Tombstone
-It really shows how "deadly" this move is.

Vertabreaker
-A move that claims to break one's vertebra is fantastic.

8 Second Ride
-Perfect for any cowboy gimmick.

Diamond Cutter
-Aside from DDP using that, anything that can cut a diamond has to be threatening.

Death Valley Driver
-Fantastic name all around

Doomsday Device
-From there, it's over. I don't care if it's the worm or the finger poke of doom, that name means game over.

Superkick
-Simple, easy, and as quick to say as it is to hit.

Bossman Slam
-While this is gimmick specific it has a great sound to it.

Jackknife
-Aside from being one of my favorite power bombs it could be used for any move.

Pedigree
-That name outlasted the gimmick.

pedigree is probably one of the worst named moves out there

that doesn't make it a good name, it makes it even shittier, especially when you consider it was lame to begin with.

See, that name is ridiculous to the point of being Awesome.

Sliced Bread #2 just sounds so nonthreatening and sounds like something someone named something equally ridiculous and equally nonthreatening like "Spanky" should use.

But it's implying it's the 2nd greatest thing ever or the new greatest thing ever. Das is cool mon! I mean, how threatening does a 'Pedigree' sound? Doesn't stop it from being over like a bitch.

I usually played for Axis, therefore the right team.

Anaconda Vise (it just sounds threatening for some reason, and in a bizarre way, the double-meaning of "vise/vice" plays into Punk's character)
Avada Kedavra (so cheesy, but for some reason it seems to fit what I imagine Seth Rollins' future WWE character to be)
DDT (what originally made sense as the name of Jake "The Snake" Roberts' finishing move has now become the official name of the move)
Diamond Cutter
Eat Defeat
FU (the way it started made perfect sense, and just caught on)
Get Well Soon
God's Last Gift
Golden Rule (Matt Striker's version of the Zack Attack)
Last Ride (not only fit The Undertaker's biker gimmick, but his undead one too)
Sliced Bread #2 (so good it doesn't need to be in alphabetical order)
Twist of Fate
Mooregasm (Hey, I'm a sucker for puns)
Nightmare on Helms Street
Rock Bottom (I used to hate it, but it's about the only thing you can really name the move)
Sharpshooter
Sweet Chin Music (was never a big fan of the name itself, but it fits, and I think someone using the Superkick could call it that and get their move over as an instant finisher)
Walls of Jericho
Vertebreaker

I also want to mention the names of Curt Hawkins' and Michelle McCool's moves. I don't know if they name them themselves, but they sound pretty good:

Michelle McCool:

* Faith Breaker
* MAD-T (Make a Diva Tap)
* Simply Floored (a play off LayCool's "Flawless!" catchphrase)

Curt Hawkins:

* Heat Seeker (although this has been changed to "Heat Seeking Elbow")
* The Laugh Riot
* Taste of Pain

"Burning Hammer"

For a modified fireman's carry drop, it sounds so much more lethal.

It took WAY too long for "Rock Bottom" to get mentioned. It always seemed to flow perfectly with the rest of his persona.

Stone Cold Stunner.

Pedigree.

Tombstone Piledriver.
