Has There Ever Been A Worse Finisher Than...

[Murmuring Beast 0]

Henry's new finisher should be the Heat Killer. It would involve him taking out a briefcase and repeatedly signing a ten year contract over the face of his opponent.

Cena does the Protoplex now?

[Guest Breetai]

The stomach claw.

[Guest PowerPB13]

They should rename the Pedigree the Heat Regainer...

 

...but that would imply that HHH had heat to begin with.

I don't mind Henry's finisher. It seems realisitic, even if it's boring. But at least it seems realistic, unlike the Acid Drop/Dudley Dog or some dumb move like that which requires help from the victim to pull it off.

The Bushwackers battering ram is the worst ever.......period.

Outback Jack's Boomerang

Wasn't that a lariat to the back of the head?

 

What's wrong with that (other than Kenta Kobashi & Stan Hansen not being the ones to throw said larait)?

Kinda like that.

 

He would clothesline his opponent normally. Then, as they were getting up, he'd clothesline them again, but this time from behind.

Face Crush (when he was "Kona Crush") used that ridiculous Cranium Crush.

 

I've used the word "crush" far to many times in this post.

Actually, that's a good finisher.

 

I've put some people on my wrestling team in it before, and made them scream in pain.

 

They had a headache the rest of the day after that.

Hacksaw Jim Duggan had a monopoly on crap finishers. Not only was there the 3 Point Stance mentioned before, but also the "Old Glory Kneedrop" which he used in WCW. Also Loch Ness used an elbow drop as a finish, but then again, he was so damn fat it was all he could do.

It may look stupid but have somebody do it to you, it hurts like hell.

 

The Berserker had the worst finisher ever, Gorilla Press Slams his opponent to the outside and has them counted out. In theory he could never win a title.

But in theory also, he should have won both Royal Rumbles he was in, as that was his specialty.

The heart punch has actually been responsible for killing a guy. I remember reading in some wrestling publication (don't remember the name) That in the 1960's a promoter got in the ring with a japanese wrestler he'd just hired. The wrestler used the heart punch, and due to the guy's weak heart he actaully had a heart attack in the ring.

[Guest Trivia247]

I suppose you can assume from that crappy move that the Slam includes a auto 450 Plus Splash with his follow through... that seems to be a little more devastating than say....

 

 

 

The Peoples Elbow..

[Guest JMA]

I gotta go with The Worm.

[The Tino Standard 0]

Isn't the heart punch outlawed in 38 states?

[Guest Ghettoman]

I hated Orton's overdrive. Just how did that hurt the guy again!?

 

Oh and my dad pitched to Crush in a "celebrity" softball game in Hawaii. He was a "star" pitcher at the time in his coed softball league, and his team played a game again various hawaiian "celebrities". I never believed him until I found out he went by Kona Crush at one time, and since he lived in Kailua, Kona it seemed too logical not to believe.

[USC Wuz Robbed! 0]

Talking about Crush as in Bryan Adams?

[Guest wildpegasus]

The people's elbow is by far the worse finisher. Even the King makes fun of it. Of course, it's meant to be a joke but that still doesn't make the move any better.

Ding, ding, ding...we have a winner.

 

God that was awful.

[LooseCannon25 0]

Iactually liked HBK's teardrop suplex....

 

MY vote for weakest finisher is LEx Luger's loaded forearm bash....pathetic

[SinToxic 0]

Didnt Scott Steiner used to use some sorta Falcon Arrow Brainbuster years ago or was it only in WCW/NWO Revenge for N64?

 

Kobashi does it but inverted and right into a pin.

 

Henry's finisher should be bearhug to bell-to-belly suplex, it looks mean when done right after the bearhug.

The Steiner Screwdriver...a move only the real Scott Steiner could pull off.

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

Lets not forget Andre The Giants primary move...the Sitdown Splash (or in Bad News Browns case, the SHIT-down splash)

 

And the half-assed underhook suplex.

 

And an elbow drop.

The Clothesline from Hell...

Ah, but that wasn't their finisher...it was the setup for their double gutbuster.

 

Also pretty bad, but not as much.

[JHawk 0]

None of these top Salvadore Bellomo's finisher...

 

...laying down flat on your back while the referee counts to three.

 

Actually, wasn't Bellomo's finisher a clothesline or something? I've only ever seen him win with a high cross body or a rollup, and it was never sold as a finisher.

[Guest deadbeater]

You want Mark Henry to turn his slam into a full Power Slam? Some of you guys are sick. His slam does hurt.

 

Junkyard Dog's finisher was a full power slam. After he does it, he bounces up a la Rob Van Dam. If that didn't look cool, then you were dead in the '80.

 

At least The Rock uses The People's Elbow as a flourish; the move he did before finished off the opponent.

 

As for the Worm, at least Scotty does a bulldog beforehand.

 

The FU is indisputably the lamest. Without the drive part, it is a very slowed-down fireman's carry takeover. Cena's chain is a better finisher.

Cena's DVD, pathetic as it is, is still better than bulldog into the Worm

I hope you are joking.
