The Powerbomb - Who Did It Best?

2. Kota Ibushi

Ibushi's hits this move perfectly, and it looks like it hurts like hell

Despite spending most of his career as a cruiserweight jumping off of things, Kota Ibushi has recently made the transition to the heavyweight division. To prove this point, he started using more power-based and lifting moves, which includes the Golden Star Bomb, a sitout version of the Last Ride.

As we have seen before, the Last Ride itself is a vicious, horrifying move. If you ever listen to the move being hit, the impact is one of the loudest you’ll ever hear in a wrestling ring. But Ibushi takes things one step further by sitting down as his opponent is driven into the mat.

This action gives him the illusion of greater control and more impact, which in turn makes it look like the move is more effective than a standard Last Ride. Height doesn’t even matter in this case because Ibushi has perfect technique to execute this move flawlessly and without worrying if his opponent is too heavy to lift all the way up.
