Wrestler: Jack Swagger
Swagger’s finisher is a falling variant of the gutwrench powerbomb. Like the Meat Hook Clothesline, the finisher is self-descriptive.
Jack had a successful NCAA wrestling career, so the Gutwrench Powerbomb fits his style. The move is very technical and requires a lot of power.

Wrestler: Ryback
Ryback’s Meat-Hook Clothesline has no fancy name. It’s self descriptive.
Ryback does add his own flair to the move though, as he winds up in the corner reminiscent of Shawn Michaels. Where HBK stomps his foot, Ryback pumps his arm.
Ryback’s clothesline will often cause the recipient to completely flip over, showcasing just how powerful the move is. This move is commonly known as a lariat.

The Accolade is a camel clutch submission maneuver. Rusev will often stomp on a downed wrestler a few times right before locking in the accolade. The entire method in which he employs The Accolade can be described as “imposing.”
Rusev’s entire persona is built around dominance, and his finisher is certainly no different. Camel clutch submission moves are almost always used by large, dominant wrestlers.

Wrestler: Carlito
The Backstabber is a double knee backbreaker, and is one of the most painful looking finishers ever used in the WWE.
Carlito spent a majority of his time in the WWE as a heel, so a move like the Backstabber made sense. It’s a sneaky looking move and was semi-versatile.
