Christian using the spear as a finisher is weak as hell, and so was Edge back when he used it. I remember him 'spearing' people one after another at Wrestlemania 23 in the MITB match and the announcers were going crazy over how many people he was putting down, but really, it just looked like he was dragging them down to the mat by their waist. Didn't look hard hitting at all. Christian is even worse.

Roman Reigns has an awesome spear, though. He isn't a small or average sized guy at all and his spear even looked sick and convincing when he executed it on Ryback at the Elimination Chamber PPV this year.

Has Christian ever won a match with a spear? It's a stretch to call that a 'finisher' of his.

He beat Cody Rhodes with it for the IC title, I still wouldn't consider it a finisher though.

There's a reason Edge's spear was nicknamed the "running hug" by fans.

Christian uses the Spear as more of a secondary finisher, with the Killswitch being the primary one. Normally people kick out but occasionally he'll win with it.

How many people use this little "downward spiral" move? Like Bray's the best, but so many people (Cody) use a similar move...

Wyatt's and Ambrose's finishers are fine. Bray's with the kiss is actually fantastic, if it's sold right, as Danielson alluded to.

As mentioned above, you'd have to do something different if it were on Show or Henry, but you can say that about a ton of guy's finishers. I don't think Punk could get Henry or Show up for a GTS and most people who use moves similar to Cena's F-U (yes, I still call it the F-U in my head) have to modify on guys of that size, so that's not a big deal.

Doesn't he still use the Running Senton or not? Bearhug would be funny since he calls every one his brothers and sisters, and his kind of hugging them in a sick way.

I could've sworn I saw Fandango use the same move Bray Wyatt does at one point. He made it look like he was "dipping" his opponent all dance style like and then whipped them around face first into the mat. Haven't seen him do it since though. Maybe I'm mistaken.

And Ambrose's move is lame imo. For such an "unorthodox" wrestler, as they keep referring to him as, you'd think he would have something more creative. I knew it wouldn't happen, but I so wanted to see him lose his belt on NXT this past week. Would've been GREAT!
