Canadian Destroyer (amazing. Visually its superb and it looks like a seriously damaging move)
Tombstone Piledriver (it fits well with 'taker's gimmick and the pin afterwards is great)
The Vertebreaker (Hurricane's finisher in WCW, an inverted piledrivery type move)
The Spanish Fly (the SATs tag team finisher)
The Last Ride (when done with the drop to the knees at the end of it for extra drop and harder impact)
Styles Clash (not seen a move like it anywhere)
Justin Credible's 'Thats Incredible' Spinning Tombstone Piledriver

I'm a big fan of the Cutter/RKO. I really loved how Orton countered the Pedigree into the RKO at Survivor Series. It looked like HHH had already started jumping into the Pedigree, and the next second he's flat out from the RKO. Classic.

The Vertebreaker.

Jason Cross' Crossfire, which is a Shooting Star Press that carries on further into a Leg Drop. Simply amazing.

The Russian Neckbreaker, like the kids do from the roof in that botched moves video.

The Roll o' The Dice is pretty cool too, as is the Final Cut.

And finally, the Shining Wizard, but only when it's performed by the Japanese guy who invented it. It looks so much sicker than the Hurricanes version.



Oh, and Narc, the Van Daminator is where he throws the chair to his opponent, then spin kicks it into their face. The corner to corner dropkick into the chair is the Van Terminator. I think Shane-o called it the Mac Terminator. He has the imagination of his sister, clearly.

:o The Roll of the Dice! Reno's old WCW finisher, that brilliant too! Didn't like the way Test used to hit it. Called it the 'Testdrive' :S What a crappy name

The RKO I dont like as much, probably because you see it coming a mile away
i agree here w/ these comments. love the stunner, like the diamond cutter b/c they both come out of nowhere. don't like rko
i liked the f5
there are alot of moves used in tna, both in singles and double team moves that are great but i don't know many of the names. just a lot of great stuff in tna, even when i have the volume up, i usually can't hear what they're saying.
my favorite is the canadian destroyer. damn that move is insane.

In the dying days of WCW, Kanyon had a gimmick where he imitated DDP. He wore the same clothes, wore a blond mullet wig, did all his moves and gestures and stuff. So on Nitro one week they had one of those "outside the arena" shots where they just show you what arena they're at. Far off in the distance there was some guy walking by and out of nowhere Kanyon came out and gave him the Diamond Cutter. That was freaking hysterical

Kanyon was underated to me. Lots of great moves. I believe they called him the "Innovator of offense"

But ya, DDP was the master at being able to do it while not even being in the arena lol.

When he hit it on Benoit at Summerslam and also on Foley at Mania. Those came out of nowhere.

You do realize that the RKO and the Diamond cutter are the exact same move right? And that Orton has many times pulled it out of nowhere?

I don't see where people say the Stunner is out of nowhere. That is BS. He has to kick them in the gut first before he can even do it so you know it is coming and so should everyone one else on the planet earth. Saying it is out of no where is not logical. The RKO (exact same thing as Diamond Cutter ) is done out of nowhere and has no set up.
