The first entry on this list has already established that Thanos knows a thing or two about wrestling moves. So, it's no surprise to see him back at it again, burying younger heroes like Triple H during a World Heavyweight Title reign.

During the fight on Titan - you know, the one where Thanos was taken down by a baseball slide - the purple villain found himself getting overwhelmed by Spider-Man's kicks. But, in what can only be described as an epic reversal, he grabbed the Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man by the throat, and slammed him into the ground.

No wrestling fan could watch this moment without thinking, "damn, Thanos just hit a chokeslam". But he went further than Kane ever could by firing Peter Parker off into the air afterwards.

It just goes to show that big men (or mad titans) deliver the best chokeslams - sorry, Hurricane.
