10 Most Protected WWE Moves Ever
6. Tombstone
It has become somewhat predictable over the last few years, but it is easy to forget that for years and years the Undertaker's Tombstone Piledriver was one of the most protected moves in the entire business. It was kicked out of at WrestleMania between XXIV and 31, but nobody kicked out of it in the first eight years of the Deadman's career. Kane was the first to do so, but it would be another ten years before anyone else managed it.
The piledriver itself has been banned in World Wrestling Entertainment, so in many ways protection of the Tombstone is vital for the move and the character performing it. If a move is so dangerous that it is banned (and acknowledged as such), it must be protected in-canon. The Tombstone Piledriver has been an instant critical for the majority of 'Taker's career.
Sure, we can assume that whomever faces Undertaker at WrestleMania 33 will manage to kick out of at least one Tombstone Piledriver, but in terms of longevity it is difficult to argue with how well the move was protected.
