Top 10 finishing moves in Pro Wrestling

#5 Undertaker's Tombstone Piledriver

Hoisting his opponent up into the body slam position, Taker turns them so they are pointed headfirst on the mat and then drops them straight down. A tricky move, the Tombstone is easy to botch, which could either result in something downright silly looking or extremely dangerous for the man being dropped.
