F5 was awesome when I was younger.
I thought the Canadian Destroyer was the most innovative thing I ever saw, and then everyone started doing it. Became watered down faster thann the DDT.

Awesome bomb to the outside blew my mind first time I saw it. I kept thinking that Mike didn't give a shit if he injured or killed anyone because it looked so brutal

RVS's 5 Star Frog Splash was always cool. Especially in ECW where the rings were extra loud and bouncy so it sounded like an earthquake when he did it.

The Shamrock Ankle Lock, a lot of submission holds looked overly complex and I was a dumb kid who couldn't quite figure out why they'd even hurt, but this dude was just out here twisting your foot off your leg, it made me fucking wince every time I saw it. Also the fact Shamrock was screaming like a methhead helped the sell tremendously.

I was there for almost all of them, and as much as I love/hate him, the Pedigree popped me when I first saw it.
Honorable mentions:
tombstone piledriver,
stone cold stunner,
and the legendary steiner screwdriver (pic).

Pedigree was the most copied move in my high school and the leading cause of accidental concussions and broken noses. You can't buy heat like that.

Wrestling needs more people with his innovative attitude. It's insane how many of these guys just copy everything else with no twist or tweak.

Cross face crippler. Told a kid I was going to put him in it in 7th grade and he told his mom that night after school which resulted in her alerting the middle school principal and me being suspended for 7 days for threatening to cripple someone. the dumb bitch female principal didn't understand that was just the name of the move. the kid later went on to become a pedophile and registered sex offender and the principal was involved in a scandal later in life when she was found to be misappropriating funds in her public office

so the obvious way to work this is to land at an angle where your shoulder hits first but even then you're putting all your weight on your shoulder blade. seems like a horrible move to take all around

A friend of mine did that to his younger brother, he was 7 and his brother was 3. Ended up smashing his face open and got grounded for a week and not being allowed to watch wrestling for a year lol.

When I was real little, my sister and I were watching Macho Man versus someone. I got up, did the "Oooo, yeah!" and bodyslammed her on the couch. No more watching wrestling after that until the Attitude Era.
