8 Wrestlers Who Did Their Finisher In Recent Movies

8. Keith Lee - The Main Event

With the sheer amount of stock WWE (or more specifically Triple H down in NXT) put into their Limitless sensation over the course of his mostly meteoric rise to superstardom on their product, it was fairly safe to assume that Vince McMahon had some rather big plans for former North American and NXT Champion Keith Lee.

And while that ultimately turned out not to be the case, his appearance as one of the leading faces in Netflix's tag team with WWE for their children's feature The Main Event acted as another notable notch for the charismatic superstar.

It was during this cinematic bow, taking to the NXT ring over the course of the flick as Smooth Operator, where Lee was able to nail his famed Bang, Bang Catastrophe in one of the film's many fun montages. Sure, The Main Event may be nothing more than a light and harmless slice of family fun, telling the tale of a young boy who takes on pro wrestling powers upon slipping on a luchador mask. But it still gave us a Limitless Lee doing what he does best on the biggest streaming service on the planet.
