10 Awful Moves Talented Wrestlers Need To Stop Using
4. Charlotte Flair - Figure 8 Leg Lock
The Figure Four Leg Lock can be a difficult move to make your own. The Miz failed miserably, Cody has done an okay job but perhaps the most prolific user of the move in modern wrestling is Charlotte Flair. Flair distinguished herself from her father by making her finisher the Figure Eight Leg Lock, basically a Figure Four but with a bridge action.
This is an incredibly contrived move to begin with. The act of bridging makes the move look more like it is hurting The Queen than it is her opponents and visually it doesn't look like the most brutal move. But what makes this move so frustrating is the high regard in which it is held. The Figure Eight is referred to as one of the most deadly finishers in the women's division.
Flair has some terrific moves at her disposal, most notably the Natural Selection. Charlotte should begin to transition away from the move and transition to some more brutal moves that match her heel persona.
