5 of lamest finishing moves that have been seen in the WWE

For every finishing move that is devastating, there’s another one round the corner that looks like it doesn’t hurt very much.

#3 KO Punch

Strike finishes don’t really work in the world of professional wrestling.

In an era in wrestling where wrestlers are already punching and striking each other in every match, strike finishers just make no sense. If the Big Show can knock out a person with his KO punch, why doesn’t he just use that move at the beginning of the match instead of throwing ‘normal punches’. At least, with the Samoan Spike, Umaga made it look brutal and props to him for that.

Even in an age where MMA is becoming increasingly more mainstream, strike finishers like the KO punch and Samoan Spike are really lame in the world of professional wrestling which is as much about showmanship as realism.
