WWE: 10 Worst Finishing Moves

9. Rey Mysterio - Drop The Dime

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0gBZM6iSgc From one top rope move to another (maybe ONLY other when you discount Punks awful Elbow Drop), this fails purely for the fact that Rey Mysterio weighs as much as my mums pet dog and simply can€™t see how a big hulk of a man could possibly be kept down by such a low impact fall. When you look at guys who used top rope splashes in the past you think of guys like Val Venis, D-Lo Brown, Eddie Guerrero and RVD who not only had some weight behind them, but genuinely jumped high and far to make the move look like it would genuinely knock all the wind out of you. Rey Rey€™s fall off the top rope doesn€™t compare. I understand that Rey cannot perform his old Lucha moves nowadays due to his back problems and in his prime he had an awesome finishing move in his springboard frankensteiner pin combo (West Coast Pop for short) but it€™s all a bit sad today. Surely the 619 Kick to the head to set up The Dime would more realistically cause some pain for a pin.
