30 Great WWE Superstars And Their Strange Rookie Finishers

28. Johnny Mundo

Johnny Mundo has had as many finishers as he's had names. For years now he's put opponents away with a corkscrew split-legged moonsault known as the End of the World, FKA Starship Pain. He's also used a sliding knee strike, a C-4 suplex, a standing shooting star press, and a superkick known as the Nitro Blast. Waaaaay back in the early MNM days, the biggest weapon in young Johnny Nitro€™s arsenal was the breakdance leg drop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxXozkCMpvA You know the weird trope that WWE does where it hires Divas who are very athletic in a general sense, and instead of teaching them to really wrestle, they just let them turn cartwheels and splits into offensive moves between chinlocks? That was Johnny Nitro. He was doing a headstand because it was in his skill-set and then dropping a weak, badly-aimed leg. Brother was one step away from throwing Eve Torres booty-popping moonsaults.
