Least convincing ‘big’ finisher?

By Scott Keith on November 2, 2018

Hello Scott,

What in your opinion is the least convincing 'big' finishing move? I don't get the RKO myself – there's a lot more suspension of disbelief than wrestling usually requires in the way the person getting RKOd jumps with their legs straight out because Randy has just grabbed their head and fallen forwards.

Thanks

Really? I've always thought that the RKO looks fine and is a perfectly cromulent finisher. Now, what I HATE is whatever the fuck Velveteen Dream is trying to accomplish with his overly complicated death valley driver…thing. That is a man in need of a better finisher. Also, the Zig Zag, where Dolph hurls himself in the air, vaguely in the direction of his opponent's back, and then takes a flat back bump from high in the air while we're supposed to pretend that the OTHER guy is the one hurt by it. Sure.
