You can answer that question yourself by naming any other finisher in pro wrestling.. i mean entertainment. lol

Not one is easier to execute or has less risk associated with it than an armbar.

Name one ...... all finishers are easy.

That new Sin Cara finisher looks pretty cool.

I like Sin Cara ...... but that move was dumb and he could only do it with another guy who can do a controlled flip.

He could not do that move with 90% of the roster.

You didn't consider what i said. I said no move is easier AND has less risk associated with it than a simple armbar.

You lay down, you grab the other guys arm and pull it between your legs.

The Tombstone and Pedigree have injured people's necks before, btw.

Also, not sure what promotion you're watching, but there has never been a finishing move of a fireman's carry or a sleeper hold from any wrestler that i've ever seen. We're talking about people's finishers here.

Again, not one is easier to perform and takes less of a risk.

You must have never seen John Cena or Rowdy Roddy Piper.

A fireman's carry doesn't have any type of slam associated with it. Just because he uses a fireman's carry to set up the move, doesn't mean that IS the move itself.

Alot of finishers have used that as a set up, btw.

So it becomes a difficult move when he drops them?

Wow.

What about Rowdy and his sleeper hold? He was probably before your time in the 80's.

You're asking me if a slam.. where you throw someone off your back upside down, to being right side up when they land in the ring.. is more difficult than laying down, grabbing someone's arm and pulling?

Yes.. for pete's sake. There's also more risk involved with that as well, depending on how they land.

Look at the still shot on the video right there before you play it.

Tell me what ADR is doing there?

He appears to be laying on the ground, pulling on the man's arm.. no?

That wasn't his finisher it's just a move he does every now and then

This is his actual finisher

You mean how he rolls into it sometimes? Yea, as i said before, they tried to make the move more dramatic, but its a pretty lame attempt. The actual submission move is an armbar. Cut and dry.

He rolls into it sometimes, other times he does not.. either time, its still an armbar for a finisher.

Lame..

While we're talking about lame-o finishing/setup moves,


What in the blue hell is up with the five-knuckle shuffle?

And why does Cena miss the opponent's head by 3 ft. each time?

Cena is a pretty lame character altogether.. the only thing i really like about the guy is his intensity.

Ummmm rather it's simple or not you realise they actually tap people out in MMA with arm bars, right? So rather it's 'simple' or not doesn't mean it isn't an effective move.

And ask all the guys who get trapped in arm bars and have to tap if it's a simple stretch move that makes their shoulder feel better.

Same as the peoples elbow.

Always hated both.

Can't believe you hate the most electrifying move in all of sports entertainment. ;)

At least The Rock makes some contact.
