1. Kenny Omega - One-Winged Angel

No one gets up from the One-Winged Angel...no one (at least in NJPW)

The One-Winged Angel is the ultimate finisher in today’s wrestling world. Just like Kenta Kobashi’s Burning Hammer, Omega’s OWA has not been kicked out of ever since Omega started wrestling in a major promotion.

It is super-protected; once Omega connects with it, it is virtually guaranteed to lead to a three-count every single time. This is the move that has brought Omega immense success and gave him his biggest wins in NJPW: winning the G1 Climax, pinning Chris Jericho at WK12, and most importantly, giving him his two pinfall victories over ‘Rainmaker’ Kazuchika Okada.

To this date, only one person has ever kicked out of the One-Winged Angel: Kota Ibushi, and this was when both he and Omega were wrestling in DDT, which is a much smaller and more comedy-centric promotion in Japan. That was a long time ago, long before Omega’s main event push ever began.

No one in ROH, NJPW, or any other major promotion has ever kicked out of Omega’s killer finisher.
