No... Same as the 619 (see thread starter).... Would you replace the Hogan Leg Drop too? ...SCM? SC-Stunner?

The majorityof the roster would love to have finishers so well known and 'marketable'.

I have to Say that Morrison's Moonlight drive or whatever the hell its called is extremely generic.

How the hell did I miss that on? The Moonlight Drive is blah.

As for the Worlds Strongest Slam, with Henry doing the move, it seems legit to me. It's him using his strength he is the World's stongest man after all) plus his weight beinging slamed/droped on you. Sure it's not a flashy move, but it's simple and effective.

Yeah, glorified neakbreaker (Moonlight Drive)

WSS doesnt need to be changed, he doesnt exactly have a large moveset

Big Show should really stop doing the spear too. Jack Swagger could also use some kinda secondary finisher or a submission or somthing.

Top of the list is obviously Big Show. First of all he's horrible in the ring, and can barely throw regular punches, never mind a knockout one. It's always executed slowly, sloppily and looks ridiculous. Besides, how many punches are thrown in the course of a wrestling match...why not just do it right off the bat. What happened to that cobra clutch/backbreaker throw he used in ECW?

As said, MVP's overdrive is terrible. Drive By should be his finisher.

Cody's finisher is also extremely generic. We have definitely entered the age of spinning neckbreaker finishers and Cody's Cross Rhoades is no different.

Bring back Burchill's Curb Stomp.... the jackhammer isn't working for him. And he's never consistent of whether it's a jackhammer or brainbuster.

You guys don't like Regal's finishers? Really?

Miz's Skull Crushing Finale is also a bit blah. It's not too bad but I preferred the reality check.

Punk's GTS is bad ass...IMO, one of the most painful looking finishers in WWE...next to maybe the Code Breaker. Cmon...being thrown off someone's shoulders and getting a knee right in the face?

Oh and LMAO @ Henry's World's Strongest Slam....what a lazy, boring, bullshit finisher.

Off topic a little bit...but Drew's finisher is fucking brutal.

Mark Jindrak's punch was better than Big Show's

also Yoshi Tatsu needs a secondary finisher

That's all fine and well, but when I see a foot of space between Henry and his opponent I'm not buying it...lol. ALMOST as bad as when Big Show tries to execute a splash.
As far as people connecting with their moves goes... everyone could take a lesson from Orton. When he does those high knee drops and shit? That looks brutal. And as I like to call it, the cigarette stomp out on their chest..lol.

--MVP: As mentioned he needs another 'grapple' move. The Drive by Kick is brutal but he needs a normal move imo.

--Jack Swagger: I'm not a huge fan of the gutwrench. Some type of Olympic Slam would be nice for him.

--The Miz: Yeah he just got a new one but I'm not digging it. I have no suggestions for Miz.

--Kofi Kingston: Maybe an actual move, a slam maybe some type of Blockbuster off a springboard or something to add to the TIP.

--Cody Rhodes: Yeah, if he'll ever be a big player in the company he needs a different finisher.

There's many, many more but that's all I got for now.

I think A Pump Handle Slam or Jacknife for Swaggz would be AWESOME!!

MVP should adopt the Tiger Suplex or maybe a Torture Rack Powerbomb ala AJ Styles.

You are so anti-indy lol

Regaal stretch is tight

I'm not anti indy, i'm anti needless FLIPZ.

Regal's character is a badass who isn't flashy. A knee to the head gets it done. Last time I saw him use the Regal Stretch btw was against Punk during KOTR. Needs a comeback now.

Haven't seen it tbh, but I meant more as a finisher.

Also, Marella needs a finisher. Or a termination of contract letter. Whichever comes first.
