#4 CM Punk

CM Punk was known to have a decisive finishing maneuver but looked hard to perform against larger wrestlers. Many wrestling gurus had suggested over the years that CM Punk should come up with another finisher to use for larger men, however, Punk wasn't in favor of that.

This resulted in a botched attempt when he decided to apply the move to WWE’s Demon.

Punk decided to finish off Kane with the Go To Sleep and lifted the big man up on his shoulders. Even though Kane came down in the right position to take the knee, it seemed like Punk was unable to get his knee up at the right time and in position probably due to Kane’s weight and size.

This ended up with Punk going down with the big man and making a fool of himself, while the referee proceeded to kneel down for the three count, only to see that Punk was in no position to cover Kane.
