After taking in a great Remix Pro Wrestling event last night, I've come to the conclusion that entirely too many wrestlers use superkicks as finishers. Yes, I know HBK did it great for years and it still looks sweet when done correctly, but seriously, the very first match of the night was finished with a superkick, and the very last match of the night had Stevie Richards vs. Jay Lethal, so there were a bit too many superkicks flying around.
What other moves tend to be horribly overused in your opinion?

I think lariats are really overused in ROH, but that's just my opinion
I also think that the lung blower (backstabbler) and various variations have to be the most overused move in the indies, if not all wrestling

Kicking in general seems to be a crutch nowadays, especially since hardly anyone can to it without obviously slapping their thigh.

I would second superkicks. What bothers me is not their overuse as finishers, but as striking moves that don't get the pinfall; one of the reasons I don't care for Generation Me/The Young Bucks is their borderline-infuriating overuse of the superkick.

I don't really know what the current finisher epidemic is. I guess kicking does kinda count.
