Asuka Lock, used by the eponymous WWE superstar, is a modified Crossface Chickenwing submission hold with simultaneous execution of the body scissors. Popularized by Bob Backlund, the move sees the performer imprisoning an arm and the head of their opponent, and it always looks effective.

Being one of the best in-ring performers in WWE today, Asuka manipulates the move to perfection, and it looks extraordinarily plausible as a match finish.

The number of bouts won by The Empress Of Tomorrow with the Asuka Lock contributes additional credence to the already strong finishing move.


#3 Brogue Kick (Current WWE United States Champion Sheamus)

Sheamus has used multiple finishers in his WWE career.

Kicks invariably look effective when used properly in a pro wrestling match. While there are some like Drew McIntyre who use their versions to great effect, it is The Celtic Warrior's "Brogue Kick" that looks the most convincing every time it is used in a WWE ring.

The reigning WWE United States Champion has tried multiple finishers since his debut, including "Irish Curse" and "High Cross." However, Sheamus mostly executes the bicycle kick to boot his opponent's head off before pinning them.
