WWE Finishers Ranked from Safest to Dangerous

[@danielgrobbelaar9672]

The reason why the piledriver is banned for everyone except Kane and Undertaker is not only because they're incredibly tall and can more easily get the opponent's head above their knees, but because both Kane and Undertaker have an incredibly long history of being two of the most (if not the two most) safe wrestlers to ever step in the ring. Kane in particular has been named by numerous wrestlers as the safest man in the ring. What a legend.

[@KasumiRINA]

Undertaker was extremely botchy his final years. WWE had much better wrestlers who did cleaner piledrivers like Io Shirai (who's like 155 cm tall or something), and they still forbid them from doing these... Why? It's obvious Candice LeRae or Toni Storm botches piledrivers way less than some old barely-moving guy.

[@TGPDrunknHick]

@@KasumiRINA Taker was also wrestling very few matches so they probably hoped that he'd have enough control for whatever time he had left and from then on make sure they didn't have to worry about anyone else using it.

[@majinnemesis]

@@KasumiRINA the undertaker has much more experience doing tombstone piledrivers then pretty much anyone also he's usually taller then his opponents and he's stronger then candice or toni which all makes the tombstone safer

[@freddiemercury2075]

The irony is that Taker and Kane are perhaps 2 of the most fearsome wrestler out there. I remembered when I was a kid I had nightmares of Big Red Machine Kane. And unlike Harry Kane, The Kane actually won numerous titles.

[@maverick85]

Kane is particularly impressive when you also think about how brutal his moves looked.

I know it’s been said over and over, but it really speaks volumes about how much Vince trusts the Undertaker and Kane, as well as how safe and talented of a performer they are, that they’re allowed to do one of the most dangerous wrestling maneuvers out there on a regular basis when most aren’t ever allowed to do it

[@MALITH666]

It goes both ways. Taker on his interview said he is Vince loyal and leaving WWE was never an idea he even thought about.

[@SpicyElaichi]

nah, only the sit down piledriver is that dangerous. The one on the knees is pretty harmless since the opponents head barely hits the canvas at all.

[@revadarius2594]

@@SpicyElaichi Only if the person performing it is tall enough. A shorter wrestler would need to hold their opponents much higher to perform it safely, and then they're need to be much stronger in comparison to perform it - which is highly unlikely. That would mean there's only 2-3 wrestlers around the 6ft mark that are strong enough to do it and who aren't considered giants.

Undertaker and Kane did the Tombstone Piledriver, that move is relative safe as Taker and Kane's knee's absorb all the impact. It's the Traditional Piledriver and the Sit-out variation of it that is truly dangerous. Like that Piledriver that broke Stone Cold's neck, that was a Sit-Out Piledriver.

[@AdamPalomino]

Part of the reason Taker and Kane are allowed the piledriver, is that their patented tombstone version (which no-one else will ever be allowed to touch through gimmick infringement) is a lot safer than the version Owen did. Using your own knees as the stopper with the wrestler's head above them is fine but falling directly on your backside, using only your arms is all sorts of wrong for one's neck.

I think Attitude Adjustment is one of the safest moves which didn't make to this list. Especially when someone with a great core strength like Cena delivering it to his opponents. From lifting to landing down, Cena takes care of his opponent's head ane neck. He tries to ensure that the person lies down flat on their back. Anyone delivering an AA can have a good control over their opponent's landing, not just Cena. Plus it's simple and beautiful to watch. What I would disagree with RKO being one of the safest which it isn't. I agree that Orton might have mastered the art of delivering it safely but it's a very quick move and happens in a blink of eye. Not really easy to consistently deliver it that safely. High chances of injuring check and face with slightest of mistake. Props to Orton for making it look like what arguably is the most beautiful move in the history.

The Burning Hammer would be far more dangerous than normal or even tombstone piledriver.

The outrage is either from Kendrick using the move or Ibushi kicking out of the move

[@superbearchrist1716]

I will say the diving headbutt is the most dangerous move in wwe/wwf. It doesn't look as bad as it really is especially since you really own see a ring master do it as even a slight miscalculation on the jump or landing you're gonna end up concussed if you don't hit the stomach. Anything from the ribs up you end up hurting the opponent causing a fracture or worse. Plus looking at those known to use the move like dynamite kid being completely paralyzed, the move is highly attributed to the reason why Chris Benoit upon autopsy was shown to have a brain similar to an late 80s alzheimers patient. The inventor Harley race says its one of his biggest regrets in life. Meanwhile the piledriver is just freak accidents and has a much much less chance of injury or wear and tear by comparison. As someone who personally loves the diving headbutt as someone who would say in terms of ring work Benoit would be easily top 10 in history I have to say it should be used sparingly and as a finisher for a match that's heavily protected. I wouldn't say as protected as Kenny omega's one winged angel but pretty close to that.

The Pedigree is actually rather high on injury possibility if the giver is too forceful and didn't coordinate well with the receiver, other wise you will see more other than just Seth Rollings HHH and hurricane. The danger is not really from the facebomb, most wrestlers can take even a solid facebomb to concrete floor, the danger is mostly on your shoulders, because wrestlers are sort of required to be very muscular, they have too much back muscle and their shoulder mobility to the back is rather weak just like powerlifters and strongman, hooking the arm that way and carry the bodyweight with that hook can easily dislocate the humerus, easily, and that's why you only see top technicians use it, both people need to jump together or arms be off.

Before talking about how safe is this and that finisher - its good to have SOME experience even in real martial arts and not just in wrestling.

