Yeah exactly. Whoever said it doesn't hurt doesn't know the move well. Ever see those strong man contests where the guy is bending a steel poll behind his neck and over his shoulders? Now imagine that guy doing it with your neck and one of your legs.

Ummm, watch Lex Luger do it and tell me it looks painful.

NO.

It's dumb because as executed it looks stupid, not painful.

Your insane. I've had a few put on me and it feels like your neck is going to snap.

For future reference, no one should be calling a move dumb unless they've experienced it.

You'll see the Canadian Destroyer at about the 3and half minute mark I think.

I can't make sense of that move. Who's meant to be getting "Hurt"? Red trunks or the other guy? They both seem to be in pain.

So true!
The Rorture Rack hurts like hell, damnit!

The other guy.

Hmmm that's going to make this thread very difficult to continue unless we all start acting like the people in that video posted earlier with our friends.

Come on Astro I've been working on my Canadian Destroyer with my dog. But I need to try it with a human just so I can say its unrealistic.

x move sucks.

EDIT:

Never mind, I just broke my neck. That move is awesome!

 

[shantyman]

You're not listening.

When I have watched Lex Luger do it (which is the only way I have seen it), it looks lame as if he is simply shaking someone on his shoulders. If applied "properly" I'm sure it is quite painful.

I always hated HBK's Sweet Chin Music.

I dunno when he does it right....it looks badass



in this case.....here he is killing bret with it.... :lol

You either have not seen, or are one of those 2 people in the video on page 1.

Honestly, I didn't know. It just seemed like wrestling logic -- like if you throw a guy against the ropes, he'll bounce off and return in the opposite direction.

I've reversed a couple figure fours and had it reversed on me...it really does hurt. Not "OMG MY LEG'S GONNA FALL OFF!!" hurt, but it is very uncomfortable. All the pressure gets reverted back onto the leg.

I just hate how no one's submitted to the figure four since Flair was in WCW. It's like the modern day sleeper hold, a move that's gone from being one of the most devestating legit finishers ever to a fucking rest hold.

As for Macho's elbow drop, that's one of the stiffest moves in wrestling. Many wrestlers complained that Macho took nothing off when he did that elbow. In terms of visuals though, I don't think anyone had a better looking elbow.

Foulest move by far is Rikishi's ass plant to the face...might as well go down on Mae Young if you're gonna take that move. But with all the dumb shit moves that exist (and there are a ton), none touches the worm. Hearing fans cheer for that piece of shit manuever legitimately ticked me off.

Last night, at the TNA ppv, the NASCAR commentator Jeff Hammond did something called a "pit stop elbow". Apparently, it involves him pretending to rev up, back up a few steps, and then drop an elbow. While I haven't seen it yet, if it's half as ridiculous as it sounds, it will make the Worm look like a fucking Burning Hammer.

:lol :lol :lol

STFU! The superkick rocks, man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

The problem isn't the kick...it's the ridiculous stamping he does beforehand.

"HEY MR OPPONENT, I'M GONNA DO MY SWEET CHIN MUSIC NOW!! I HOPE I GAVE YOU ENOUGH WARNING!!"

It's really quite silly...but again, at least the actual move is effective.

The fucking X-Factor from X-pac, talk about dick fest.

He didn't even hit the person!! He just spun around.

STFU .... best pic i could find

Ummmm...it's not really a wrestling move....it's just like a taunt.
