10 Deadliest Haymakers In WWE History
You really don't want to get struck by these guys...
Wrestling is undoubtedly a physical sport. At the end of the day, nobody walks between those ropes and expects to walk out in the same condition. You can rest assured that every wrestler is prepared for an onslaught of punches, kicks and just about everything in between, and thus, they're ready to hit back with an assault of their own.
It is every superstar's goal to land that one big haymaker — a strike so brutal and effective that it incapacitates their opponent. While not necessarily their finishing move, this blow can alter the course of the match, shifting the momentum back in that superstar's favour.
Over the years, we have seen countless WWE superstars utilise their fists to regain the advantage — among them are the most violent and vicious in WWE history. These men gained that reputation through their hard-hitting strikes and killer closed fists.
Let's take a look back at some of the most formidable strikes that the company had to offer, and find out if the superstars responsible for them are still unleashing their secret weapons on opponents today.
10. The Great Khali's Chop
The Great Khali may not have been the most technically-gifted athlete in WWE history but he sure knew how to clobber opponents with his signature chop. Though it didn't always hit the spot, it proved to be a convincingly powerful weapon when successfully utilised. After all, it's hard to deny how imposing Khali looked when he made his debut on SmackDown in 2006 and took out The Undertaker with his nothing more than his bare hands.
Throughout the course of his career, the Punjabi Nightmare used that chop to successfully level the likes of 'Taker, Batista, Triple H, Kane, Rey Mysterio and John Cena. It may not have been pretty, but when executed properly, it was certainly effective.
