What Finisher Does Trent Beretta Use?

Trent Beretta currently uses either the Gobstopper or Dudebuster as his finishing move. Gobstopper is a devastating knee strike to the opponent’s face while Dudebuster is an equally dangerous back-to-belly piledriver. He previously used the Dudebuster DDT as his finisher.

Gobstopper/Sexy Chucky Knee (2009-Present)

This is a simple yet effective running high knee strike. Trent builds momentum with a running start and connects with a powerful knee to his opponent's face or chest.

Dudebuster/Crunchie (2013-Present)

This is Trent's signature maneuver. It's a devastating cradle back-to-belly piledriver. He lifts his opponent into a position where their back is against his stomach, hooks their legs under his arms, and then drives them down to the mat in a way that lands them directly on their neck or back of the head. To add impact, Trent often follows up with a double foot stomp while holding the opponent pinned.

Dudebuster DDT (2008-2013)

This was a former finisher that Trent has since retired. It involved him lifting his opponent in a fireman's carry position and then transitioning into a twisting DDT (standing neckbreaker).

What is the theme song of Trent Beretta?

In AEW, Trent Beretta used “Best Friends” by Mikey Rukus as his theme song until April 2024. Trent Beretta and Chuck Taylor have been partners since they wrestled in Pro Wrestling Guerilla in 2014. Their team was known as Best Friends. The two stars entered the AEW scene together in 2019 and their theme song was Best Friends by Mikey Rukus.

In April 2024, Trent Beretta turned on Chuck Taylor and dropped Best Friends as his theme song. He has not entered the ring to a new theme song since then. Before joining AEW, Beretta used a few other theme songs as a singles and tag team wrestler.
