10 Most Heavily Protected Wrestling Finishers Ever
6. Red/Black Arrow (Neville/PAC)
PAC is a complete professional wrestler with no immediately noticeable holes in his game, with one of his most impressive attributes being his ability to tailor and adjust his wrestling style to his character and alignment.
When the former Neville is playing a babyface, he can be as flashy as they come, amplifying his matches with cloudbursts of spectacular, fast-moving offense to get the fans on their feet and popping daft. When he's a 'Bastard,' however, he'll work like his nickname. Rather than shooting for cheers and acclaim, he'll slow everything right down and deny the audience instant gratification. Constantly taking to the skies as a villain doesn't make sense because the fans are going to cheer for it. In recognising this, PAC succeeds where many of his peers fail.
This is likely why PAC brought the Brutaliser submission into play in AEW - to give him a way of finishing matches without always relying on the Black Arrow, which is one of wrestling's most spectacular moves.
As Neville, the Red Arrow was never kicked out in WWE. It technically has been in AEW, as a botched Bryce Remsburg count saw him pull out before three as PAC pinned Trent on a November 2019 episode of Dynamite. Regardless, this was unintentional. The level of protection remains intact.
