10 Terrible Wrestling Moves That Have NEVER Looked Good

8. The Rose Plant

'The Role Model' unquestionably boasts effortless charisma and an ability to produce in-ring magic given the right story and opponent - but one thing the mighty Bayley has never really possessed is an explosive or eye-catching finisher.

After winning gold on a number of occasions via her rather unimpressive Bayley-to-Belly suplex, the former 'Hugger' decided to change things up a little after her 2019 heel turn.

This was a golden opportunity to really make an impact with a despicable and punishing new weapon of destruction. So, what did Bayley land on for her new finisher? The consistently disappointing Rose Plant.

While an Arm Trap Headlock Driver may look rather epic on paper, Bayley's version of the manoeuvre always just winds up looking like a messy and pretty weak facebuster.

Some four years on from its debut (!), the Damage CTRL star is still trying to get the ugly-looking attack over with a crowd who continue to struggle to find a reason to really react to the limp conclusion in 2024.

This one should have been scrapped long ago, so here's hoping the much-loved figure can finally find a stronger alternative if/when she decides to embrace the cheers again in the coming years.
