10 Terrible Wrestling Moves That Have NEVER Looked Good

1. The A-Town Down

Perhaps determined to take the crown of worst finisher on WWE television from 'The Awesome One', Austin Theory has spent the last few years dragging many a popular babyface right down to A-Town.

Everyone from the legendary Rey Mysterio, to current World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, to the selling machine that is Dolph Ziggler have all tried and failed to make the latest 'Chosen One's match-ender feel like a dangerous act.

There's just no getting around the fact that the former United States Champion's Fireman's Carry Facebreaker simultaneously doesn't look all that agonising and feels needlessly convoluted.

By foolishly allowing his opponents the chance to break their fall with their knees as he spins them out for the facebreaker portion of the move, the impact is evidently lessened and makes the person taking it look rather weak after ultimately staying down for the three-count post-A-Town Down.

CM Punk's GTS or Brock Lesnar's F5 are both superior alternatives to this terrible thing caught somewhere in-between both of those iconic finishers.

So, a return to pulverising opponents with his creative and much more impactful Ataxia (Lifting Reverse STO) would definitely be preferred over a few more years of A-Town clowning about.
