Edge & The Spear

He needs a new finisher or he needs to get better at delivering the Spear. His version looks poor & sometimes looks like a running hug. It looks even worse when you compare it to other's.

Gail Kim does a great spear in terms of Female wrestling anyway.

A few years ago Chris Harris did a vicious spear that looked like it would finish a match.

Rhino's Gore is one of the best looking Spears even if he doesnt get much contact.

And the best delivery of a Spear & what Edge should model his after. Goldberg. His spear looked like it could kill you. Compare his with Edge's & Edge's is no longer believeable as a finisher at any level.

Edge is a really good wrestler, great promo guy & a brilliant heel, but his finishers are too weak for a Main Eventer.

ya I agree, Edge can use the move, but just as a set up move or just a trademark of his. He is too small IMO to use the Spear as his finisher.

yeah i agree as well, but what move could he have... THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL i less than sign three that move

Considering the amount of kickouts from finishers... "Believability" isn't an issue that pertinent in my mind.

Goldberg had the best spear of all time as mentioned

I suppose it's all in the selling. Edge could have the best finisher in the world but if the other guy makes it look like shite...

He does build up to it rather well too

I don't like the spear of Edge. Goldberg was better in this move.

I know the spear is getting so old with edge and he does it so bad.

edge needs to go bak to the old days where he had the edgomatic or whatever it was called i agree the spear looks way to weak edge is to small to pull it off properly he needs somthing fast that can be pulled out of nowhere even if he uses the spaer to set that move up
