Zack Ryder

We start off our list with the Broski, Zack Ryder. Ryder hasn't used the Zack Attack in a while and nowadays prefers using the Broski Boot as a finisher. However, if he does bring it back, it could be a great addition to his offense.

Tye Dillinger

Tye Dillinger hasn't done much since moving to the main roster, but before Tye got called up, he got a devastating new finisher called the Tye Breaker. Before the Tye Breaker, Tye used the Perfect 10 as his finisher which is nowhere as impactful.

#18: Nikki Bella - Bella Buster

Niki Bella

I've never been the biggest fan of Nikki Bella, but I love her current finisher, the Rack Attack. Before the Rack Attack, the former WWE Divas' Champion used a sitting facebuster called the Bella Buster. Nikki rarely uses the Bella Buster now, and on the rare times she does, it's more of a signature.

#17: Sheamus - High Cross

Sheamus

Remember when Sheamus used his version of the Razor's Edge to finish off an opponent? He called it the High Cross and made it look devastating. Nowadays, Sheamus is using the Brogue Kick as his finisher, but if he were to bring back the High Cross, fans wouldn't complain.

Becky Lynch

Anyone remember Becky Lynch's original submission finisher? No? Even I didn't until I recently watched an old episode of NXT. Becky's original finisher was a reverse Figure-4 Leglock called the Four Leg Clover.

Before the Skull Crushing Finale, there was the Reality Check. The name was a homage to Miz's background in reality television.
