The indys killed the Superkick in the past 15 years

Meanwhile, the rumor was Benoit actually used the crossface to kill

I abstain from this one

Crossface. I used that on a cousin one time... have never had a quicker tapout.

The Young Bucks and Usos (although the latter does win matches with it on occasion) have single-handedly killed the Superkick has a viable finisher anyway.

Yup, the Superkick might be deader than the DDT as a finisher.

You could've put the kick up as a finisher and the army of aliases would've voted it into the semifinals

 

[Silkk]

Crossface take way too much damn work to put in


Superkick can catch your ass from anywhere and you out. And i'm talking HBK's superkick not all the spammy shyt from the Bucks/Indies.

 

[Jello Biafra]

Most people don't do the Crossface properly (aside from Daniel Bryan) because they leave the one arm of the person taking the move just free and clear instead of locking it in.

Superkick wins it for me.
