GOAT Finisher Tourney (Round One) Canadian Destroyer vs. The Big Boot

[Here Comes the Pain]

The big boot is a standard & effective move for any wrestler over the height of 6'4"

Petey Williams is the only wrestler that should be doing the Canadian destroyer. Anybody else doing just looks stupid.

This is what the Canadian Destroyer looks like when the recipient neglects to backflip onto their own head

WOAT-tier manoeuvre

I hope they weren't trying that shyt and instead just a throw towards the barricade

If they were actually trying a Canadian destroyer..

Using a move like that as a transition to head to commercial break

Learn to comprehend ... I stated that that is probably his best match... you’re the one saying that the Eddie vs test match is remembered LOL ...

It is..no one has any issues during any WM 17 REVIEW. Learn to wake the fukk up and stop being a gimp.

Big boot

The first time I saw the Destroyer, it was the greatest finish I had ever seen.

NOW? I can see Dijakovic do that shyt to Keith Lee off the top rope and get a nearfall. A NEARFALL. You're liable to see it 2-4 times a night on AEW programming. It's not a finisher anymore. It's a signature. A believable nearfall that in Adam Cole's case, sets up his actual finish (a variant of a big boot).

Meanwhile? In the right hands, the Big Boot/Claymore/Sick Kick/Yakuza Kick/Shining Black is a one-hit KO that can be done to anyone, looks like a believable hit, and can legitimately be used in a real-world setting to win a legit fight.

It's the Big Boot. It checks every box.

The Canadian Destroyer is just one step too far into suspension of disbelief - it looks fukking ridiculous.

Big boot.

 

[WaveMolecules]

Shocked the destroyer is winning. Definition of flippy shyt. Trash. Big boot by default.

How the fukk is the canadian "destroyer" winnin this shyt???


Test big boot was vicious he would kick heads off with that shyt

If we're talking Test, the big boot won. If we're talking Kkkane and Hulkkk Hoegan, the Canadian destroyer won.

One of the reasons why I disqualified the Canadian destroyer is because you got 90 year retired veteran wrestlers on AEW exposing it as just 2 ppl flipping in unison into a piledriver. The move is exposed if the jobber isn't athletic enough. A sunset power bomb from the turnbuckle sounds more believable tbh.

Finishers where you have to make yourself a dumbass to believe them are trash. Big boot.

I feel like for the purposes of this tournament you've got to consider the best possible version of the move or at least the most well-known employer of the move.

Meanwhile we got people thinking the Rock Bottom is the same as the Golden Arm Bomber.

The best version of the rock bottom is better than anything from Triple h but I agree. I still think Test kick is still better than Petey Williams Canadian destroyer now looking back.

 

[Jello Biafra]

Canadian Destroyer with the easy win.

Even though it annoys the fukk out of me that the move isn't being used as a finisher like it is supposed to.
