Rants

Worst finisher ever?

By Scott Keith on 27 January 2016


Since the 90s so ruling out belly claws and 70s era bear hugs, is Strowman’s standing hug the worst finisher ever? Especially since it’s sold as a death move by the announcers. He just hugs you until you pass out! Khali did a tree slam at least. Crush’s head vice was stupid but looked cool when I was 11. If not Braun’s loving embrace, then what?

​Sgt. Slaughter’s Atomic Noogie is pretty high up there for me as well, but certainly Brawny Strongman’s "choke" is a strong contender. ​
