The Phoenix Splash - Who Did It Best?

#4 Low Ki

The man once known as Kaval in WWE is one of the most underrated wrestlers to ever wrestle in WWE. His WWE run was horribly underwhelming and he could’ve accomplished so much had he been given the chance to show off his skills.

Outside WWE, he was known for being an amazing high-flying wrestler that could do almost anything.

One of the best moves in Low Ki’s arsenal was his Phoenix Splash. What made his so great was the height he’d get. While most wrestlers would jump off the top rope mostly forward before turning into the splash, Low Ki would jump even higher, flying in a huge arc before landing on his opponent.

His Phoenix Splash was said to be so impressive that all it took was one execution for him to get bookings for Japanese promotion Pro Wrestling NOAH for years.

It almost looks like he slows down in mid-air or completely defies gravity based on how he gets so much air and so many body rotations in such a short amount of time.

If Low Ki – or Kaval, as he was known as in WWE – had been given a chance to use this move while on SmackDown, there’s a chance he might’ve experienced more success during that short run.
