Can't view at work...
Is the Canadian Destroyer on the list?
Yes it does require the other person to basically do the move, but it is still amazing.

Wow, some really impressive looking moves on there, and I think every one of them was done on the indy scene. Which is to say that WWE and TNA wouldn't let their wrestlers do these moves. But that's not really here nor there, but some crazy cool moves.

I agree with Ben. I guess I long for some of the old school moves (single and tag team), but some of those moves makes me glad I got out of the ring when I did. I wouldn't want to be on the recieving end of a Spanish Fly or InfraRed.

For my money, the DDT and Piledriver are still two of the best finishers of all time, and I wish they still had the clout they used to. Everybody uses the DDT these days.
That said, I also love the Rock Bottom and Stunner, and RKO/Diamond Cutter. Those are just good entertainment if not as vicious as the DDT and Piledriver.

I always liked Goldberg's The Spear...it always looked painful yet simple.

I loved the piledriver gimmick in Memphis, wherein the State Athletic Commission had banned the move and using it was an automatic DQ, if not a fine. It's much the same was in lucha libre, so the move is viewed as something to fear.

The Powerbomb is my all time favorite classic, but I also liked the hurricanrana (partially because of the name) :p

The double reverse moonsault is out of order, just crazy wild.

Evan Bourne's Shooting Star Press is pretty spectacular, considering everyone else that did SSPs in the WWE either always landed on their opponents' heads (Kidman) or their own heads (Lesnar).

Most of those aren't "wrestling" moves, sonny boy (smacking my gums). They are dives without swimming pools, landing on a poor fellow or your head instead. Now walking on the ropes like that second or third one... the original Spoiler used to do a variation of that in the hold days... this guy just jogs across the ropes. I'd like to see him do that back in Spoiler's time when the ropes weren't tighter than blazes.

This may not be the most spectaclar move ever created, but the very first match I EVER saw was Jake The Snake vs. the Ricky Steamboat on Saturday Nights Main Event when jake DDT's the Dragon on the concrete...created an instant fan.

The freakish Styles-Piledriver is pretty insane. And the Kudo Driver and Air Crash Raid are pretty wicked too.

My opinion is that Goldberg signature move is the jackhammer, and i think it is pretty amazing. Even The Rock's move rock bottom is awesome as well.
