The BarDown crew is back for another quiz, this time venturing into the squared-circle! Sure, everyone knows Stone Cold Steve Austin's finishing move (except Jesse)...but do you know Scotty 2 Hotty's?
He technically was in the attitude era for like a month and a half, but I agree with you that he shouldn't be on this list same with Mark Henry, even though he was in the Attitude Era but Worlds Strongest Slam wasn't so no idea why this Attitude Era Finishers list has finishers from outside the Attitude Era
The problem is more with the finisher they went with FOR Mark Henry. The World's Strongest Slam was his finisher starting in around 2006. If I recall, his finisher back in the Attitude Era was some kind of submission, I THINK the Bear Hug.
Dave Tugwell I didn't say Henry shouldn't have been on the list but the worlds strongest slam shouldn't have been since it wasn't debuted until the ruthless aggression era
ScottyDoezntKnow For real, and I was never a fan of Dean, but the dude was a skilled wrestler. To act like he's irrelevant just because he didn't know him was pretty disrespectful. "Who is Dean Melinko?!" Nah son, who the fuck are you?
1. Brock Lesnar was a staple of the beginning of the *Ruthless* *Aggression* *Era* , not the Attitude Era. 2. The Chokeslam was one of the Undertaker's *signatures* during the Attitude Era. The Tombstone was his finish during the beginning of the Attitude Era, but the *Last Ride* was his finish during the latter half. 3. (Though this may be nit-picky) Kane's move was called the Chokeslam from *HELL* , and he used the *Tombstone Piledriver* at the very beginning. 4. The Big Show also used the *Final Cut* briefly as a finisher. 5. Goldberg was not apart of the Attitude Era, as he was with WCW. Plus his *finisher* was the *Jackhammer* . The Spear was a signature *set-up move* . 6. Edge also used the *Edgecution* (originally called the *Buzzkiller* ) as a finisher. 7. The Stinkface was Rikishi's *signature* , not his finisher. His finishers were the *Banzai Drop* & the *Rikishi Driver* . 8. DDP was not apart of the Attitude Era, as he was with *WCW* at the time. He came just afterwards. 9. Lita's moves were called the Twist of Fate, the *Litasault* , & the *Lita DDT* . 10. If RVD (an original *ECW* staple) was in the video, it wouldn't have be right because he wasn't apart of the Attitude Era. He came along just after it had ended.
It's funny how you say Angle's medals got progressively more fake looking, but in the end of his original run with the green ribbon ones when he did the Olympic challenge were his legit medals.
I didn’t miss one PLUS Swanton/Twist Of Fate isn’t called “Poetry In Motion”, it’s called “Extreme Combination”. PIM was Matt on all fours while Jeff hops off his back and basically leg drops a standing opp in the corner...
FYI Rikishi had two other Finishers that he occasionally used. He used the Rumpshaker aka his version of his cousin Yokozuna's Banzai Drop and the Rikishi Driver his own modified piledriver. And Eddie Guerrero had the Three Amigos (Triple vertical suplexes) and a crazy leg lock submission hold he called The Lasso from El Paso. Undertaker briefly used a few other finishing moves Hells Gate which is a modified Gogoplata submission hold, Last Ride elevated Powerbomb and a standing Dragon Sleeper. Kurt Angle also used the Olympic Slam and Brock Lesnar had his own submission hold he called the Brock Lock. When Stone Cold Steve Austin was known as The Ringmaster he used The Million Dollar Dream as his finisher. The Rock back in the day when he was just a rookie Rocky Maivia used a Shoulder Breaker as a finisher. Chris Jericho used The Code Breaker, Lionsault, and The Breakdown as finishers at various times in his career.
They did not mention the undertakers last ride, Kurt Angles Olympic slam, Kane tombstone, Mankind double arm ddt, Matt hardy leg drop, Edgecution, Eddies El Paso, Rikishi Driver, Trish stratus kick or chick kick, Lol !!!
man so many alt finishes for guys, big show went through a brief period using "the final cut", his finish has been a punch for the past 7 years. edge began with the impaler ddt, later changed to the edgecution. he also had the edgecation which was some fucked up, sideways looking sharpshooter. matt hardy side effect when he was version 1. these dudes all forgot the last ride for taker, his main finish for about 3-4 years and still used after. jericho hasn't won with the walls in about 5 years, or the lionsault in 10, all codebreaker now.
ryan phillips These were *Attitude Era* finishers. The Big Show's moves ( *during the Attitude Era* ) were the *Show-stopper* (Chokeslam) & the *Final Cut* for example.
Lol no the Impaler was Edge's and Gangrel's DDT finisher. If Christian ever used that briefly as a finisher I don't remember but the Unprettier was definitely his primary finisher if you look at the whole attitude era (1996-2001/2)
