With the introduction of a new finisher on Raw I got me thinking of how many different finishers Y2J has used in WCW and WWE (ok, mostly WWE) and figured I'd toss this up to see which was your personal favourite. I always liked the Liontamer myself, better then the Walls variation. How about you guys?

Liontamer easily. That sumbitch looked painful (probably because it was).

I voted Walls of Jericho. In the E, he was allowed to use it a lot more as a surprise counter move. Good way to break up the pace of a match.

Liontamer. I was actually pretty upset when he switched to the Walls...

Can someone remind me when he used the Flashback as a finisher?
I'm drawing a blank.

What's the Lion Tamer, again? I can't quite remember An elevated Boston Crap where the reviever is lying more on their neck than stomache. Jericho also used to push one of his knees in their backs. |

He would put one of his knees on the back of the guy's neck.Pretty decent shot of it at the very end of this video. |

Just to clarify what my interpretations of "Walls" and Liontamer is that the Liontamer was the high angle elevated crab with a knee in the back or back of neck he used in WCW and first month or two of WWF, whereas the Walls was the elevated crab that eventually basically just became a boston crab by the end of his WWE run.
Also, I don't think the used a proper Shining Wizard, you're likely thinking the step up enziguri. As for the double powerbomb, I do remember him doing it but I don't think it was ever a finisher.

Now just to clarify. The breakdown was that move that looked like the stroke right?

yeah, the Breakdown was a fullnelson face buster, so pretty similar to the Stroke. And incase anyone needs clarifying the Flashback was the sleeper slam/running sleeper slam from mid to late 2001

I guess he had to stop doing that high angle liontamer because he was wrestling larger (and less flexible) wrestlers in the WWE.
I mean, Juventud can bend like that, but HHH? He'll snap.

As for the double powerbomb, I do remember him doing it but I don't think it was ever a finisher. It wasn't. It looked okay when he was doing it to cruiserweights, but looked awkward when he started doing it to guys that had at least 20-30 lbs. on him. |
