Is Jake the Snake still alive? That guy is such a sad, sad old man.

I mean literally sad. His life is depressing.

Dude, DDP is the loving patron saint of washed-up wrestlers. He rehabilitated Jake Roberts to the point where he could DDT Dean Ambrose and throw "Damien" on him.

Yo ho?

Randy Orton is better at the diamond cutter than DDP ever was, there I said it. I don't even particularly like Randy Orton but drat he sure is great at doing the diamond cutter

But the actual best finisher ever was Jake the Snake's DDT.

While possibly true at some point, the DDT is too exposed these to be taken seriously as a finisher.

Any finisher move ever performed on Shawn Michaels

for some reason whenever he got hit he would do this weird thing where he would bounce all over the place like he lost control of his body.

Found one:

DDP coming out of WCW a healthy, self-actualized person who can still capitalize on his image was the best finisher ever.

I think we can all agree that rock bottom was the dumbest finisher, but if it was followed by the people's elbow, the whole routine was sick

peoples elbow hurt so much more than all other elbows because of the theatrics involved so I have to agree, especially the part where he bounces off the ropes twice and then comes to a complete stop before performing the elbow

no, people's elbow was dumb. a "finisher" that relies on your opponent lying immobile in the middle of the ring for 5 seconds? may was well pin him.

at least with the stunner you had the element of surprise

The stunner was great in its simplicity and solid execution. What a move.

Ok, but I want any witnesses to remember this is being done on enemy territory. Provide kool-aid or coke, or you will be forever remembered as a bad host.
