10 Better Finishers For Current WWE Superstars
9. Big E
Current Finisher: ‘The Big Ending’ (Stomach Cutter)
Big E is one of the most entertaining wrestlers in the company as the New Day’s pseudo-minister. But despite being a great orator, he has one of the least-impressive finishers out of the entire roster. The Big Ending is a cutter for the stomach. He doesn’t drive his opponent’s stomach into his shoulder (which would make for a better finisher).
All he does is scoop them up and fall backwards as they fall flat. It doesn’t even look like most of their body touches the mat, yet we’re supposed to believe that this move hurts enough for Big E to score a 3-count (or a 5-count, as it were).
Suggested New Finisher: The Dominator

As the move’s name implies, this move just screams ‘power’. By lifting his opponents onto his shoulder and then driving them down to the mat face and chest-first, Big E would come off as a much more dangerous athlete.
Furthermore, instead of falling down with his opponent when performing the Big Ending, and by consequence looking weaker, with the Dominator, Big E would stand tall as his opponent would lie in a crumpled heap at his feet. This would give the impression that Big E requires little effort to defeat his opponents, which is exactly what the powerhouse of a group is supposed to do in the first place.
