The Double-Arm DDT - Who Did It Best?

Some moves are so simple yet can still be so devastating

#4 Mick Foley

Most people don't know this, but Foley had more than just Mr. Socko as his finisher

Socko as his finisher

Whether he was wrestling as Mankind or as himself, Mick Foley had two finishers that he used to end his matches. His primary finisher was the Mandible Claw, which was terrifying at first because it was based on a real nerve hold that could cause immense pain.

That move became more of a joke in later years because of the addition of Mr. Socko, so Foley added another move to his arsenal: the double-arm DDT. Foley hit it well, but there was something unrealistic about the way he hit it’.

Fans drowned out a popular wrestler with 'She's a racist' chants recently

Foley never looked like the strongest wrestler, so when he fell backwards, it barely looked like he was putting any power into the move. Because of that, Foley’s Double-Arm DDT didn’t look that powerful.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Foley hitting the move didn’t take off, and it wasn’t long before he went back to pulling a sock out of his pants and jamming it into someone’s mouth. Wrestling sure can be weird sometimes.
