I like Jake "The Snake" Roberts' DDT, Underttaker's Tombstone Piledriver, and Steve Austin's "Stone Cold Stunner".

I think its a testament to the charisma of Wrestlers such as "Hulk Hogan" and "The Rock", that they can take a basic move like a leg drop or an elbow drop and turn it into something "electrifying"!
My favourite was always "The Razors Edge" by "Razor Ramon" (Scott Hall) and "The Undertakers" "The Last Ride" great! Justin

What's the name of this one...full nelson, leg grapevine, forward drop on the opponent's face? Ouch!! And the old standard piledriver. I once saw Ox Baker drop Dusty Rhodes on his head outside the ring and it actually split his head open in front of me while sitting at ringside in '76 at the Miami Auditorium!! Man NWA was the bomb back then!

I really like the diamond cutter and also a choke slam. Those are my favorites from when I used to watch magic more.
The only constant is change.

Now my memories are all from the mid-eighties. I haven't watched pro-wrasslin' in years. So, here goes. The Honky Tonk Man's 'Shake Rattle 'n Roll", Greg 'The Hammer' Valentine's figure four leglock, Brutus the Barber Beefcake's sleeper hold, Hacksaw Jim Duggan Thumb up in the air move off the ropes (did that have a name?). I can't remember any more 'moves' but did these guys do anything special?
Coco B. Ware Mr. Wonderful, Paul Orndorff Randy "Macho Man" Savage ("Oh, YEAH!") Who was the guy that wrestled in bib overalls and a brown hat?
"Go Browns!"

Randy's finisher was the Elbow drop off the top rope
Koko's was the flying dropkick and headbutt Paul Orndorffs was the pile driver Jim Duggans was a running lariat (clothes line), and four point stance clip the the man in overals and a brown hat I believe you are talking about hillbilly jim |

mstick85 Regular user Gahanna, Ohio 151 Posts |
Yeah, that' right. Hillbilly Jim. And that four point stance of Duggan's. And his 2x4. I did used to enjoy watching all that. And of course, Bobby 'the Brain' Heenan and Jesse 'the Body' Ventura just "telling it like it is..."
"Go Browns!"

For not mentioning Sting's closer. The Scorpion Death Drop and Scorpion Lock were awesome. And Sting had to be one of the greatest and most loved wrestlers of all time. And he's back on TNA now. Robert

My favorite womans wrestler is Tai 'killer' wei, her finisher is the topless leg drop.
And yes she is really topless. I also like Alexis Larie[micky James), wish she did the topless leg drop. |

Whatever happened to The Ultimate Warrior? He and Sting were a great tag team back in the day. And don't get me started on LOD - The Road Warriors, Hawk and Animal, who could kick fanny over anybody, past present or future. can't remember their finishing moves, but they were studs and intimidators. I can't believe the powers-that-be at the time had the "Rock and Roll Express" beat them for the belts. WHATEVER! Those guys were smaller than me, and Animal could have creamed 'em both inside of ten seconds!

Wow let me ask this.
Anyone remember Scott Steiner with long hair and his brother as a tag team? Scott used to do the Frankensteiner. Which if you remember it was an amazing move for a man of his size. Also not a finishing move but I was a mere 20 feet away when the Big Show at the time the "Giant" and he did a Kip Up! man it was cool

I surely remember the "frankensteiner". it was a great finisher by a great tag team. I think he had neck surgury a while back and it slowed him down. Sadly, I no longer find him exciting.

I watch TNA everytime it's on. Scott stiener,Kevin NASH, Sting, Christian, Rino, Raven, Dudley boys, Roaddog and Billy gunn are all there now and it is a far better product (always has been) than anything wwe has got.
The best finisher in TNA is Petey Williams with the canadian Destroyer, I can't describe it. Anybody else watch TNA on spike? Thurs. & Sat at 11Eastern. Also anybody see the article about Goldberg being the announcer for a MMA PPV in JULY? |

Problem with TNA to me is too much ads and nonsense for the pay per view.
It is where their money is so they hype it and leave out a lot of matches. Business whatcha gonna do.
