10 Most Over-The-Top Finishing Moves In WWE History
5. The 619
Another cruiserweight and one of WWE's most popular wrestlers of the past 15 years, it's lucha legend Rey Mysterio! His in-ring style made him famous with constant head scissors, handsprings, backflips and of course his patented finishing move. If you've only ever seen Mysterio wrestle just once in a WWE ring, you'll know just how much fans love the 619. What it actually is: Shins to the face. What it looks like: Drop toe-holding his opponent onto the ropes so they're hanging around like sweaty laundry, Rey utilises the unlimited power of the ropes by bouncing off the opposite side of the ring and swinging in between the top and middle ropes like a stacked ratchet before throwing his legs into the face of his prone victim. This, obviously, sends the opposing guy flying across the squared circle either into a pinning position or for a West Coast Pop, which is just as flamboyant as it sounds, as Rey leaps off the top rope like a flying squirrel for a hurricanrana into a pin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHlytdzDto0
