10 Best Looking Punches In Wrestling History
6. Ox Baker
There have been some truly great punchers in wrestling history, but few men have ever been able to build their reputation of the strength of their punch quite like Ox Baker.
One of the most physically frightening wrestlers of the golden era, Ox Baker quickly became infamous for his snarling promos and his devastating heart punch finishing move. The heart punch was already one of the most feared and devastating strikes in all of wrestling long before the real-life deaths of two wrestlers were attributed to the finisher, but after that it became a thing of legend. In fact, in 1974 when Baker refused to stop heart punching a wrestler after a match he caused a legitimate riot to occur in the arena.
The punch itself was a powerful straight jab delivered by a walking monstrosity, but the heat that Baker built around it remains unmatched.
