Ranking What Was Really The Best Wrestling Finisher Every Year 1990-2020

11. 2010 - Double Rotation Moonsault

Best Finishers
Dragon Gate

Never forget that WWE signed a man so supernaturally gifted that he was once capable of executing a double motherf*cking rotation motherf*cking moonsault, and jobbed him out in unannounced matches against Riddick Moss and Brendan Vink in the same calendar year.

A double motherf*cking rotation motherf*cking moonsault, and they put him on Main Event.

It is promotional malpractice. Generating absolutely preposterous velocity, Ricochet essentially performed a 10 metre pool dive from the relatively acute distance between the top rope and the canvas. It was a derangement of the senses in pro wrestling form. It was arresting. It was something a video game designer never thought to code because it was so ridiculous.

Ricochet created a brand new physics engine for professional wrestling, and WWE had Vink go over him.
