5 most protected WWE finishers in 2017

The Spear has been one of the most incredibly protected moves since WrestleMania 33

#1 End Of Days

Baron Corbin's start-stop push hasn't affected The End Of Days

Baron Corbin's had an interesting year. He began getting a big, main event level push when he made the best elimination of Royal Rumble 2017 by eliminating Braun Strowman. His success would continue when he was in an Intercontinental title match on the pre-show of WrestleMania against Dean Ambrose, albeit in an unsuccessful attempt.

Corbin seemed to be a guaranteed future world champion when he won the Money In The Bank briefcase in June 2017. However, something went wrong (whether it's backstage issues or something else, you decide) and his push just halted, becoming the third person to ever unsuccessfully cash in the MITB.

He was in a SummerSlam match against John Cena, which on paper does sound good, right? Wrong. The match just looked like Cena burying Corbin in the most hilarious manner, even ending Cena's seven-year SummerSlam losing streak.

Corbin did recover by winning the United States title, but his push continues to look like start and stop. That being said, his finisher, The End Of Days has been incredibly protected, dating back to his NXT days. Till date, no one in WWE has ever kicked out of The End Of Days.

The only other Superstar in WWE to not have their finisher kicked out of since their NXT days is Neville. The Red Arrow has never been kicked out of in WWE. The closest to it was Seth Rollins putting his foot on the rope during a WWE title match against Neville. However, we won't count him on the list due to his up-in-the-air WWE status.
