I've never been a fan of Gabriel's 450 splash I feel it looks horrible. Are there any other guys past and present who performed some moves and finishers horribly?

Ryback's, purely for the awkward setup/lift.

Why does he always have to do the march For the same reason any other wrestler put a little flash into their moves.

Not arguing, just curious, what do you think is sloppy about his 450? The last one he did on TV wasn't as good looking as he usually does, but what made up for it was how impressed I was that he was able to pull off the full rotation because he didn't get much height because he was going for distance because his opponent (I think it was Barrett) was further away than he's used to. I think Kevin Nash always had a lazy, shitty looking Powerbomb.

Alicia Foxs axe kick. Not sloppy, but Edges spear always looked stupid.

Petey Williams and that STUPID rolling arm taunt he'd do before the Canadian Destroyer when he'd have the guy in the powerbomb set-up position... Now JBL would do a cigar taunt thing, Diesel would do the horn pulling motion, many guys could do a taunt from this position, then pull off the move, so that's not my issue. Petey's dumbass would do his taunt and I swear, 50% of the time while he's doing the taunt, his opponent would escape the set up. I'd put money on him having the worst ratio of finisher set-up to finisher execution of anyone in wrestling. The move was cool, though completely unbelievable, but it made the guy look like a moron that couldn't hit his move because he just had to do his stupid little rolling arm taunt.

Lita's moonsault was really sloppy, but I always kinda liked that.

I really liked Nash's powerbomb. It really fit with the character that he knew his height would be enough, so he didn't have to put the extra effort into slamming the opponent down.
I hate to say it, but the Zig-Zag often looks terrible

Wade Barrett's Wasteland finisher. It just looks lame and poorly executed, even when he does it right. Was going to post this. The elbow KO looks much better. I'll add the Zig-Zag. Not an especially good looking move.

I mean, who wrestles a 10+ minute but manages to climb up and perform their finisher to perfection like they're a gymnast preparing all day for one movement. I mean, fair enough if it's in an impromptu brawl or just when they enter the royal rumble, by all means hit it perfectly.

The march doesn't scream FLASH to me, though, it looks like he just took a shit and didn't wipe his ass thoroughly enough, causing an irritating itch. I think Kevin Nash always had a lazy, s***ty looking Powerbomb. Diesel's jackknife was awful. But the Kevin Nash powerbomb really looked awesome during his time in WCW.

Definitely not a fan of the Wasteland.
But I will throw my hat in the ring as a fan of Ryback's stomping.

Billy Kidman's shooting star press. It's like he pushed off with his toes to do it and never got any distance or air.

This far in and no one has mentioned the Pedigree? Granted, the original version is a really bad idea, and it's over as hell, but the current version is still pretty sloppy looking. For the same reason any other wrestler put a little flash into their moves. While we're on it, let's talk about finisher taunts. Petey Williams and that STUPID rolling arm taunt he'd do before the Canadian Destroyer when he'd have the guy in the powerbomb set-up position... Now JBL would do a cigar taunt thing, Diesel would do the horn pulling motion, many guys could do a taunt from this position, then pull off the move, so that's not my issue.

The move was cool, though completely unbelievable, but it made the guy look like a moron that couldn't hit his move because he just had to do his stupid little rolling arm taunt. I'm surprised there haven't been more headbutt to the groin spots during powerbomb set-up taunts.

Otunga's spinebuster and the Full Nelson Lock Slam that Mason Ryan was using for a while.
I also remember Jinder Mahal doing a Full Nelson Slam to Kozlov and the mat didn't even make a sound.

I hate to say it, because I don't think it will be popular, but I hate the Go To Sleep. Hate it.
