10 Wrestling Moves That Worked For One Wrestler (But Not Another)

Another move that is seemingly passed to a new performer by the year hasn't always been a home run for the passionate soul trying to get over the pain tying someone's legs up can truly inflict.

While it's hard to look past The Nature Boy Ric Flair's iteration of the Figure-Four Leg Lock as the benchmark, the likes of Shawn Michaels, Triple H, and Ric's daughter Charlotte Flair have all been able to take things up a few notches when calling back to the former World Heavyweight Champion.

However, one attempt to mark a star out as someone to watch via the iconic submission sits way beneath those aforementioned adaptations.

After being passed the figure-four torch by Naytch himself, The Miz would go on to use the often imitated submission as his match-ender. Yet, rather than cinching in the leg lock with a snug technique that genuinely left audiences wondering how an opponent was going to survive, Miz simply crossed his legs in a limp fashion and began gurning like a mad man.

Though it's since gone on to become a less-used signature of the star's, it's still something The Awesome One unfortunately relies on when taking things to the mat.
