The Worst Finishers in Pro-Wrestling History

SOUND THE ALARM! IT IS THURSDAY AND WE HAVE SOME WRESTLING BUSINESS TO TALK ABOUT!

The finisher is the move that ends the match. It is a devastating wrestling move that will knock an opponent out long enough to count to three. There have been some great wrestling finishers over the last 100 years. The Stone Cold Stunner. The Rock Bottom. The Pedigree. 

Great wrestlers are synonymous with great finishers. And through the years there have been several awful moves to end a match. Moves that make no sense or look like they do not hurt. some moves are terrible because the name of the maneuver is terrible. Here are some of the absolute worst and why.

The Extreme(ly Awful) Elimination Chamber

Sunday night the WWE put up another edition of the Elimination Chamber PPV. It made me think of a time when Uncle Vince tried to wring one last dollar out of the ECW Brand. Vince booked an all-ECW PPV and made the main event an Extreme Elimination Chamber match and filling it with 6 of the biggest superstars in ECW history. Like Test and Bobby Lashley. Instead of just having a cage match for the ECW belt, we got an enclosed cage with every area of the ring filled with weapons. It was Extreme! It was terrible. Find out how they shit the bed after the bump.

The Dog Days of Gambling

Football season is over "No More Games. No More Bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun." as the good Doctor wrote in his final passage. With football seasons passing comes the end of the gambling season. 

Only the most desperate of gamblers would consider wagering on the archaic sport of baseball. It would take a lost soul with a lust for a negative balance to place bets on college basketball this close to the tournament. So, what is one smitten with quick transfers of cash to do?

I'm 33 and I'm Tired










I'm 33. Except for a brief 7 year period when I was in college, I've worked moderately, to very, to not at all hard since I was 18. Despite being a social drunk I've managed to work 10-40 hours a week almost every week and I haven't even called in hungover for 2 or 3 months. Given the economy there is no retirement in sight and I'm tired. Very tired (The Super Bowl didn't end until well after 11pm last night).
