---------------

Such a crazy list to actually breakdown, but I felt it warranted its own thread and could garner conversation. First glance I think the top 10 is fine, but the RKO is wayyyyyyy too high. Batista Bomb is pretty high. Big shows chokeslam is too high, and Lawlers piledriver is too low.

Earthquake? Tazmission?

50. JBL – Clothesline

It's always annoying when this is called a clothesline, when it's most certainly a lariat. And more to the point, Stan Hansen>Bradshaw. And I love Bradshaw.

46. Kerry Von Erich – Iron Claw

Such a weird one. But it was over.

44. Lex Luger – Torture Rack

Feel like maybe this should be higher as a finisher.

33. Jerry The King Lawler – Piledriver

Agree that this is too low.

30. CM Punk – GTS

Too high, but I can see why they'd include it.

18. Rey Mysterio – 6-1-9

This is a weird case where I'd go back and forth between worst and best finisher. It's so completely unrealistic, and look absolutely painless. But it's over as hell, and really innovative. Can't decide on this.

16. Bruno Sammartino – Bearhug

Surprised Bruno was mentioned on the list.

11. Randy Orton – RKO

I actually don't think this is too high. On top of looking really, really cool, we've seen him hit it in a ton of innovative ways.

The top 10 is pretty spot on, although I think The Rock and Triple H's are too high.

[Celtics_Champs]

I friggen love the Pedigree. I agree on the rock though.

[CapeCrusader]

Was always bothered that the Scorpion death lock and the Sharpshooter were the EXACT same move! lol. Besides that I have to say the one that stands out the most is the Torture Rack, definitely should be higher.

[jr lucosa]

I don't think Lita's moonsault needs to be on the list. Tazmission should be.

No shooting star press? I guess most the guys who did it were never very over therefore it couldn't be considered a top finisher.

One move I thought that was always sold very well and made to seem very effective was the Tarantula. Couldn't ever be considered a finisher because of the rope break though.

[Stanford]

No shooting star press? I guess most the guys who did it were never very over therefore it couldn't be considered a top finisher.

Nah, you're right. Air Bourne is a **** work of art.

[Coach Smiley]

I gotta feeling this dvd will have a heavy dose of Brooklyn Brawler, Curt Hawkins and Jack Swagger opinions

[jr lucosa]

No shooting star press? I guess most the guys who did it were never very over therefore it couldn't be considered a top finisher.

Nah, you're right. Air Bourne is a **** work of art.

It sure is.

Funny thing is, as I was trying to think of the last superstar who routinely used the SSP as a finisher, Evan completely slipped my mind. I was thinking maybe Paul London, lol.

I wonder if Evan makes it back on TV ever? I remember hearing something about him suffering an awful ankle injury shortly after his return from suspension IIRC.

[Christophersp10]

Attitude Adjustment is far too high on the list. Where is the vertebreaker by Shane Helms? That move is sick and looks lethal.
