10 Most Insane Wrestling Spots Of The Week (June 18)
Asuka got crossbodied through a table! Kenny Omega his a beautiful Moonsault!
The 2017 edition of WWE Money In The Bank, a show that promises huge dives and spills thanks to the feature ladder matches, is just a few short hours away. Until then, here is a figurative high spot primer - a countdown of the best moves from many of the most popular wrestling promotions today.
In NXT, Nikki Cross tried her best to defy the claims that nobody is ready for Asuka. After this match was thrown out by the ref, this Sanity member forced the champ through a table the hard way. In NJPW, Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada delivered once again in a much-heralded match. A couple of the bigger standout moments from that contest made the cut, including a must-see Okada elbow through a table.
A couple of match-endings also are featured, including Sonjay Dutt's huge overseas victory of a title that's eluded him for years. He won his match with a fairly simple move made more important considering the history. Also, WCPW crowned their first Hardcore Champion at Built to Destroy. The finish involved an ironing board wrapped in barbwire, which is something you do not want to miss!
First up this week is a humorous variation of a Rocky Romero signature move...
10. Forever Clotheslines Almost Backfires
Roppongi Vice needed a third man to compete against The Young Bucks and Hangman Page on this week's episode of Ring of Honor. Trent was more than happy to announce his best friend, Chuck Taylor, in that role. Rocky was a little jealous by the new addition and almost took out both teammates on this spot.
Romero already connected with a string of Forever Clotheslines before the start of this highlight. Trent and Chuck were able to duck the friendly fire, then redirect him back toward The Bucks to finish out this sequence.
