#6. Best Moonsault Ever - Christopher Daniels
Type of Maneuver: Top rope body press
Who invented the move: Mando Guerrero, but it was popularized by Great Muta.
Description: To perform a moonsault, one must first have a prone opponent. Then one ascends to the top rope with their back facing the ring, and performs a backflip, landing on the fallen foe.
Strengths: Leads directly into a pin, one of the quicker top rope moves, spectacular.
Weaknesses: Must turn back on the opponent to perform the move.
The Moonsault is a spectacular aerial move that involves leaping backward off the top rope, completing one backflip rotation, and landing on the prone opponent in a pinfall lateral press. Mando Guerrero, of the famous Guerrero family (whose members include Eddie and Chavo), invented the move, but the Great Muta popularized it. Some would say that Christopher Daniels perfected it.
