10 Classic WWE Finishers Applied In Real Life

5. The 619

The main thing to remember when thinking about Rey Mysterio's 619 is that it is incredibly contingent on environment. Depending on where you are, this move may be either unavailable or terribly inadvisable. The few physical settings that do come mind all come with their own unique complications. -If attempted in a strip club with one pole idiotically close to the bar, there is a risk of creating a circular shower of broken glass and escalating a simple dust-up into a Lucio Fulci style bloodbath. -If attempted on a cruise ship deck with ideally spaced railings, you are suddenly gambling with live burial at sea for the sake of ooh's and aah's. Your call. -Done on a lamppost next to an illegally low clothesline€ a trifle too Gene Kelly, no? It could realistically do some damage, but between the contextual odds, degree of difficulty and the rather modest payoff of making a broken nose look kewl, a real fight is not the best time to start harnessing the awesome power of the merry-go-round.
