16 Classic WWE Finishers That Can't Win A Match In 2015
9. Elbow Drop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTEdJAzAjjU Used To Deadly Effect By: Dusty Rhodes, André the Giant, Giant Haystacks, Buddy Landell Before Randy Savage made the maneuver truly iconic by first launching himself up into the lights, the elbow drop was the favored finishing move of the really big fat guy. They'd leap (sort of) and crash down on you, armpit first, and you'd be rendered helpless by a combination of sheer mass and giant guy armpit stank. Once the Macho Man started doing it off the top, however, he kind of ruined the ground-level elbow for everyone else. Actually, post-Savage, no one even uses the flying elbow as a finisher anymore, so the regular version is basically just a waste of energy. Dolph Ziggler is fond of dropping like 12 elbows, then finishing off with a huge leaping elbow for a long one count, apparently to illustrate exactly how impossible it is to beat a guy with the move in 2015.
