There are a lot of finishing moves that would qualify as lame. A lot of moves are lame but are dressed up with theatrics that make them less lame (ie, people's elbow). I'm asking you guys: what is the most boring/least painful -looking finishing move you've ever seen?

I'll throw out the Bezerker, who's finishing move was to pick up a guy as if he was going to do a back suplex but instead, he threw him out onto the mat to win by countout.

The Bushwhacker's Battering Ram comes to mind right away.

CM Punk's GTS isn't a terrible move in and of itself, but compared to his Indy and ROH finisher, the Pepsi Plunge, it sucks.

The Samoan Spike and Khali's hand slap both suck.

any move by great khali is pathetic hahahaha

Check the 2:55 mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ickJu7lE ... re=related

When Rikishi used to put his ass in the guys face when they were in the corner. Not sure if it was his finisher, but still the lamest and weirdest move ever...

The Spike is sick, that would hurt like hell.

the spike is boring an uncreative. No different than a punch. . . I dont care if it would hurt I just want to be entertained lol.

you can't really count the 80s, when people would use dropkicks as a finishing move

in modern times, some awful ones (off the top of my head) the mandible claw? Scotty 2 Hotty's worm?

I'm a Misterio fan but I'd have to say the 619. It looks weak and watching wrestlers sell it can be funny.

Christian's unprettier. It takes too long to set up, and i just don't like it. Like the wrestler, but don't like thje move.

Mr. Kennedy's Mic Check

Edge's spear is starting to look really weak. He should go back to the edgecutioner or edge o matic

the pepoles elbow, the logic behind the move just sucks it takes fr ever for him to hit the move,

Dude, if the mandible claw was on you, you'd probably tap. I know I would. I don't know if it was worse with or without Mr. Socko though. Mick Foley's uncovered hands are probably just as disgusting to have in your trap anyway.

Undertaker's "Old School" move when he yanks your arm and takes an extra ten seconds to balance on the top rope and than jumps down and smacks you on the back.

Doesn't look like it hurts much, nor does it seem like much of a task to counter :|

Old school is awesome. My question is, what was old school called before it was called old school.

"Arm twist ropewalk chop"

According to wikipedia at least. But yeah, I've never really head them mention the name of that move back in the day.

Surprised no one brought up one of the most famous finishes in Hogan's leg drop.

Seriously, you have arms as big as a tree and the guys he wrestled were over 200 pounds, but the impact of a leg not even kicking but laid across your chest incapacitates you for three seconds.

Really?

Will also give special mention to "Hands of Stone" Ronnie Garvin and his knockout punch.
