I got to thinking a few minutes ago about the best RKO I've ever seen. And that got me pondering, what is the definitive instance of an RKO?
Maybe on RVD? Maybe out of Taker's chokeslam?
Or any finisher for that matter.
For example:
When you picture Taker doing the Tombstone, which one do you see?
So what's your thoughts?
Best Sweet Chin Music?
Best Tombstone?
Best Edge Spear?
Best Go To Sleep?
Best RKO?
Best Swanton?
Best Codebreaker?
And so on....

Best Twist of Fate was Matt Hardy introducing his brother to a Steel Chair at Wrestlemania.
Best Sharpshooter was in Montreal.

My two favourite RKO's; Especially love that second one, since I believe it's the first time he ever hit it like that, and the way he just slid into the ring and hopped up straight into it; loved it. And how he just walked off up the ramp all innocent afterwards.  I miss 2005/6 Orton.  |

During that Raw vs. Cena/Orton match, Cena lifting someone up for the FU into Orton's RKO.
Sweet Chin Music: Bret Hart at WrestleMania 12. Quite epic.

Off the top of my head, my favourite Killswitch/Unprettier was the one on Jericho at Wrestlemania 20. Especially due to Christian's rather pleased grin after he hits it.
The best Peoples' Elbow has to be the sliding one on Bulldog. Just awesome.

My favorite RKO is the one at Unforgiven 06, catching Carlito off the springboard.
Codebreaker, the counter on Punk on Raw last December.
FU or "Attitude Adjuster", the one on HBK at Mania 23 where he rolled through the cross body. (HBK landed on his feet but I always think of that one.)
Pedigree, Rumble 2000, Cactus Jack, thumbtacks!

The FU (Atti-Adju) on Edge from the steps through the announce table was pretty sweet looking.

Why does Orton stand up after hitting Rey only to slide back down and roll out of the ring? It doesn't make any sense at all. The look of utter dejection was the best emotion I've seen out of Orton ever though.

My favorite Tombstone is actually on Austin at IYH: Cold Day in Hell in May of 97. It's the first time I remember seeing the back and forth reversals to the Tombstone where the opponent almost hits it on Undertaker.

Its a shame Austin broke his neck so he couldnt risk a tombstone anymore (Undertaker always chokeslammed rather than tombstoned Austin after this didnt he?) www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBvWcBSbG5g |

Stunner- The Wrestlemania XIV match with Michaels. He goes for the Sweet Chin Music, Austin catches it, spins him and hits the stunner. Tyson slides in for the count.

btw even tho many people seem to love it, the all time dumbest lookin stunner is the one on Scott Hall when he doesnt drop to his knees and jumps back about 5 feet in the air. It also annoyed me that Austin had to stuner him twice in a row

The best 5 Star Frogsplash Rob Van Dam ever hit in WWE was in October of 2001 on SmackDown leading into his No Mercy match with Kurt Angle and Steve Austin. Angle and Austin are both on the mat, and RVD is on the top rope. The announcers are making it out that Angle is about to get nailed because RVD is a member of the Alliance. Then Rob jumps and flies over Angle and nails Steve Austin who's damn near all the way across the ring.
