Gay finishers and trademark moves.

The Steiner Recliner is kinda dumb... although the Big Bad Booty Daddy could be the coolest wrestler of all time.... next to Superstar Billy Graham... and Jesse the Body Ventura

The best finisher I have ever seen was one that Scott Steiner used back in his WWF days along with Rick. He jacked them up like he was going to suplex them, held them straight upwards, twisted them to the front of his body and dropped them straight down into a sitting piledriver. He damn near killed Koko B Ware with that move once.

Kris Canyon has some great moves.

The worst finisher of ALL time. Tully Blanchard's sling shot suplex. WTF???? It was just another suplex, nothing special.

Isn't that the "Frankensteiner"?

 

[J.Luv]

nah, the frankensteiner was a move scott did in tandem with his brother. Scott would a guy up on his shoulders and rick would dive off the top rope and give the guy a bulldog. I have to admit, even though I don't like him, Goldberg's jackhammer is probably the most impressive finisher I've ever seen, maybe not the absolute coolest......but when he put up the Big Show in that move my mouth literally dropped.

Yeah, I really miss GOLDBERG!!!

My dad used to get drunk at family parties and weddings before I was born and did the worm on the dance floor.

I miss Ravishing Rick Rude and the Ultimate Warrior.

The Frankensteiner is now known as the hurracanara and all the luchadores do it. Where you jump on your opponents shoulders from the front and then turn a back flip pulling him over with your legs so he falls under you. Rey Mysterio does it a lot.

That one I was talking about starts out just like a vertical suplex. Imagine that when Goldberg does his jackhammer, when he twists around, instead of dropping on top of their chest with his weight, he dropped their heads straight down between his legs and sits down in a piledriver position. Remeber that piledriver Owen Hart gave Austin and nearly broke Austin's neck? Not the standard piledriver, but the one that started like a tombstone piledriver? Instead of dropping to his knees, he dropped all the way flat on his butt, Now imagine if he started Austin up in a vertical suplex before dropping him.

If you want to talk best finishers, here's 2 of my favorites that most of you have never seen, and most likely never will in the states. Hell, the WWF has outlawed piledrivers most drivers and any kind of neck bumps.

Burning Hammer (Reverse Death Valley Driver) - Some of you may have seen Saturn's Death Valley Driver, but this modified version adds a much greater element of danger. Many believe it to be the single most dangerous move in wrestling.

Tiger Driver '91 - Perhaps not as dangerous as the Burning Hammer in some people's eyes, but I like the look of this move slightly better. Still a very, very, dangerous move.

Why do you say that? I'm assuming because of the risk associated with doing them.

 

[Latimer]

True.

Hey Latimer,

The second move you showed us with pics is similar to what HHH used to do. It was still called the pedigree, and has the same initial set up as today's pedigree. He then flipped you up, like in that pic, but then dropped to his knees (like a tombstone). It was an f'ing scary move, and is actually the straw that broke Shawn Michaels back, so to speak. I have video of it, and you can actually see HBK's legs go lifeless, as he went completely numb. After that, Triple H altered the move to what we see as today's pedigree. Another reason why HHH changed it was because he used to f up his lower back trying to flip up his opponent.

As for Droz, he was injured during a "routine" powerbomb. He was facing D'lo Brown, when D'lo's knee gave out, and he just crumbled with Droz upside down. Droz landed wrong, and said he actually heard the "CRACK!" He later stated he thought he was dead.
I believe that was during a house show/ dark match, and therefore there is no film of the incident (thankfully).

Oh, isn't Latimer the huge guy from that movie "The Program?"

Yeah I remember when Trip used to do the original Pedigree. Back when he was small as hell compared to nowadays.

It sucks that Puke got fucked up off that botched Sky High. Droz must have terrible luck, an injury took him out of pro football and now he's in a wheelchair from a wrestling injury. I hope he can walk again one day.

Lattimer is the guy from The Program. I had to drop the one t and spell it Latimer because the name was taken back when I registered.
