Darren Young used to do a Reverse Full-Nelson Facebuster thing. That was pretty awful.

I wish someone could just use the Irish Whip as a finisher. My brother and I would always joke about that.
Cole:" Oh My God!!!!!! Cena is brining out his new finisher!! He just Irish whipped him into the corner"
1,2,3!!!! Whatamanuever!!!!!

I'm honestly surprised no one has said Legdrop.
Anything where you require a very specific set up like the 619 (which I realize is more often just a setup)
I've said it many times but the Knockout Punch that Big Show does is one of the most pathetic looking punches I've ever seen and yet people sell it like death. It doesn't even look like there's any force to it. I'm reminded of Homer punching that fly and it flying away.
The Killswitch setup just kinda looks awkward and unnecessarily complex.
Never been a fan of superkicks though there are a couple who can do them well enough that I can buy them.
The Rear view. The person literally just runs into her butt.
The Worm is just the People's Elbow with a different setup.
Goldberg's Spear was a finisher originally until he added the Jackhammer. To be honest though he went all out on his spears, listen to DDP talk about taking one.

I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Big Show punches like that due to accidentally f***ing someone up at some point. If you look at the earlier ones, they look more forceful. I can easily imagine that went real badly at least once.

Brad Armstrong had a kinda lame finisher. ANYONE can do a Russian Legsweep.
(This is true, it is a bad finisher, but I am also curious to see if anyone gets the reference)

Lamest finisher ever:
Bushwhacker battering ram.
Bumping into someone while having your partner in a headlock is not a finisher. Or a thing.

The one thing I have against the People's Elbow is the fact it spawned so many imitations. The reason why the Rock got it over because he was the Rock.

Will admit I didn't read the whole thread, but whatever Solomon Crowe did on NXT this past week with that off the ropes, oops I tripped, headbutt into the gut thing he did this week. God damn bearhug looks more believable than that to end a match.

^ I dunno, I like the Ballin' Elbow and the Elbow of Disdain, but Riley's seems too...slow, in that GIF at least. Like, he was gonna do something else, then forgot what it was when he hit the ropes and quickly dropped an elbow. I'll echo the sentiment expressed by others in this thread though, Crowe's headbutt sucks ass. IIRC, didn't his finisher in the indies used to be a headlock driver, ergo why Ambrose used it for a while? And I think he used a Stretch Muffler too whilst kicking the dude in the head. Honestly, either of them would be better, although doing the Muffluh (daddeh!) on Bull would've looked a bit weird. Hopefully they're just saving it for someone smaller.

If Tag Team finishers count, the Fall of Man is beyond terrible.

Cena's AA or whatever they call it these days is terrible. Especially when done slow and pedestrian as often is. Looks and seems to have far less impact than an average body slam.
Peoples elbow- Insulting.

Peoples elbow- Insulting. And yet somehow, it's still better than the original FU, where he literally just shrugged his shoulders and let the guy drop. (I get the point of that, but it was still stupid) As far as the People's elbow, it was SUPPOSED to be an insult, at first. The idea was that the Rock Bottom knocked you out for so long that he could waste time running the ropes and doing his silly elbow drop, and still get a 3 count.
