10 Wrestling Moves WWE Banned For Being Too Dangerous

2. Kawada Driver

An anomaly on this list and in pro wrestling in general, the Kawada Driver or the ganso bomb as it is sometimes known, occured when its creator Toshiaki Kawada attempted a powerbomb during a match with Mitsuharu Misawa. Misawa then tried to counter into a standard hurracanrana without letting Kawada know first, causing Kawada to tighen his grip and merely stagger, leaving Misawa hanging. What happened next was almost sickening to watch: Kawada simply took a step or two forwards and dropped Misawa on his head. Although it happened completely by accident, it received a crazy reaction from the Japanese fans and Kawada owned it, turning it into his break-glass-in-case-of-emergency type move. This insane unprotected variation of the Tombstone has only been performed a handful of times since, on wrestlers just crazy enough to accept the consequences.
