5 AEW stars who need a new finisher

4. AEW star Wardlow’s powerbomb

MJF's henchman Wardlow also needs a new finisher. Wardlow is a giant who possesses explosive athleticism. However, we haven’t seen much from him inside the AEW ring. He has only appeared in a handful of matches to this date. Recently, he has been using the “powerbomb symphony” to squash enhancement talents.

A good finisher is not required to be used multiple times in a match. The idea is to present Wardlow as a ruthless force who only cares about hurting opponents. The use of multiple powerbombs takes away the edge of the powerbomb. Powerbombs have also been overly used in pro wrestling. Wardlow definitely needs a convincing power move as his new finisher. His F-10 would be a good choice.

3. Orange Cassidy’s Orange Punch and Beach Break

Love him or hate him, Orange Cassidy always draws a reaction from the crowd. He is the perfect example of how modern wrestling fans influence booking decisions. He plays a reluctant “stoner” like persona, and is an underdog babyface who loves to play mind games with his opponents.

Orange Cassidy is by no means a muscular hunk. He is the smaller guy in most cases and it is not believable for him to knock out bigger men with a single punch. As for the Beach Break, it appears weak because it is kicked out of too often. A smaller comedic underdog like him does not need a high-impact finisher. A convincing roll up out of nowhere will do the job.
