Lame finishers
The People’s Elbow started as a way to rib Undertaker and have some fun on house shows, and it caught on. Same with the Cobra Strike (except the Undertaker part). Started as some silliness on house shows and caught VKM’s attention. “That’s good shit!”

Male Wrestlers with the Best Hair
His wild hairdo with the dyed blond streak in it made that version of his character look that much more deranged.
Male Wrestlers with the Best Hair
One had a mohawk, the other had a reverse mohawk.
Male Wrestlers with the Best Hair
Actually the opposite of hair, but a pretty cool substitute.
I almost added “must have hair”, but didn’t. Oh well. 
Male Wrestlers with the Best Hair
Yet another nod to his father, the late Eddie Guerrero. Dom has gone all in, and it’s working. Dom is a nepo baby, but he’s earning his way and not taking his name for granted.
Male Wrestlers with the Best Hair
Dumb gimmick, but the blond mullet + red fauxhawk combo was something else.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
Pretty much the dictionary definition of “awesome but impractical”. It’s pretty cool to see it pulled off, but it clearly requires the cooperation of the person receiving the move, wouldn’t work in an actual fight, and I’m not even sure how it’s supposed to work in kayfabe.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
The announcers always say the pain point is the back of the victim’s head falling against the opponent’s bicep, but it seems to me the bicep would be more of a cushion, and hitting the back of one’s head against the hard mat would be much more painful. Maybe it’s because I once saw Sergeant Slaughter do a really lazy version of this move where he didn’t even hook the opponent’s leg and won the match with it.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
Why wouldn’t you just bite down on the guy’s fingers?
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
The Assblow in Glasgow just reminded me about this. It’s just a backdrop in the corner. I’ve seen it done where the wrestler was thrown upside down against the turnbuckles with the potential of a bad landing on their head and neck, but that’s not what anyone does anymore.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
My college friends and I called it the GLOW Throw.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
The point of those pads is to protect you, not the other guy. Pulling it down isn’t going to make you hit harder, it’s just gonna make it easier for you to break a bone.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
Wrestling refuses to figure out how to make instant replay a work, and in 5 decades referees, especially in tag matches, haven’t ever reviewed a tape and learned how to improve. Just like movies and TV shows needed to evolve in the cellphone/information era, so does wrestling.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
Somehow being thrown over the top rope incapacitates the extra participants aside from the two in the ring for several minutes.
Moves/Spots That Make No Sense
Why would a person continue to run? Wouldn’t they just stop or fall down? It makes no sense.
I don’t know if this answers your question, but “Running the ropes” is a test to see if the participant has the timing right and can no-sell the pain of contacting the ropes, because they hurt on bare skin. It’s like Wrestling 101, if you can’t do it right, you shouldn’t be in wrestling.
