Top Five Wrestling Moves of all time.

Arn Anderson Spinebuster



Arn Anderson is probably my favorite wrestler of all time. "The Enforcer" wasn't just a moniker for "Double A," it was a way of life. He was part of the greatest stable of all time, and his spinebuster was the prototype for HHH and Batista's.

Van Terminator



RVD in his prime (during the late '90s ECW days) dropped some sick finishers. His "rolling thunder" was always one of my favorites, but the Van Terminator made the ECW crowds yell "Holy Shit!" more than a lot of other sick moves during the "Extreme" heyday.

Tombstone Piledriver



Since the days of the original "Rock" Don Muraco, the reverse, or tombstone, piledriver has been a devastating move. Ask Stone Cold Steve Austin, a reverse piledriver done incorrectly can paralyze. Done correctly, however, it's a move from which no one kicks out.

Stone Cold Stunner



The Stunner typified the WWE's "Attitude Era." The Stone Cold Stunner could be dropped on someone quickly, whether they were 180 pounds or 400 pounds, with pretty much the same effect. Your back on the mat, and Austin in your face, telling you he just kicked your ass.

Canadian Destroyer



While the Canadian Destroyer isn't the most well-known move, just take a look at the freakin' thing! You act like you're going to drop a piledriver on someone. All of a sudden, you flip over their back while still holding them, and launch their head into the mat.

Hope you enjoyed the post. Let me know about your favorite moves.

Terrific post!

One of my favories was the Frankensteiner.

No one could hit an enzuigiri out of nowhere like Owen Hart.

He made it look so easy...and painful.

Ah yes, the enzuigiri. I believe it was Bad News Brown who I first saw use the move.

Owen Hart was an awesome wrestler. I thought his asai moonsault was one of the best in the game.
