The Head-In-Underwear-PiledriverAs humiliating as Somar's Head-In-Underwear Pin, I am just glad this is not a tombstone piledriver, otherwise I would have to question both wrestler's sexuality. Imagine this towards the end of an iron man match, the smell must be horrific.

i hope neither of those dude has lice...
the double moonsault
While looking for finishers for my efed character, i seriously considered this one; it's rather self-explanatory in description, but incredibly awesome when seen executed.

The Legdrop
A move "immortalized" by Hulk Hogan and a move I executed with surprising efficiency off a wheelie bin onto a downed friend during a drunken walk home.......but he kicked out.

He kicked out? Fuck. Must not have been The Legdrop Of Doom.
Here's one: The Asai Moonsault This variation of the moonsault popularized by Yoshihiro Asai aka Ultimo Dragon, involves springing off the ropes inside the ring as opposed to outside. This is how to fucking NOT do it.

Ouch.....the move that ended the career of Hayabusa. Shame really, he was awesome!
And it certainly wasn't the Legdrop of Doom......but I think the fact I took a good 5 minutes to actually cover him had something to do with him kicking out! Never mind he tapped out later on to........
......The Ankle Lock
First seen in mainstream pro wrestling back in 1996-97 when "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock used it as his finisher. Later utilized to great efficiency by a true wrestling icon, your Olympic Hero and mine.....the one and only Kurt Angle.

the hair-powered spear
For some reason Edge has started powering up his spears by yanking on his hair while all-bug eyed. for some reason it irritates me as I think it looks incredibly ridiculous and awkward.

The Clothesline The most commonly used version of it's less stiff forefather, the Lariat, the Clothesline is one of the most rudimentary moves utilised in the ring. Although when utilised by the likes of JBL - or even better, Sid Vicious - this can be a move of devastating magnitude. The most perfect example of which, was inflicted upon the hapless Lee Scott in the opening moments of a bout from 1989, which was the match that first got me interested in American pro wrestling. Keep your eyes peeled at the 1:35 mark, when the horror strikes, and then it's all downhill from there for poor Lee - quite literally! Not surprisingly, Mr. Scott became a referee not long after this ultimate squash match. And Sid instantly became a legend to me. Check it out.
Fucking hell!

The Jacknife Power Bomb
A splendid finisher where you fold your opponent up like an accordion, and slam them onto their back. Done correctly, it is devastating, but done wrong, it is fucking devastating. This is how NOT to do it, once again courtesy of the amazing Sid Vicious.
