10 Current WWE Wrestlers Who Need New Finishing Moves

4. Finn Balor

Seth Rollins' opponent at SummerSlam also needs a new finishing move, I think.

'Demon King' Finn Balor has been using the Coup de Grace since arriving in the WWE system, the double stomp off the top, and the impact of the move seems to have lessened over the years. I guess once you've seen Sonjay Dutt combine this with a moonsault it is hard to be so impressed with the standard version.

Balor already has moves in his arsenal that would suit him better as a finish. His Bloody Sunday lifted DDT has been renamed '1916', and already looks far more devastating than a tummy stomp from the top. The inverted version is just as impressive and can always be used as a special occasion alternate.

It may just be me, but the diving double foot stomp doesn't seem fitting as a finishing move for a potential champion of the entire universe.
