

[Rendclaw 0]

Dynamite Kid's snap suplex > Chris Benoit's snap suplex, though not by much these days.

 

RVD sells DDT's and Piledrivers better and anyone.

 

Splash - Vader

Powerslam (tie) - Davey Boy Smith/Ted DiBiase/Dr. Death

Belly-to-Belly - Magnum T.A.

[Guest wildpegasus]

Nip Up-Dynamite Kid

 

Belly to Belly Suplex off ropes: Owen Hart

 

Snap Suplex-Depends on the day. Sometimes it's Dynamite, sometimes its Benoit

 

Moonsault-Tough to say. I'd go with Scorpio, Toyota, Angle, Kobashi or Muta

 

Powerbomb-Benoit. Check out Benoit and Eddy's first Nitro match for the best powerbomb ever.

 

Small Package Barry Whindam or Edge

You're contradicting your own criteria. You claim that the Destroyer's Figure Four was better than Flair's because it was booked better, yet you claim that Jumbo's lariat is better than Hansen's because it looks clearer. Which one is it, overness or attractiveness?

 

Speaking of which; Akira Taue - Chokeslam

[Guest Nevermortal]

Nick Gage gives the stiffest running bootscrape ever. Ohtani may have done it first, but Gage just fucking TAGS the guy with it. He even does it through glass sometimes.

[Guest croweater]

Ric Flair's figure 4 is TERRIBLE.

I hate it so much because he always puts it on the wrong leg. It is Ric's only MAJOR flaw in my eyes because the psychology is there until he places the figure four on the wrong leg and makes a picky little smark like me think he's crap....... no wonder he never wins with it.

 

Rock's sharpshooter > Bret Hart's

[Guest godthedog]

Speaking of which; Akira Taue - Chokeslam

that's not funny, dammit.

[Guest razazteca]

Mr Perfect running Snapmare move that he does when the opponet is sitting and then runs from behind and flips to do the move.

 

I never liked the running powerslam finisher ever.

Sorry but the Destoryer used the Figure Four way better than Flair.  When the Destoryer slapped on the Figure Four, the match was over in a heart beat, when Flair did it was rest time(at least in his later matches). 

 

2 Cold Scorpio - moonsault

When done correctly a Figure Four pretty much looks the same, so it's kind of hard to add a unique style too it while still keeping it a real Figure Four so you have to use a different criteria. Because of the lack of varitey, the Figure Four really isn't even a good move for this type of topic.

 

Still, Flair never did it correctly(wrong leg), so Destroyer still beats him in that category.

 

Oh, and I like how you use booking as an excuse for Flair's laziness rather than simply stating that the Destroyer used the Figure Four better and cared more about it's cred.

 

You will also notice that I didn't challenge the Hansen pick, but simply stated Jumbo's was nastier looking IMO.

 

And when Taue didn't hold back, his Nodowa could be quite brutal. Have you ever seen the 95 Champion Carnival when he nearly dumped Kawada on his head with one, or nearly drove Kobashi threw the ring with it? Or even 6/95 when he busts out an Americanized Chokeslam at the end and gets big air with it.

 

Still Vadar had the best the Nodowa Otoshi I've ever seen.

[Guest godthedog]

i prefer eddie's powerbomb to benoit's. does that make me weird?

[Guest HungryJack]

I always dug Vader's moonsault, not the best, but possibly the most impressive due to his size.

[Guest Ray]

I personally love Kurt Angle's moonsault.

[TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0]

Moonsault I'd give to Mutoh. But close.

 

Sharpshooter - definetely Bret Hart

 

Ace Crusher/Diamond Cutter/Stunner - all those variations I still like DDP's the best. He hits it out of nowhere and you know either the match is over or we have a close near fall.

 

Power walking - Kevin Nash

 

Headbutt - Andre the Giant. Maybe not the stiffest or prettiest but it was ALWAYS sold as instant death. Everyone from Hogan down would go down from one headbutt. Booking I know but still impressive.

 

Might as well say it...

 

Hogan - Leg Drop
