The WWE's Attitude Era is gone. Along with this, gone are the times when the people used to watch the WWE shows, only to see the ruthless beatings.
Sportskeeda is the one-stop destination for latest WWE rumors and wrestling news.
The times have changed. Now, every action of a Superstar, whether it is in-ring or on social media, is kept monitored everywhere. There has been a significant change in the attitude of audiences too.
The audiences, nowadays, do not cheer for anyone on the basis of his looks, rather they judge the Superstar's in-ring capability and mic skills and then decide whether to cheer or to boo him. That's the reason, why good Superstars also feel troubled in connecting with the audience.
But there are quite a few Superstars who are seen as big names of the modern era, who are charismatic on the mic, extremely talented, efficiently skilled in the ring, but lack a flashy finisher in their armory. One of the biggest things in every Superstar's success or failure is his finisher and signature moves.
These moves should be relevant to the characters of the Superstars. For example, The Undertaker uses a finisher named 'The Tombstone Piledriver' which seemingly crushes the head of the opponent. The name Tombstone is quite relevant to his character 'The Dead Man'.
Let's take a look at the finishers of the famous Superstars that are extremely mediocre.
#5 Glorious DDT: Bobby Roode
Bobby Roode's performance in the ring is wonderful and his mic skills are impeccable. He uses a lot of moves in a great way, whether it is a 'Spine-buster' or 'Slingblade', Roode's ring work is amazing.
But the thing that disappoints too much is, his finishing move. Bobby Roode's finisher is named Glorious DDT, which is no more different than the usual DDT. The only thing that is a bit different is Bobby hops a little bit before performing this very move.
The impact of this maneuver is not on par with his skills. An even better version of the DDT is the Tornado DDT, the impact of which is quite dangerous.
Roode should adopt the Tornado DDT with some modifications, in accordance with his wrestling style or simply, perform the Glorious DDT from the top rope, which will put some life in this move.
#4 Corner Running Forearm Smash: Mojo Rawly
There is no doubt that Mojo Rawly is a talented wrestler. He was given a big push at WrestleMania 33 but he could not connect with the audience. Thus, he failed to capitalize on the golden opportunity.
His finisher also contributed significantly in him not connecting himself with the audiences.
His finisher looks useless because it is almost like a corner splash, which is a fairly simple move and is performed by almost every wrestler. He has just added a forearm to it, and nothing else.
Rawley's stature helps his case in making the move look strong, or else this move was to stay at the top of the list. He should start performing his previous finisher the Hyper Drive again and should make this move his signature move.
The impact of the Hyper Drive looks dangerous and especially when someone with Rawley's physique executes it. This may help him in making a connection with the audience, something he is desperately in the need of.
#3 Dirty Deeds: Dean Ambrose
Dean Ambrose has been in the WWE for a number of years and has given many great matches. But there is nothing in his finisher that is enough to defeat the big Superstars convincingly.
The reasons why Dirty Deeds doesn't live up to Ambrose's caliber is that it is a variation of the DDT move, which everybody performs as a regular move and secondly, there is no speed in it that could have made its impact deadly.
So, the time has come for him to change his finisher. But currently, we do not see any other move that he can use as a finisher. So, after returning from his injuries, he should bring a new finisher, which may result in making his livid character more sparky..
#2 Reverse DDT: EC3
As everyone knows, EC3 is now a part of the WWE's NXT division. He has been at the top of Impact Wrestling where he has been a two time World Champion.
But his finisher is nothing special, it is just the opposite of Dean Ambrose's finisher. Ambrose also tried this finisher at one time but he stopped using it.
This finisher is not that bad if EC3 performs it fast. He should perform this move off the top rope, which will make this move scarier.
#1 Attitude Adjustment: John Cena
John Cena is the 21st century's biggest Superstar. He has left his contemporary superstars behind, in every case. This is why he is the 16 time WWE World Champion.
But the thing that always disappoints us is, his weak finisher Attitude Adjustment, aka AA, which does not have a great impact. This finisher was invented by him to counter Brock Lesnar but its impact is less than a normal superplex. The move is neither convincing nor flashy.
Cena also realized that his finisher lacks something special. So, he performed this move from the 2nd rope against the likes Finn Balor and AJ Styles. Although Cena did the right thing by performing it from the middle rope, it needs to be performed from the top rope to make it fully convincing.
