10 Most Devastating Finishers In WWE Today

According to Orton himself, the move has been banned for several years now, going the way of the Curb Stomp and, at one time, the DDT. This is down to WWE’s status as a publicly traded company, one that wouldn’t want to condone the act of kicking a defenceless human being square across the skull, in order to put them on the shelf.
