10 Most Devastating Finishers In WWE Today
10. WMD/KO Punch - Big Show
The WMD could arguably take home the award for ‘Dumbest Move’ on this list, but it’s also one of the most protected. For what is essentially a lackadaisical punch to the side of the face, the WMD has seen the end of plenty of big name superstars, including Mark Henry, CM Punk, John Cena, and Triple H.
Sheamus once kicked out of the WMD at Hell In a Cell 2012, in a match that also saw Big Show kick out of Sheamus’s previously protected Brogue Kick. While the Brogue Kick was reduced to nothing more than a glorified big boot during the Fella’s title feud with Roman Reigns in 2015, the WMD is still protected to this day.
Why do we rarely see it anymore? Because Big Show doesn’t win anymore. Love it or hate it, that’s the sign of a finishing move that finishes matches.
