The other fun thing about the Stunner is how it relies heavily on the opponent selling it, so it looks a bit different each time. Some people just crumple, some people jolt backwards, and the Rock flops around like a madman. It adds an extra level of enjoyment, judging how good the sell is.

It’s because, and try not to take this the hard way, the sharpshooter is a basic submission move.

Memorable as in….it didn’t make you go “holy hell how did he do that!?”. Cause let’s be real we were putting our friends and siblings in sharpshooters back then lol.

Kawada went for a power bomb, but he couldn't lift Misawa properly due to being tired and apparently having *broken his arm* earlier in the match. Misawa tried to reverse the powerbomb into a Frankensteiner, but something went wrong and Kawada kept holding him up. Then either Kawada finally gave out or decided to go through with the powerbomb even though Misawa was now out of position, dropping Misawa on his head.

Controversial opinion, but the best finishers are the ones that can be countered. It shouldn't be easy, maybe it relies on circumstances to be counterable, but it makes no sense to have a finisher that is uncounterable. Either that, or you have to have specific circumstances in order to use the finisher. Otherwise, you're in the position of "really? You could have done that at any time and ended this in the first minute." Devastating is good, and awesome, but devastating has to used with discretion, or else the suspension of disbelief needed for pro-wrestling goes out the window.

Jericho's size was not why he was overlooked during the late Attitude Era, it was who he was going against. Stone Cold, the Rock were the top two for me and I believe most, Undertaker, Triple H, Kurt Angle were all third, fourth and fifth and who came what could be debatable and the results would be right. Then you got Shawn Micheals returning, you got Mankind, Kane, Benoit and Eddie Guerreror. Shawn, Eddie, Edge and many others were not super heavy weights, so claiming it was his size is well bullshit. It was a stack card of superstars that not even Hogan with his backstage politics could nudge his way to the top.

I might be alone here but I have no time for the Judas Effect and can't understand why anyone is OK with it. The basics of a good finisher are that it should be something that either no else uses the move *not* as a finisher, or yours looks like it hits harder than theirs. So if you have Kevin Nash doing a powerbomb from his (supposed) 7 feet tall that's ideal. Likewise Lashley can get away with a move as basic as a full nelson because of his crazy physique and JBL with a lariat because it looked/was stiff as f*ck. For moves done by fewer wrestlers (tombstone piledriver, sharpshooter, etc) it doesn't matter so much so long as they look reasonably painful. Other moves show off a mix of agility and power like the claymore or buckshot lariat, and smaller wrestlers can use top rope craziness... but a back elbow?! On pretty much any show that Jericho used it to finish an opponent, you would probably have seen someone bigger, stronger or heavier striking with an elbow without getting a pin. It's not quite AJ Lee winning with a banzai drop but it always looks so weak to me.
