The 'AA': It has mutated from a Death Valley Driver (which loooks fantastic when done correctly), to a Fireman's Carry Takeover to a move I didn't even notice had been used in the last Cena/Owens match. It was almost like Owens had tripped over or something. I'm not being a dick here, but so many people say this, and I have never once seen him do it as a DVD. It's always been a fireman's carry slam when I've seen him do it. Do you have any footage of it being a DVD? As for finishers, the Worm doesn't suck because it was over. Least effective looking? Sure. But wrestling is about crowd reactions above all else, and people loved the Worm and cheered when he did it. If it wasn't so over, I would also cite the 619 simply because I hate how it looks - but it's at least more logical as a finisher than the immediate follow up, which was the world's smallest man jumping on people. At Survivor Series 2005, Big Show takes like six finishers in a row and the one that finally finishes him off is a man less than a third of his size landing on him from three feet up. This. Also sometimes, the AA can look devastating. Depends if Cena half asses it or not. I think ones he did on Batista and Miz stand out.

I have always hated the neutralizer. The rest of his offense is high impact innovative strength based majesty. Then he awkwardly picks someone up slowly and lightly drops them on their knees.

The Curb Stomp.
It's just a foot stomp on the back of the head.

Solomon Crow's rebound splash from about 6 inches off the floor. Yeah this. First time I saw it I was like "What on earth is that." Ricky Ortiz doing a standing splash when he wasn't that big a guy, looked better. Even Byron's half nelson mcf***nothing is better than that. He looks more like he's slipping and landing on his face than anything. Edit: Also count me in for the Neutralizer too. I love Cesaro, the Neutralizer is his least impressive move and only looks any good when done on ridiculously big guys like Khali/Show/Henry. Otherwise he should be using his popup uppercut or alpamare waterslide. I'd like to see him do the Ricola but now that KO is doing powerbombs that ain't happening.

About 17 seconds into this (on Guerrero) is probably as close as you'll get - YouTube: "WWE John Cena Ultimate Attitude Adjustment Compilation" TBH i'm just going from memory from BITD - Of course there's always the argument that he always meant it to be a DVD but his lack of coordination prevented him pulling it of as such.......

That'd be a pretty ridiculous argument to make in the latter case, but if you've only got one close example, I'll still look it up.

Umaga's thumb to the neck.
Seems like it'd hurt him more than his opponent.

Any answer that isn't the Overdrive is the wrong answer. Move is shit. Even when done right, it's shit.

Umaga's thumb to the neck. Seems like it'd hurt him more than his opponent. Not for me. If something just half brushes against my adams apple it's agony! Probably one of the most painful or dangerous things of all if wrestling moves were done for real.

Go 2 sleep(not Muta's KENTA'S, though).
More like "Put me 2 sleep".

I was trying to think of horrible finishers to gif, then I remembered this happened... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} So many easy jokes to make here. 'Why is Nash falling over for no reason?' I could go for the less obvious 'Nash actually taking a bump? Where the f*** did you find this?' Instead, I'm going to sit here and stare at you awkwardly.

Big Show's WMD. An extremely regular looking punch that sometimes isn't as showy as the regular punches that are shrugged off earlier in the match. 500lb guy hitting you right in the face with all his weight behind it. Yeah, sorry....that's pretty realistic

This. Seriously he didn't seem to even hit it most of the time.
