Well, Wade's been through almost as many finishers as themes, but this begs the question FANnies, which is better?

Wasteland.
The BullHammer would've been better off as the set up for the Wasteland. Like BullHammer/Wasteland could be Barrett's Spear/Jackhammer.
The Winds of Change seemed like a Transition Move in Finisher's Clothing.

Never liked Wasteland, precisely because it's a move that you can't hit suddenly like the Bull Hammer. It was a sight to see watching Barrett "souvenir" the heck outta everyone in that gauntlet match on Main Event!
I see Wasteland as more of the 'People's Elbow' or the '5-Knuckle Shuffle' of his repertoire.

I voted for the elbow as it fits his character at the moment even though I always mark for whenever I see that winds of change slam.

The Wadeslam was actually The Wasteland by the way, misheard by someone who did a live fan report on a webpage.
...TALK ABOUT WADESLAM MORE!
Edit: I like the Bull Hammer most of all, good striking finishers are always preferable.

Edit: I like the Bull Hammer most of all, good striking finishers are always preferable. I did wonder, but I've seen people on here refer to his Bossman slam as the Wadeslam, so went with that. Also, the Main Event match was what made me make this thread. The one on Tatsu had me laughing my head off! |

Impressive that the Bullhammer is winning this this poll. It's fairly not developed. I think the move has to look more obvious. it does not look too different from the punches he uses.

At least Kassius Ohno has the "neckbreaker fakeout" setup to his elbow. He does have the ripcord set up. He's just been using the kinda "Outta nowhere!" one the past couple of weeks. |

Fair enough, I have seen a few folk call his Boss Man/Black Hole Slam it so I apologise if it seemed I was just being a pedantic arse. I'd be happy to see an entire Smackdown of Wade Barrett hitting the jobbers of the roster with a variety of past, present, and future finishers. |

My only problem with the Bullhammer is that it doesn't feel like a finisher. If I was new to wrestling and saw him win a match like that, I'd wonder why he didn't win with a finishing move. I guess I've been raised on flashy looking match enders.
It looks more like a mid-match/signature move than a finisher.

Bull Hammer looks awful, an this is coming from a huge Barrett ["Know-it-all" fan]
Go back to WadeSlam, please.

The Bullhammer is a cool name for a weak finisher. Speed up his version of the blackhole slam and call it a day.

I like the bullhammer the best. It's a pretty solid finisher especially when he does the setup where he hooks the arm and spins the guy into it. Never cared for wastleland as it took too long to set up and lacked impact. The winds of change is a good signature/setup move but doesn't work well as a finisher.

To be honest, I think they all kind of suck. But the one that USUALLY looks good is the elbow, but when that thing doesn't have a huge snap or the opponent doesn't bump big for it, it looks so, so weak.

Bullhammer when it has the ripcord set-up.
