10 Most Impractical Wrestling Moves

6. The Van Daminator

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaO53HP_Baw Rob Van Dam is one of the most popular Superstars to ever come out of ECW. His wrestling style was mainly a combination of martial arts, especially kicks. That€™s a perfectly acceptable fighting style; many wrestlers have included martial arts in their wrestling styles, including Tajiri, Steve Blackman, and CM Punk. So what maneuver puts RVD on this list? The Van Daminator. Arguably the best example of suspension of disbelief, the Van Daminator basically goes like this: Rob Van Dam picks up a chair, throw it to his opponent, who then holds it up to their head while RVD spin kicks the chair into their head. In other words, the selling point of this move was for Van Dam€™s opponent to hold the chair in position for him to kick it. To make this move useless, all someone would have to do would be to drop the chair; that€™s it. While some moves require some degree of technique to escape from or avoid (especially submission holds like the Figure-4 Leg Lock that can be reversed, supposedly putting the pressure on the user instead), the Van Daminator simply requires the desired victim drop the chair that€™s thrown to them. Or, they could simply choose throw it aside. Either way, Rob Van Dam€™s offense has indeed been interesting, but the Van Daminator is nonetheless impractical.
