8 Wrestling Finishers Made Out Of Spite

Okay, okay, the Kiss My Ass Club was not a finishing move, per se, but it's something that certainly had a level of spite involved in it at times - particularly in the instance of Jim Ross' induction to this infamous club.

Of course, good ol' JR was regularly poked fun at and embarrassed by Vince McMahon during Jim's stints with WWE, with such moments usually being in majorly poor taste. So, when Raw happened to stop by Ross' home state of Oklahoma, he feared McMahon had something in mind for the legendary commentator on that night.

That something would see JR become the third person to join McMahon's Kiss My Ass Club, as The Undertaker turned heel and forced Ross to suck on VKM's backside.

As Ross has since detailed on his Grillin' JR podcast, he obviously hated the notion of the Kiss My Ass Club, hated the notion of joining that group, and likewise hated the notion of doing so in front of his family and friends.

JR explained how he knew Vince would want to do something to spite him in front of a crowd that would be so pro-Ross, and thus the decision was made for McMahon to drop his pants and get the WWE Hall of Famer to pucker up.
