8. The Rock
tumblrProbably the most famous elbow drop in wrestling because of who executes it, the Peoples Elbow certainly deserves recognition here as the Most Electrifying Move in Sports Entertainment. The move itself is a simple running elbow drop with a bunch of theatrics added on: kicking the arm, pulling off the elbow pad, running the ropes, winding up and dropping the elbow to the chest. While the move itself doesnt appear to be very devastating, the Peoples Elbow brings fans to their feet. It causes people to lose their minds as Rock winds up and delivers the elbow right into the black heart of an opponent, as J.R. would say. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S007vpJ4_Bc Through the years, the Peoples Elbow gained more notoriety with its variations. Probably two of the most famous are the sliding-to-a-stop elbow (video is above) and the tandem elbow with Mankind. The sliding elbow just gave Rock an extra cool factor, as it looked like there was nothing he couldnt do and make it look so smooth.
