Amongst the slew of powerbombs and their variances being used these days, are there any finishers that stand out as being awesome?
For me it definately has to be Victoria's Widows Peak. It just looks awesome and you know it fúcking hurts. Probably the most original move on the roster today.
Other honourable mentions: Test Drive and that DDT thing that Jamie Noble has been seen doing.. with the opponents legs on the top rope. You know the one.
I always thought that the "Rikishi Driver" was a nasty move. Too bad it was used by Rikishi.
I believe that move has been banned.

Why the hell would the move be banned? It's not like other piledriver's where the head actually comes very CLOSE to hitting the mat. In fact, the head is usually a few feet (noticeably) away from the mat.
__________________ When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the country not enter the city. For this is the time of punishment in fullfillment of all that has been written. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and be taken as prisoners to all nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
...At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.

Mainly because theres the capacity for someone to be seriously injured. Same story as the Tombstone Piledriver (where you push up on the guys thighs as he drops you downward to create that 'impact'). Both are safe when done correctly, but can result in potentially serious injury. I hear WWE are also toning down the use of the overhead belly to belly suplex because of the recent spate of neck injuries.
Theres so many finishers out there that I would personally love to have seen wrestlers use. Justin Credible's 'Thats Incredible' spinning tombstone piledriver, Jerry Lynns Cradle Piledriver, The Brainbuster that Eddie Guererro used to use as a setup for the Frog Splash, that looked awesome (I guess its not a finisher, but its a 'banned' move id love to see used again because it looked so damn vicious!). Even the crucifix powerbomb (although D'Lo showed how it SHOULDNT be done when paralysing Droz). That move was visually spectacular.

As far as submission finishers go (which could proably be a thread in itself), the sharpshooter rules. There was this one time Benoit and Jericho teamed, and Jericho put someone into the walls, and Benoit flew in beside him and applied the crossface to the same guy. That was pretty cool.
Widows Peak is awesome, as is her standing moonsault
I also always liked Jerichos lionsault

That thing looked SO much better when Jericho jammed his knee into his opponents back and looked like he'd snap the guys neck any second. Heck of a move!
The Jericho - Benoit thing was done on Stone Cold in the middle of his ill-fated heel run just after WMX7. I think they used it a few times when tagging too, just before when HHH tore his quad in THAT tag match.
I'd also like to see the return of the "Vertebreaker".

I remeber that. That was when Benoit and Jericho had a handicapp or something match against the Undertaker. That was a cool submission

If anyone watches TNA, the Spanish Fly by the SAT's was the first move in years that made me go 'Holy sh*t that looks cool'
They get their opponent on the top turnbuckle, climb up, and essentially hit a dual belly-to-belly on him, except they both hit moonsaults, so they ride over with him. It bloody rocks! Plus Amazing Red has some much good moves. The guys got like 15 finishers.
