As a /co/mrade, I'm offended by this. It doesn't seem respectful to Superman.

And anyway, a Superman punch isn't some weird jumping thing, it's just a regular haymaker.

Shellshock is incredibly shit

Edge's spear

Unironically Styles Clash. He just falls face first from a really awkward position with a dude's head between his legs.

It's not you stupid fuck.
It's a move that's been used in pro fighting for decades

>>2594004
I just don't understand the appeal, honestly. How's that supposed to be more devastating than tombstone, for example? 450 and Phenomenal Forearm at least look cool.

Miz's russian leg sweep. Fucking awful.
Also JBL's clothesline(everyone does them but his is the best?)

It's not TECHNICALLY a finisher super-smart super-serious wrestling guy it's a signature move but it still looks weak as fuck. especially since he averages at least 3 of them per match.

both of these finishers are garbo

Pedigrees from around 2003-onwards, when Trips releases the opponent's arms too early.
Turned one of the best finishers in the business into one of the weakest looking

>>2594051
I don't know, a big guy dropping his leg across your throat seems like it would hurt like hell.

>>2594064
Warrior's splash is weak as fuck

>>2594041
This is an ironic finisher, it's supposed to look stupid. He does it when the guy's out anyway to mock him.

I fucking hate people saying the dropkick was an ok finisher because hogan was huge.

It doesn't make sense.

Taker does it all the time while also jumping higher and he is much bigger than hogan. Yet it doesn't finish anyone ever.

>>2594257
Still wondering if those are natural on both or if they are wearing "pads".

>>2594289
Yeah, that looks......uhm...wait, what was my own question?

>>2594292

Yeah, I don't like that one either. The build up is so weird...sure, in wrestling the guy who takes a move often "helps", jumps himself up for a powerbomb and what not, but them bending their own arms around AJ's legs so he can do that move...it looks sooo stupid all the time.

He just grabs their head and drops them on his chest

>>2594244
How does doing a dumb flip increase the force of you falling in any significant way?

>>2594168
Why doesn't AJ just do it like this? I get that the Clash can break someone's neck but the weird thing where he puts the legs in front of the arms looks so awkward

>>2594038
Nothing wrong with this

Only looks bad when John fucks up and ends up just flipping the opponent over instead of going with the motion and making it seem like a powerslam.

>>2593980
Thank ye for speaking on this horrible spear

>>2594602

his finisher is attempts to break his own shoulder with their upper body weight "wrestling is the only sport where you can hurt yourself more than your opponent and still win"

>>2594090
Did Warrior ever finish a match with *just* a splash? I mean, he didn't even use it against Savage, he just should tackled him into fucking oblivion. His finisher was always the Gorilla Press Slam, then he splashed the back of their corpse, as I remember it.

>>2595592
Jake the snake used the DDT bro, plus Dean's DDT is protected as fuck so it's at least kayfabe strong

>>2595592
DDT is fine as a finish if you make a big deal about it
What's much worse is the way he teases it constantly
>gets double underhook
>sticks out his tongue

at least let them struggle to get out of it

>>2593915
An muay thai or MMA style superman punch would be a great finisher. Roman's is bullshit.

>>2595729
The biggest problem is it tries to be a theatrical move, but it's literally just jumping in the air and then delivering a weak punch. Big Show's punch is great because he throws his weight into it. Jumping to deliver a punch is retarded at best.

>>2593980
Anyone's spear as a finisher. It's a signature at most.

>>2595433
GOAT sell for the Rainmaker

>>2595592
>that pin

cringe

>>2595740
That's why I'm saying a proper muay thai or MMA superman punch would be great. The real deal's not so much jumping upward as using a blocked low kick to trebuchet the body forward into a punch. It's the same body mechanics principle as an STO, but with a punch instead of a boring ass backslam.

>>2594259
im in stitches

>>2595747
>not liking lewd pins

>>2595592
DDT is a legit devastating move tho

>>2595990
I know it hurts like fuck but I dislike how deano has no set up and it looks like he just pulls one out of his ass like >>2595614 said

Whatever it is that American Alpha does. It's just a backdrop suplex except they do a hand off in the middle. Hell Apollo Crews turns their team finisher into a power bomb by himself.

>>2594634
Sig move isnt a finisher you good.

Thats like saying randy ortons ddt should be his finisher because its his sig move.

Name me one time the superman punch has ended a match

>>2593980
The only spear that looks as though it would hurt is Goldberg's. And he only learned how to do that from years of playing football.

Romans is maybe a close second when he hits it well. Lashley isn't bad. Edge is garbage tier though.

>>2596639
Rhyno's Gore wasn't bad.

>>2594634
>signature moves

Proved the point for me. Superman punch isn't a finisher.

>>2595517
Jobbers go down to signature moves.

>>2594226
Pro wrestler here. I've taken many a styles clash. It's only dangerous when idiots try to tuck their chin for the bump instead of looking backwards

>>2596638

The fact such a weak looking move has a risk of neck injury makes it the worst of both worlds.

>>2595592

That was awesome though. It looked great, it's protected and a double hook DDT legit looks devastating.

>>2603068
He barely does underhook though, which makes it look fucking lazy as hell. Drew McIntyre's though, that's a good one.

>Rock bottoms self

>>2593912
I dont think the reverse STO is particularly weak or bad looking or anything, but it's got to be the lazy man choice. I remember there was a period when anyone who didnt have or was in need of a new finisher was using it: Shelton, Kennedy, Knox, Rellik, etc.

>>2594012
The way AJ does it looks brutal imo, never looks smooth he just hoists the motherfucker upside down steps over them and drops them face first into the mat with his weight on top.

I get why people don't like it and I always thought it looked like shit in TNA but after breaking Tatsu's neck is was put over like a motherfucker in NJPW and I still buy it from then.

Also Styles mostly gets pins in the WWE from the forearm.

>>2593912
Seth's version is way worse and I'm a Seth mark

Doesn't even look like a finisher

>>2603220
I dont think that he ever did that move, Ambrose is the one that uses it.

>>2603237
He's talking about Seth's short armed knee finisher ya dip

>>2594041
The thread is asking for worst, not most electrifying

>>2595639
AJ knew from experience and caught it in time
That look he and Ambrose exchanged was some shit though. It was like "oh shit did we just commit a act against God in the middle of the ring"

>>2593912
Seth's new knee finisher
I mean, that move can look good, but Seth can't fucking make that move convincing

>>2594602
only DB has kicked out off it

>>2604959
He should transition it to a falcon arrow or a bridging northern lights suplex. It look even weaker than the rainmaker by itself.

>>2603131
One time they shot this move from the back like they would a DDT and it looked 10x better

Tombstone Piledriver is stupid, your just dropping someone onto the mat

The People's Elbow isn't the finisher, it's his GOAT spinebuster.

>>2594085
That depends on the other wrestlers. Most wrestlers don't want to take that bump because the pedigree hurts like shit. Also the PG shit probably influenced that decision.

>>2593915
But the superman punch is a legitimate mma move.

Even though it's more about gaining ground rather than inflicting damage.

>>2605731
someone hasn't seen Arn Anderson's spinebuster

>>2594635
I mean... so did the diamond cutter and, to an extent, the stunner

this is a fine finisher with extension of disbelief

>>2594201
If you got a small dick. My girl has a fat ass and fucking her feels so good.

I don't get the GTS. It's just a knee to the gut.

Bayley to Belly is the objective worst.
