10 Terrible Wrestlers Who Perfected AWESOME Moves

4. Power & Glory's Power Plex

Paul Roma's name pretty much a punchline in old Four Horsemen jokes as the former Young Stallion was unbelievably placed alongside Ric Flair, Ole Anderson, and Arn Anderson, while Hercules was another overexposed bodybuilder type without other noticeable traits to stand out in an era packed with beefcakes. They were stronger together than apart and Power and Pain weren't always a terrible tandem, though their finisher was comfortably the best thing about them, hence their inclusion here.

The Power Plex ruled. It was a relatively straightforward Suplerplex/Big Splash combination made awesome by the impeccable timing and precision, as hapless victims were blasted by the splash within a second of their back hitting the canvas. Lovely, devastating stuff that would later aped by a much more successful team in The Usos years later.
