Watched some classic AWA wrestling on ESPN Classic tonight and it got me thinking - What was my favorite WWE/WWF/WCW/AWA wrestler's finishing move of all-time?
Top 3:
1. Jake "The Snake" Robert's DDT
2. Stone Cold Stunner
3. HBK's Sweet Chin Music
Side Note - When I was younger, my brothers and I used to do some of these moves and the "Boston Crab" frickin hurts!
Thoughts?

NDSU's own Bob Backlund and the crossface chickenwing.
The Rock - The People's Elbow/The Corporate Elbow

I am a big fan of the Diamond Cutter/RKO used by Diamond Dallas Page and Randy Orton respectively.
I really like CM kid's GTS (Go To Sleep)
Can't go wrong with a good ole powerbomb.
I think I'd probably say my favorite is Triple H's Pedigree. That could also be because he's one of my all time favorites too.
Love the idea for the thread!!

I also have to go with the pedigree by Triple H, but I liked the people's elbow by the Rock also. How about your favorite finishing move by one of the Divas? Oh wait, their not on because of their skills

The Stone Cold Stunner is by far my favorite. The Undertaker's tombstone is another good one.

Gotta go old school...The Baron had "The Claw" and I can't remember who did it first back in the '70-80s, but somebody had "The Sleeper". Andre the Giant had a great finishing move as well.
