10 Most Paused Wrestling Moments Of 2015

6. Kalisto€™s TLC Hang Time

Speaking of memorable stunts, Kalisto arguably stole the show at TLC. Teaming with Sin Cara (as The Lucha Dragons) against The Usos and The New Day, he was challenging for the WWE Tag-Team Titles. The Ladder Match opened up the main pay-per-view portion of the show, and was well worth a watch. So good was the opener that many matches had a hard time following it on the card. One reason for this was the spectacular move executed by both Kalisto and Jey Uso. Looking for a way to ensure their bout remained etched in the memories of everyone watching, the pair performed a pretty darn dangerous looking move. Known as the 'Salida Del Sol', the sitout-style move is flashy at the best of times. However, on this occasion, both were on top of a ladder. Another ladder was propped between the ring ropes and the one they were perched atop. Flying off one ladder, Kalisto and Uso crashed through the other. The resultant pop from the crowd was incredible, and the move has likely been replayed many times since. Perhaps the most paused aspect of this one came when both men were in full flight, the hang time Kalisto managed was stunning.
