10 Amazing Wrestling Moves You'll NEVER See Again

10. The Shaker Heights Spike

The Beverly Brothers were to 1992 what Pretty Deadly are to 2023, only with a mean streak far darker than Elton Prince and Kit Wilson’s roughest stuff.

Gimmicked up to the eyeballs as the spoilt brothers from Shaker Heights, Ohio, Beau and Blake Beverly were once Wayne Bloom and Mike Enos of The Destruction Crew, and enjoyed living up to their name in the AWA before becoming Vince McMahon’s latest sibling double act.

Though some of the violence was lost along the way, the Beverlys had a killshot for the ages, and one that suited the jobber squash format of the era. Some poor mug would get elevated as if they were going up for a Shatter Machine/3D but looser, and the execution was no accident. The lack of obvious trajectory left them prone to driving headfirst into the canvas as if they were taking a Tombstone from an invisible Undertaker.

With its name playing off their current gimmick and execution tied to a fondly remembered past, it was a glorious compromise that was sadly never dusted off and rebadged for another killer unit.
