10 Times Wrestlers Totally WASTED Awesome Moves

5. House Call - Swerve Strickland

When it comes to the names currently present on the All Elite roster, they don't come much nastier or more vicious than Swerve Strickland.

And though both his trusty JML driver and Swerve Stomp both definitely reflect just how callous the Mogul Embassy star can be, arguably his most despicable weapon doesn't get the respect and attention it certainly deserves.

Used more to set up either of those aforementioned finishers nowadays than it is to dramatically kill any hopes of getting the better of Swerve, the graceful but cruel House Call running kick to the head is arguably the industry's most violent looking kick at this precise moment in time.

But even with that being the case, the awesome move is still rarely enough to keep just about anyone down for the count, with the likes of a young Nick Wayne even being able to survive the sole of Swerve's boot.

Again, it's not like Strickland is lacking in the impactful finisher department. But re-establishing the often wasted House Call as something to truly be feared would add another chilling layer to Swerve's increasingly unstoppable offence in-between the ropes.
