5 WWE Superstars With the Worst Finishing Moves

A wrestler's signature finisher is supposed to be so devastating that their opponent is unable to continue on with the match. While the Attitude Era had plenty of these, there were some wrestlers who only succeeded in making fans scratch their heads when they tried to win with their maneuvers. Let's look at 5 WWE superstars with the worst finishing moves ever!

5. Christian - Impaler

There is no denying that Christian has had a very successful wrestling career. However, why he decided to stick with the Impaler - or known as the Killswitch in modern times - will always be a question. The strange inverted DDT looks more difficult to set up than it is devastating and takes away from him as a performer due to the distraction.

4. Road Dogg - Pumphandle Drop

Road Dogg was able to thrive as a tag team competitor mainly due to hiding his lack of ability behind Billy Gunn's athleticism. Considering that he was able to become a multi-time tag team and singles champion with a poorly executed Pumphandle Drop as a signature maneuver is all that needs to be said to understand.

3. Booker T - Scissor Kick

Despite Booker's natural ability to get over with a crowd, his original finishing maneuver left much to be desired. His jumping Scissor Kick did not seem devastating compared to other performers' moves, and he thankfully adopted the Book End as his main signature and moved this one to the side.

2. The Rock - The People's Elbow

While there is no denying his popularity, the theatrical elbow drop has little devastation to it in comparison to other moves. It is surely only on the back of his undeniable connection to the crowd that it became a fixture of the Attitude Era.

1. The Hurricane - Chokeslam

Behind the mask and cape, Shane Helms was a well-known cruiserweight wrestler who did not possess the muscles of a heavyweight. So to have him execute a chokeslam as his signature move was questionable due to his size, and his gimmick suffered because of it.
