[Kiffy Lube]

That elbow is quite amazing.

 

[Chriss]

Misawa's elbow beats everything.

 

[Dale]

Three Amigo's

 

[zigglerHEEL]

Three Amigos for me, Eddie's finest move and I'll give him the deserved credit as I shit on his frog splash earlier

 

[Deezy]

Even though Misawa inspired what is seemingly a million shitty workers who stole his elbow spot, and every Japanese match starting out with elbows. I can't go against it.

Expected everyone to be flipping a wig over Misawa. But I've never found him to be entertaining. Both moves here are pretty basic in their form. Ones just an elbow, and the other is just a series of Germans. In the end, I give my vote to Eddie, because he made the move special, and for his size, he was able to pull it off on almost anyone, and it always looked clean.

Vertical Suplexes are being called Germans now? Misawa elbows are done by damn near everyone in Japan and every indy show as a tribute, and the triple vertical suplexes were used for heat purposes.

[Tapout]

Ah yes, my mistake. Was thinking of Chavo, and Angels triple Germans. Got confused for the moment.

Still the same thought though, that it's just a basic move done 3 times.

 

[Deezy]

Same thing could be said about Angle/Benoit Germans, or Kobashi/'s machine gun chops or even Misawa'a elbows, they are just over moves. It doesn't matter how cool they look, or how innovative it is.....The most over moves in wrestling were simple things like an elbow drop and legdrop.

Misawa for me. Often Imitated never duplicated.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Misawa wins this.
