The Best Finishing Moves in the History of Wrestling

I figured you can't have one with out the other so...

What are some of the best finishers? I am including submission in this because they are finishers.

Here are mine.

Canadian Destroyer ( Simply the most amazing finisher I ever seen )
Diamond cutter/RKO ( I like this better than the stunner because it doesn't need a setup. )
Stunner ( Eh, it's Stone Cold )
Crossface (He always pulls it out of nowhere)
Tombstone ( I picked this one because how brutal it is and how he pins them afterwards,
Jackhammer ( As much as Goldberg sucks, the Jackhammer is pretty cool.)

Any finisher The Hurricane used to use in WCW. Also I really liked the Van Daminator??? (the one Shane did at WM on his father).
The Sharpshooter (when Bret used it, not Rocky lol)
DDT by Jake The Snake
Rude Awakening by Rick Rude
The Swanton Bomb (I like O'hares move better than Hardys)

Stunner and Diamond Cutter for the "out of nowhere" aspect

F5 because it looks so impressive

3D...Best. Tag Team Finisher. Ever

Crippler Crossface...Best. submission move. Ever

Shooting star press. A thing of beauty when done properly.

5-Star Frog Splash because RVD gets so high (get it?) when he does it

Last ride, looks like it hurts like a mutha

Stunner yes, but can't stand diamond cutter/rko. It's just so over elaborate with the flying up in the air part.
Tombstone
Sharpshooter
Crossface
Pedigree
Jackhammer
Anklelock
Pump Handle Slam (if done real well and real quick)

What I liked about the Diamond Cutter was all the different ways DDP used to come up with to hit it.

I remember one time he was fighting the Giant/Big Show, and Giant got him up for a chokeslam, and as he was coming down, DDP grabeed his head and hit a diamond cutter.

The RKO I dont like as much, probably because you see it coming a mile away

I dunno, I have seen Orton pull it out of nowhere a few times. Including the one time he did it and missed and had to do it over again lol.

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

Hahaha...Speaking of Diamond Cutter's while not in the arena...

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

I like the Powerbomb and Superkick the best for a finisher.

Lol, I remember that gimmick. I think DDP was the best when he was in WCW. Him And Kanyon were also tag champs at one point. They use to play old indy shows in ESPN Classic Canada and DDP was an announcer/wrestler and he was pretty good back then too. The matches were not the best seeing how it was an indy and in the 80's.
