WWE: 5 Most Dangerous Current Finishers

2. Tombstone Piledriver

The Piledriver is no longer used in the WWE. Any highlight reel you pull up on YouTube will show the Owen Hart-Stone Cold Piledriver botch which wound up breaking Stone Cold€™s neck. The move is simply too dangerous and too costly, yet the Undertaker is still allowed to use his Tombstone Piledriver. The potential danger is clear; iff Taker holds his opponent€™s head below his knees, their neck WILL be injured. If his grip slips as he falls to his knees, his opponent€™s neck WILL be injured. It€™s happened countless times when the Piledriver was still used. Being dropped straight on your head is a potentially life threatening injury, and considering that any type of Piledriver provides little protection for the person subjected to it, the Piledriver is easily one of the most dangerous moves of all time. Strangely enough I was thinking of rating the Tombstone #5 at first. Why? Simple, The Undertaker has used it for so long, so effectively, and so safely that the odds of him botching it are slim to none. Yet, the potential danger of the move still places the Tombstone Piledriver high on this list.