In Traditional Japanese jujitsu you are taught to "feel" when you are about to hurt someone. Just by sensing how much resistance you are going up against, as UKE, are usually taught not to resist much when taking a move. The most dangerous finishers are arial moves. How many wrestlers got crippled doing arial moves: Hayabusa comes to mind, Takayama, Ohtani. All guys hurt doing not even very complex arial moves. Hayabusa got crippled doing a Lionsault. Takayama got hurt the same way doing sunset flip. So the Arial moves are the most dangerous. When someone lands with a shooting star press on your face knees first - yes, that would hurt. Of course, head drop moves (Piledriver, BRAINBUSTER), are very nasty, but as we know, Droz got crippled on a botched powerbomb When he was dropped on the back of his head. So any move that drops you on the head or back of the neck is dangerous. Strikes. If you don't think that strikes are very dangerous you never been punched or kicked in the head (I have). Eating a roundhouse kick (BUzzsaw kick), or eating a flying knee (Shining wizard) can be absolutely devasatating if person doing the move messes up or if Uke zigs instead of zags and walks into such strike. Sakuraba was nearly killed by a knee strike to the head. Of course, Shibata, being a moron he is not only nearly killed himself with a headbutt, he put his match partner in danger. If you think that strikes are not dangerous take a look at Toshiaki Kawada, missing all of his front teeth. Frankly, every move can be messed up, even fairly safe belly to belly suplex or gutwrench. But generally, submissions are the safest moves, while arial moves or head drops are the most dangerous.

6:11 Ouch 💀

[@KINGD353]

I still find it interesting that wwe games deems the verdibreaker the hurricanes primary finisher.

[@shawnmichaels568]

Naomis finishing move is pretty bad, I remember wrestlelamia doing a video about this 2 years ago. Naomi should definitely use running DDT or Monsalt as her finisher

[@jeremywilliams5141]

Unless you're Yokozuna or Rikishi, you're not going to hurt a lot of people with your rear end.

[@Kronosthebreaker]

Very surprised the Swanton Bomb didn't make the most dangerous

[@theghostreckon316]

Fun fact: only 2 people kicked out the cobra, sheamus and Daniel Bryan, for sheamus it was with the cobra sock not on but Daniel absorbed the poison with 100% power of the cobra.

[@atlys258]

Michael's specific execution of the superkick/Sweet Chin Music dropping his upper body down to the same angle as his leg went up took the move from good/great to top tier, it made it look as though he were like a compressed suspension spring exploding and releasing all that tension and force. Holy hell, that frog splash onto the figure 4 actually freaked me out and i couldn't help but imagine how badly that could have gone for all 😳

[@jaxthedisintegrator8096]

Santino's Cobra was one of the most dangerous move in WWE. Imagine you missed and eat the eye, you either blind someone or kill him 😬. No wonder martial artists Steven Seagal who was trained by the CIA never used it !

[@chrishansen4691]

What? No Hogan leg drop on the list?!?! That's one of the most devastating finishers out there

[@jamiebrewer1110]

I don't think that yokozuna was in wwe but his banzai drop from the middle rope must be dangerous he's 550 pounds

[@scottdaniels8129]

Depended on how much he was trying to protect his opponent. Against top guys he'd land more on his feet and hold the ropes more to where it was fairly safe to take. The drop he'd do on jobbers was absolutely criminal, crushed those poor guys.

[@JDjade1]

Look for the video where Yokozuna did the Banzai drop to Dan Dubiel. You'd be amazed the guy's head didn't come flying off.

[@deekshantsharma136]

Who ever created the vertebreaker is a legend

[@XxEggman_Meme_GodxX]

It’s weird how the Chokeslam looks like the THE most powerful thing you have ever seen in your life, but is completely harmless. And the Tombstone piledriver, which looks really weak, is actually so dangerous only the inventors are allowed to use it. Not even as a normal move, but as the last hit in a match.

[@squiddwizzard8850]

Taker and Kane didn't invent it. Andre used it.

[@urquimedes4459]

What a GREAT fucking video dude. I remember 20 years ago watching these finishers and being enthusiastic about them, but now as someone understanding more of pain.... it's crazy that wrestling rings were ok about them. The vertebreaker and the piledriver dude... jfc

[@miawalker300]

I remember at my local indie promotion pcw, AJ styles wrestled Lionheart, and hit the styles clash on him and broke his neck. It's very very dangerous.

[@varenoftatooine2393]

It's dangerous when taken poorly, but safe when taken correctly. Every single injury was caused by a wrestler ticking their chin

[@FilmFactsUncovered]

Faarooq’s “ Dominator “ to me is the most devasting looking finisher ever and looks like you can get hurt if you don’t bend your head the correct way .

[@Kryyptik61991]

0:28. I dont know if this is real or not but why is the WWF block logo there

[@williammcdermott8692]

That's because this was a call back episode to the classic raw is war

[@RenzTimothyAncheta]

The lask one is called tombstone

[@karon718]

I would take the rear view from Naomi any day

[@o2cool264]

Same

[@saulisfunny]

Frr

[@jaywolf5818]

Eddie Guerrero made the frog splash famous

[@B1Baller]

8:45 Jesus Christ, his neck is finished 😬😬😬

[@wissam4920]

I love the safest to most dangerous videos

[@wiz1990]

11:05 Rollins used it on AJ a few years ago

[@darckto7247]

yeah in mexico the piledrive is called martinete & is bannend in all country not only in the big companys

[@mobyhuge4346]

0:55 Undertaker : "it was a bony one"

[@seraph2018]

I had the sharp shooter done on me once. Trust me when I say this. just a small bit of pressure hurts. Med pressure feels like your back is gonna break.

[@anjanalumba2868]

F5 AND AA IS LAUGHING IN THE CORNER😂😂😂😂😂😂
