Most Overrated/worst finishers

I always thought Jeff Hardy's swanton bomb sucked. the dude in WCW Jindrak was it? did it way better. hardy's just doesn't look smooth and he looks like he is barely getting around on it.

I can't argue with that. If you ever watch WWE vintage its amazing how many matches are won with falling punches.

I always hate kick finishers. Sweet Chin Music is cool but thinks like MVP drive by etc.... Rubbish

Sean O'Haire, a potentially great talent, wasted.

The Rock is great but The People's Elbow was just an elbow drop in the end, wasn't it?

John Morrison is another guy I like, but Starship Pain often looks awkward. A lot of the times he barely touches them or basically misses them.

And to me, the modern wrestling fan, any finisher pre-1990 looks pretty tame.

A simple as they were People's Elbow and Hogan's Legdrop were tremendously over, they fitted the characters, I mean yeah I guess you could say they were lame, but then I wonder how could I knock moves I popped for as a kid more times than I can remember, I still remember "Play Wrestling" at school and the People's Elbow was one of the most used moves  :hihi:

I mean if we are going down this route, I suppose The Worm needs mentioning right, I mean ultimately it was a lil' downwards karate chop.

As for Starship Pain, I think its great, when its not botched, unfortunately he botches it far too often....

5 Knuckle shuffle is retarded

People's Elbow is the worst move in wrestling history cause it gave birth to all these copycat moves that suck

^At least the 5 Knuckle Shuffle isn't used to end matches I guess. It seems like a move mroe suited to a heel IMO....

Agree Izzy... so happy he is gone

I always never liked Edge's spear... A dude like Goldberg, its believable, but Edge is tall and skinny and a spear just doesn't look lethal enough to cause a pinfall.
