After watching some recent matches involving steel chairs it occured to me that they're not as effective as they used to be at keeping the other guy down. I remember watching old matches on Youtube awhile back where a steel chair shot was sold like it was death itself.
So it got me to thinking...what're the most lethal of foreign objects in pro wrestling? What works best at knocking a guy out and keeping him out?
Ladders?
Garbage cans?
Title belts?
Announcer's bell?
...Popcorn bag?
Others?

A female manager's high heel shoe. NO ONE gets up from being hit with one of those!

Title Belt seems to be the strongest. Garbage cans are weakest.

Never doubt a man who always carries a roll of coins, it will bust you open big-time.
Curt Hennig (vs. Nick Bockwinkel, 1987)
Big Bubba Rogers (vs. Ron Garvin, Starrcade '86)
Tully Blanchard (vs. Dusty Rhodes, once again Starrcade '86)

I'd have to go with plain ol' wrestling tape...or tape of any kind, so much as it is adhesive and on the fist of one Hacksaw Jim Duggan.

Title belts. Also, brass knucks seem to do the trick. I'm sure someone has no sold them at some point, but I've never seen it.

Right before the NWO invasion, it seemed like a cup of coffee to the face was the kiss of death in WCW.

Before donning his ring attire, Tojo Yamamoto used to wear dark suits, shoes and a bowler hat back in the heyday of the Memphis promotion-think "Oddjob" in the the James Bond movie, Goldfinger.
During (one of the numerous) run-ins from the back to bail out a fellow face/heel from a beat down, nothing was more feared than when Tojo would pull off one of his big, black wingtip shoes and use it as a club to smash guys over the head. Lance Russell and Dave Brown sold those shoes like nuclear weapons. They had to bring in the paramedics to carry the victims of Tojo's shoe out on stretchers to the ambulances that Lance solemnly pronounced to be waiting at the door to go to the nearby Baptist hospital.
Another example of Memphis Awesomeness.

I know you wouldn't really count it as a foreign object per se, but the announce table; more specifically going through it. There seem to be a lot of matches where going through the announce table takes you out of the match for a good 5-10 minutes.

Title belts, and those "knucks" that are just those pin cushions from a sewing kit.

Curt Hennig (vs. Nick Bockwinkel, 1987) Big Bubba Rogers (vs. Ron Garvin, Starrcade '86) Tully Blanchard (vs. Dusty Rhodes, once again Starrcade '86) Don't forget Randy Savage winning the IC title from Chico Santana with them. |

I remember one match involving Bubba Ray where his offense consisted of juggling and then hitting his opponent with... oranges.
