15 Greatest TNA Finishing Moves Ever
14. Kurt Angle - The Ankle Lock
The Ankle Lock is probably the one move on this list that your grandmother or nephew could easily apply. But you can be certain that they can't make it look anywhere near as good as Kurt Angle can!
Whenever you see the move applied on his opponents, a bunch of thoughts race through your mind: Are they going to tap? Are they not going to tap? Will they reach the ropes? Will Angle break their freaking ankle?
It's Angle's facial expressions, along with his intensity that really gets the move over. He didn’t invent the ankle lock, and he didn’t start using it in TNA, but he did use it to great success in the promotion. He's so good at delivering the hold that you can't help but feel the pain of the person locked in it.
