It was Choshu.

Also Owen did it the best, even better than his brother.

Loose Cannon

Bret, Owen, Sting

In that order.

Bret says in his book that sting was using the move long before him . Rock and sting(these days) dont even sit on the opponent. Bret used to sit right back and it look like he was about to break the opponents back. Oh, look at that shawn oic on the previous page- he looks like a fag.

Bret Hart.

I've always liked this move more as the 'Scorpion Death Lock', but Bret's execution of it was beautiful.

The Rock's on the other hand, was awful. :nono:

Bret...followed closely by his late great brother Owen. After those two, there is a mile gap between whoever is #3.

Austin and Benoit, as someone already pointed out, made the sharpshooter look less legitimate when they executed it. Although I am a huge mark for The Rock, my opinion of his version of the sharpshooter is the same as my opinion of his version of the Stunner; goofy.

i agree 100%

Sting

fuck you I love Sting

Also that Edge video seems to be of the Edgucator or whatever the fuck he called it

Yeah, wikipedia has the Edgucator listed as a modified sharpshooter so I included it.

oh alright then

he does use a non modified one now though

Anyone who voted for The Rock and was serious about it needs to be shot.

I love the Rock and think he was a great worker and showmen... but easily the worst sharpshooter ever.

Yeah, I feel the same way.

Thank you. Not only does Hogan have stiff and thick legs to begin with, in recent years he hasn't been known for being the most cooperative fellow. The Sharpshooter he put on Benoit at the Backlash following WM20 was much better done.

You're asking for sense from a drooling Hart mark?

I forgot who said this (it was someone from here a few years back), but my favorite description of The Rock doing the Sharpshooter was, "It looks like he's taking a crap in the woods."

Bret. But Konnan taught him how to apply it so....

I don't understand how you fuck up that move. it's very easy to apply to someone. I guess maybe because Rock was a bit taller, it was harder for him.

The best thing about the Rock's Sharpshooter was the bowel movement face.

Should really be Which Do You Like Better? Bret's Sharpshooter or Sting's Scorpion Deathlock. Owen, Sting and Benoit's look really similar if not exactly the same. They are different height and build so there maybe be little differences. The other versions are an abomination.

Always amazed when I see the video or picture of Bret pulling that move on Austin and how he never messed up and break Austin's leg.

Bret had the best looking sharpshooter but I always liked the taunt Owen would do with his sharpshooter. The Rock's version is always worth a :lol: but also seems to have occurred around same time WWE began pushing away from submissions as legit match enders and more as a regular move or easily broken.

1. Isn't that a video game?
2. I remember the announcers referring to that move as a figure four.

Triple Naitch is right on both counts.

It was just thrown in for awesomeness. It's in the second vid at 2:40.

bret stole it from owen, it was his hold...ha

Chris Benoit is the greatest Canadian wrestler to ever live.

/bait

I love both Bret and Chris, but I did like Chris more. YOU SHALL NOT BAIT ME

Bret Hart 100%

I think Shawn's sharpshooter was by far the most effective though. Bret was out for like 10 years after that. Cried almost everyday because of it too. I would not want to be on the recieving end of a Shawn Michaels sharpshooter.

Yeah its from a video game but based on a real life move Bret did a few times. Didn't mean to imply that was a sharpshooter but more of how amazing it was Bret never accidentally harmed anyone with it.

I went with the rock because he is the man
