10 WWE Superstars With Better Signatures Than Finishers

4. Triple H

Superior Signature: Spinebuster

Finisher: Pedigree

The Pedigree is sort of overrated. It's a callback to Triple H's Connecticut blue blood, Hunter Hearst Helmsley character, and it should have disappeared when he made the transition to DX.  But instead, it stuck around, and it's totally unconvincing as a King of King's Finisher — it looks like the Pedigree would hurt Triple H's balls more than his opponent's face.

The Spinebuster, however — especially the way Triple H delivers it — befits the ass-kicking mentality that he wants to portray.
