10 Best Chokeslams In Wrestling History

3. Big Show

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbYMCmbB5-4 For someone who stands at 7 feet tall and weighs 500lbs., there€™s no move more appropriate for him than the Chokeslam. Big Show has made a career out of using his height to his advantage, elevating his opponents with a devastating Chokeslam that very few wrestlers could top. What also made Big Show€™s Chokeslam more powerful-looking than those used by others was that Show tended to add two elements to his version of the move. First, when lifting them, he€™d often hold them in the air, one hand around their neck and the other under on their waist before dropping them. This was one of the best ways for Big Show to demonstrate his amazing strength. Second, instead of bending over and releasing his opponents once they had reached their highest elevation, Big Show tended to hold onto his opponents, going down to his knees while still holding his opponents as they hit the canvas. This gave off the impression that Big Show was putting on all of his weight and strength behind his Chokeslam, making the move look even more devastating upon execution. There€™s a reason that Big Show has used the Chokeslam for the majority of his career; it has worked for him more than any other move. While he has tried using others, like the KO Punch and the Cobra Clutch, Big Show always looks most powerful when he€™s Chokeslamming people.
