The Swanton Bomb is a cool finisher, a favorite. Micky James' DDT is pretty cool, that jumpping one. I agree that the other titles are normally not done with all that respect the deserve. The best thing that's happened to them lately was CM Punk winning the Intercountinental Title.

Yeah, I prefer fast guys and high flyers, which is why I like Rey Mysterio and one of the reasons I like Jeff Hardy. I just have the utmost respect for Triple H and even if he isn't my "super favourite" I believe that he and the Undertaker are two (possibly the) best wrestlers in the business today.

I used to be a Triple H fan too, but I (like any other internet wrestling fan) eventually found out about HHH's obsession with backstage politics and how he only put him and his friends over with total disregard to the other, more talented wrestlers. And with Stephenie McMahon being his wife (in real-life, it's NOT simply a storyline twist), it's only gotten worse. Out of the 13 Title reigns he has under his belt, 10 of them were because of his semi self-booking. As far has best overall wrestlers, in-ring wise, then you need to check out TNA's Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe, and if possible, ROH's Bryan Danielson.

On the subject of finishing moves, I'm not really sure I have a favourite. I love the 619, but it kind of annoys me how people only ever lean up against the ropes like that when they're in a match with Rey. Jeff Hardy's Swanton Bomb and Whisper in the Wind give me chills (but what can I say, I'm biased :lol:

) The Pedigree is an awesome finisher, and I'm also a fan of the Edge-Style Spear. The RKO is lethal but it's not very showy. I like showy.

Neither is the Spear, or even the Pedigree for that matter. They're both cool, but there's nothing real flashy about them, unless you're counting Edge's hilariously bad facial expressions like this for example:

Edge: "What do you mean my expressions are 'hilariously bad'?!"

Edge: "My Spear can be showy, too!!"

Or, just for laughs..

Edge: "I honestly don't get why everyone else thinks you're fat, Vickie.."

*Teddy simply looks away, Ryder tries agreeing, and Hawkins tries his hardest not to laugh*

:lol:

See what I mean?

Edge's facial expressions are 1/3 of the reason I watch WWE. Have you ever noticed the way that when he is angry, scared or some other emotion, the coloured parts of his eyes seem to disappear? We, in this house, and in my friends house, have a habit of noticing his, what we call them, "crazy eyes".

And true, the pedigree and the spear are not really 'showy' but the way they are executed definitely matches the superstars themselves. And that's what a finisher's all about. So I guess with that logic the RKO counts as well, lol.

Oh yeah, and I meant best overall WWE superstars, lol. I know Kurt Angle who has won gold at the olympics and appeared on both WWE and TNA, but I absolutely hated him from the start. I only watch WWE, not any other wrestling show for two reasons, a) SD! is the only one that appears on free TV and b) WWE has all the drama of a comedy soap opera mingled with sporting violence and mass egos, which for me is definite win.

I did not know that about Triple H...he's just like a real life Edge!...Except his wife is more fitting...Anyway speaking of facial expressions, don't forget Randy Orton's facial exprations, he really only has three, emotionless Randy, rabid Randy, and my favorite 'what did I just do?!' Randy, which he's used a lot recently! Question, has Randy EVER smiled?! I have never seen him smile, even sadistically!

Speaking of smiles, have you seen Vladimir's smile? That freaks me out at every glance of it. The lop-sided shark smile makes me shudder, so far I've seen it twice and yet even when he is smiling, he has that permanent smile. Urgh.

And don't forget Kane's smile! That is just creepy! I also wonder if Kane wheres any makeup or if he actually looks like that, which you must admit, is kinda creepy.

Yeah... Kane has gone from a respectable bad guy to just... bleagh.

He stopped wearing the mask and went bald. But he was still 'fearsome'. But now he's changed his once-awesome music and got continually beaten by Rey Mysterio (even though I think Rey is cool, I would've rathered it seem a bit more challenging/realistic) and now he hardly fights anyone. But I *think* he's in the Money in the Bank Ladder match at WMXXV.

Well Ray has proven in the past to be a 'giant killer' in the past, he didn't suddenly become able to beat huge guys, he's always been able to. It isn't as unrealistic as it seems, a small fast guy can defeat a big strong guy in real life.

Yes, I know. I'm just saying that usually it's super-duper challenging for him ,and when he beat Kane, it was like "so what?"

Well he'se fought Kane like 80 times, he'd probably know his fighting style pretty well by now.

And Rey's also been thrown across the ring by Mike Knox for what seems like an eternity now, as well. :lol:

Both are true :lol:

Yeah but Ray's gemick is 'the underdog', thus fair fights are rare as to fit the gemick, he's supposed to be unable to match strength with his opponent and need to use his speed and determination to win. It not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog.
