Least Favorite Wrasslin' Move?

[stro]

A lot of these moves listed are based on actual strikes/throws in real martial arts. The superkick is just a thrust kick seen in various forms of karate, taekwondo, and occasionally even in MMA fights. The superman punch originated in muay thai and was popularized in MMA well before Roman was doing it. The Rock Bottom is a form of a uranagi used in sambo and judo. Russian leg sweep is a sambo technique.

A lot of shyt hurts in real sports as well. Dudes throwing suplexes in the octagon feel it, too. That's why learning how to bump and break falls is taught in wrestling/sambo/judo/bjj and so forth.

 

[GOAT]

The suicide dive where you just jump with your hands out and touch the opponent. Everyone does it and it looks ridiculous. How is anyone supposed to believe that's a damaging move?

The spear

snap swinging neckbreaker

 

[patscorpio]

canadian destroyer is always some BS

but what gets me is seth rollins doing a superplex into a michinoku driver spot...shyt aggravates me to no end

also not a fan of big e's finisher either..looks silly

 

[patscorpio]

if hogan did this off the top rope like bobby eaton that would have been dope

 

[patscorpio]

I used to think the Canadian Destroyer was cool when Petey Williams did it but that and the jumping cutter are now spammed all over the indies and Lucha Underground I feel nothing for them anymore. I really don't like high risk moves that never win matches like the superplex from the top rope you're being slammed from a greater height and taking something with more impact than whatever their finisher is but you kick out. I don't like moves that obviously require help to pull off or moves where they visibly never make contact I used to always look away when Cena would hit the five knuckle shuffle for this reason.

Also Mojo Rawly's hammer time Double Axe gives me second hand embarrassment.

what the fukk is this?

 

[RammerJammer]

Overdrive is fukking trash

what the fukk is this?

A good reason to hate Mojo Rawley.

 

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

what the fukk is this?

Unsanctioned buffoonery.

As great as The Rock was, he inadvertently influenced a lot of wrestlers with their versions of the People's elbow. Some that got over, and some not so much

• Scotty 2 Hotty's Worm
• Cryme Tyme's "Money money, yeah yeah" elbow.
• Rene Dupree's French Tickler
• Kofi Kingston's Boom Drop
• Mojo Rawley's It's Hammertime

I'm sure there's even more.

Scotty 2 Hotty's Worm

at least this is on some b-boy shyt..that the worm doesnt have that connotation to me

cant help dupree though..that boy is violating hard

 

[TripleAgent]

Always hated the "Roll The Dice". Finisher for scrubs who can't figure shyt out. For like 20 years...NEVER gets over.

 

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

you talking bout when Chelsea Green did it to Pentagon on LU a few weeks back? that shyt had me buggin too

shyt looks too cartoonish in a bad way, ain’t no 130lb girl flipping a dude twice her size like that

Yeah man, I'm like

Pump handle slam

Yeah, the pump handle is the most inefficient shyt. Do all that just to slam a motherfukker on his back

anytime i see a flying headbutt i cringe now.

I know, between Dynamite Kid and Chris Benoit, I don't know how anybody could do that shyt now.

there was always a viciousness to hogan's offense that i liked


but knowing that perhaps that viciousness was motivated by racial hatred is real disturbing

Daniel Bryan's running knee. It looks ridiculous.

I hate that shyt. That's always been one of the reasons I never got the Daniel Bryan love.

To me, he's basic as hell and that finisher is just so corny

Coast to Coast especially with a trashcan or chair. It looks so bad seeing the guy taking the move have to hold the chair/trashcan in place. I'll add Sami Callihan's chair spot too.
