Guest Report post Posted June 18, 2002 The worst finishers thread. The name of the topic is self explanitory but, what finishers make you the most excited every time you see them? For me it's a good moonsault by anybody, especially Muta's high speed version. Also, I never could get tired of Sabu's Arabian Face Buster or the Five Star Frog Splash.

Guest Report post Posted June 18, 2002 I'd put the Stunner up there with my most exciting finishers. I also personally go nuts for the Rock Bottom. The ***** Frog Splash too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dace59 Report post Posted June 18, 2002 A nice nasty looking but safe (sheer drop) brainbuster or even better Avalanche (sheer drop) brainbuster. Callidonian Safe Maker (Fireman's Carry KK) It's my mates finisher and I'm picking sides, but it's a cool move. Stiff Yakuzza Kicks and Running Elbow Smahes.. you just can't beat them, it harcks back to something primeavl in you. Acid Bomb (Inverted BTB) I dont care what you can say about the company or the worker.. The Acid Bomb rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 18, 2002 Five Star, Orange Crush, Tiger Driver '91 (just because I CRINGE when I see it), Rock Bottom, and, OF COURSE...the Stunner. *Sniff* I'm gonna miss it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Renegade Report post Posted June 18, 2002 Stunner, Pedigree (When HHH actually jumps backwards instead of jumping down), Ankle lock, Walls of Jericho (when its done properly, on one knee, Crippler Crossface, Bookend (looks better than the rock bottom) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Singular Report post Posted June 18, 2002 Crossface Chickenwing was always my favorite. The double underhook piledriver Kid Kash used in ECW looked really sick. Masato Tanaka's Diamond Dust and Roaring, (Rolling?) Elbow were nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dace59 Report post Posted June 18, 2002 Roaring, (Rolling?) Elbow Due to the Japanese accent L's sound like R's. So it is really Rolling (Japnese tech term for a spinning move) But it sounds like Roaring. It was populariesed as Roaring in the US thanks to Styles and has become an offical name in it's own right. In the US it's called as Roaring. In Japan it's called as Rolling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 18, 2002 I've seen a number of good ones listed already, but I'll just say that any top turnbuckle flying attack performed well is about enough to get me marking out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest converge241 Report post Posted June 18, 2002 The Stunner (usually more so when Rock's getting it, as he sells it the best) The Powerbomb ( its pretty common now but when Sid or Vader first started it , man!!) Tornado DDT pretty simple. I dont know all the names for the Japaneese moves that have been translated but i appreciate them. Ive watched american wreslting since the beginning of 86, but never got into foreign, so no laughing at my pedestrian picks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Coffin Surfer Report post Posted June 19, 2002 Roaring, (Rolling?) Elbow Due to the Japanese accent L's sound like R's. So it is really Rolling (Japnese tech term for a spinning move) But it sounds like Roaring. It was populariesed as Roaring in the US thanks to Styles and has become an offical name in it's own right. In the US it's called as Roaring. In Japan it's called as Rolling. I always wondered that. To me Masato Tanka's Roaring Elbow seemed different than Misawa's Rolling Elbow. Masato sometimes does a complete 360 spin across the ring, while it seems like Misawa just did a 180 or something. I'am I wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 19, 2002 Dick Togo does the Miracle Ectasy Bomb can you discribe it? It's basically when you lift your opponent up like a chokeslam, and then catch them mid-air and hit a sit out powerbomb. and byt the way, Men's TEIOH uses that move, not Togo...

Guest Dace59 Report post Posted June 19, 2002 Miracle Ectasy Bomb: Yep, Chokeslam Powerbomb/ Sit out Chokeslam well, now you know Coffin Surfer. It just depends on their posistion, the opps. and how they are setting up weather Misawa and Tanka do a 360 or a 180 Spin, they are the same moves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Dace59 Report post Posted June 19, 2002 Millenium Suplex (I think it's called) If you're talking about TM4's Cross Face Chicken Wing suplex, then yes, you're right. German suplex w/ opponent laying on stomach first You know there's no term for a move then flips the opp durring the move or after impact so they land the opposite way up or down afterwards. Like Lyger's german suplex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Just call me Dan Report post Posted June 19, 2002 Diamond Cutter, baby! All the variations ruled and I marked like a bitch when he finally started hitting it every once in a while on WWE TV when his push sort of began from the bottom (Euro Title) The move was great. Any finisher that is hit right after it's distinct signal is given to the crowd (Self Hi-Five) Rocks. Oh, and of course I am a mark for the Stone Cold Stunner.

Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted June 19, 2002 the diamond cutter was cool but the kanyon cutter was a big markout for me. the time when he was running around wcw giving it to every person he seen was classic stuff. i remember one nitro they were showing a pre taped interview form earlier which was filmed in the stands, and for what seem liked no reason the camera started zooming in on a member of the ring crew standing in the ring. all of a sudden kanyon slides in, hits the kanyon cutter and runs off right again.
