#2 Coast to Coast to Cesaro Swing

Shane McMahon's coast to coast is a dangerous finishing manoeuvre. However, the 48-year-old has been performing the move on a regular basis. Mostly, it gets countered. At Survivor Series 2016, Roman Reigns countered the coast to coast with an awkward spear, causing huge damage to McMahon.

One of the more unique counters to the move was born at the 2019 edition of Royal Rumble. After stacking both Sheamus and Cesaro in a precarious position, Shane began ascending the top rope, positioning himself to do the move. However, mid-flight, Cesaro caught McMahon by his legs and performed the Cesaro Swing - all in one smooth fluid motion.

The crowd who were dead for the whole match erupted once Cesaro began swinging Shane for a good while. Even though The Miz and Shane won the match, this one was definitely the spot of the match.
