#4 Khallas (former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal) / Dream Street (Ted Dibiase Jr.)

The Million Dollar Man of WWE used a Cobra Clutch as his finisher. When his son entered the WWE ring, he started paying tribute to his father by hooking the Cobra Clutch on his opponents before slamming them for the pinfall. Ted Dibiase Jr. called his finisher the Dream Street.

When Jinder Mahal returned to WWE, Rusev was already using his old Camel Clutch to perfection. He then started using the same move as Dibiase Jr., naming it the Khallas. Khallas means 'finished' in multiple Indian languages.

Mahal was more successful with the move as it proved to be a well-protected finisher during his unlikely run as the WWE Champion.


#3 Skull-Crushing Finale (former WWE Champion The Miz) / Breakdown (former WWE Champion Chris Jericho)

Chris Jericho and Grandmaster Sexay used the same finisher in the early 2000s. Sexay, who has been using it for a long time, called it Sexay Facebuster. Jericho, who had more success with the finisher, called it the Breakdown.

The sweeping match-ender is currently used by The Miz, who is one of the most versatile superstars in the company today. Although it isn't the most visually impactful finisher, he has used it to much success and it's certainly better than his horrendous version of the Figure-four Leglock.
