10 WWE Wrestlers Who Stole Their Finishers

4. Knee Plus/Busaiku Knee Kick

Poor KENTA just can't catch a break, can he? It seems that as punishment for being one of the most original and innovative wrestlers of the 2000s that his moves had to be stolen from him. Although Daniel Bryan, unlike CM Punk, has more of a right to knick one of his moves since Bryan had wrestled and traveled with KENTA before they made it to the WWE. Bryan and KENTA competed against each other in Ring of Honor and Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan, regularly having fabulous and hard-hitting matches. Bryan debuted his (as then unnamed) Knee Plus in his WWE World Championship match with John Cena at SummerSlam 2013. KENTA has had to change his moveset considerably since arriving in NXT but the Japanese grappler is so talented and original that it hasn't been a problem for him thus far. Saying that, it's probably only a matter of time before WWE roster members start stealing his new moves too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM3Y96tltvU
