Yes, this time I put a poll on it.

I loved the second half of RAW. A lot of stuff went on setting up, what I think is going to be McMahons/Spirit Squad vs DX Cena, HHH, HBK and others. It should be good. Plus the Joey Stilles thing is setting up the ECW one night stand. Should be an interesting plot comming in the following months. Also, RVD is going to win the championship at ECW One Night Stand.

nothing beats the Diamond Cutter, i know it was WCW, but still nothing beats it.

Wasnt the diamond cutter just a DDT? The Peal River Plunge, Pedigree, and Tombstone are much better then the Diamond Cutter.

slightlyaraiderfan · 05-02-2006, 10:58 PM

The Diamond Cutter is kind of like Stunner, but you fall on your back instead of rear end.

rchrd · 05-02-2006, 10:59 PM

Before Austin got really complacent about it, the stunner was quality.

Jughead10 · 05-02-2006, 11:03 PM

I haven't watched wrestling in years, but I used to be nuts about ECW in high school. So upset when WWE or whatever it is called now purchased it. I believe the Stunner was nothing more than the Whippersnapper I believe it was called. Mikey Whipwreck had been doing it for years in ECW. Austin just took it when he moved to WWF.

Also what is the Pearl River Plunge? Can someone explain to me what it is. Because I'm sure it was stolen from someone back in ECW.

It's been awhile, but I think the Pearl River Plunge was sort of a modified Power Bomb. Instead of just throwing the guy on his back though, I think the person doing it follows through and lands on their butt. It was Ahmed Johnson's finisher back in the day.

You really think DX will come back? That would be pretty sweet, but i'm not sure how it would work out. I can't see HHH and Michaels back together, but we will see.

Austin's back is so messed up, it's the only move that he is able to use.

lol.

Sweet Chin Music?

An under the radar move that would hurt in real life is
Christian's Impaler.

eazyb81 · 05-03-2006, 02:33 AM

What about Hogan's leg drop?

Probably the worst finisher of all time.

An old-school one that hurts in real life is Sgt. Slaughter's Camel Clutch, I almost broke my brother's neck doing that to him.

moc182 · 05-03-2006, 03:22 AM

How is the pearl river plunge not winning? Ahmed Johnson was probably the greatest person to ever live, ever.

05-03-2006, 03:31 AM

I love any chock slam, spear or diving finisher. Although my favorites are the twist of fate, tombstone and Jackhammer.

eazyb81 · 05-03-2006, 03:35 AM

Just look at the sig for the best finisher of all time: The Shake, Rattle, and Roll!!! You can't beat a swinging neckbreaker.

Legion of Doom probably had the best tag team finisher ever.

05-03-2006, 03:35 AM

I had to vote for the tombstone because the Undertaker always has and always will be my favorite wrestler.

Creek · 05-03-2006, 04:10 AM

hmmm....

Koji Clutch (best submission)
Rhinodriver
Cop Killa

Off the top of my head those are some of my all-time favorites.

As for current WWE, Kenny's leg drop would porbably be my favorite.

Honorable mention in this thread to Petey Williams' canadian destroyer.

Cena won't be in it. That would be way to many Championship contenders in one group. Plus, look for Cena to turn heel. Watch for Sean Waltman (X-Pac, 123 Kid, Syxx) to come back if MTVs wrestling promotion fails, which it probably will.

I read something where they said JBL might win the Championship and then RVD would win it from him at One Night Stand. I'd really like to see that. One thing I think would be really interesting is if RVD still has his Intercontinental Belt when he wins the Championship. I think this would be a great way to justify having ECW on both RAW and Smackdown

Worst finisher ever. Sure it looks cool, but it is completely idiotic. I know you can't do any of these moves without the other persons cooperation, but I draw the line when the person receiving the move has to do it to themselves!!!

I agree. Just giving it an honorable mention because it is one dangerous bump to take.

Wow the canadian destroyer is ridiculous, the other guy has to do a freaking flip on his own for the move to work. And that 2nd finisher took way too long to develop.

05-03-2006, 04:25 AM

Okay I retract my previous statement.

Does Petey Williams do that to him self as the other persons finisher? I'm confused.

That's the only video I found of it. I've seen them hit it much faster before. 1st time I saw it, it came out of nowhere and I thought the other guy had died.

05-03-2006, 04:29 AM

Ohh no, that guy got killed!!!

I saw a video of Triple H doing the pedigree to some jobber and the guy got a little to ambitious and he jumped to high. He ended up landing directly on his head and you could just see his spine crush. He apparently died a few hours later.

That second one looks like the Vertabreaker, but with a second guy diving and kicking the victim.
