Finlay's Finisher?
 
What is Finlay's finisher's real name? I know I've seen it before but I can't remember what it's called.

And while we're at it, who has/does use it?

TerranRich 05-13-2006 09:12 PM

From WWE:

Signature Move: The Celtic Cross

Never underestimate their own website ;)

Xero 05-13-2006 09:15 PM

I know what they call it, I'm wondering what it's really called. Not gimmicked.

That's it! :y:

TerranRich 05-14-2006 12:13 PM

Ah, didn't know what you meant. But yeah, Emerald Fusion. I know that from first seeing it used in No Mercy N64 ;)

Fignuts 05-14-2006 04:29 PM

It's not emerald Fusion.

THQ calls it a Emerald Fusion for some reason.

It's got a whole bunch of names.

Shwein, Modest Driver, Backdrop Driver

Pretty sure Mike Modest created it, though.

Kryptanite Krunch

thecc 05-14-2006 04:58 PM

I believe it's also called the air raid crash.

Afterlife 05-14-2006 05:01 PM

Well, if it has 'a whole bunch of names', then...Emerald Fusion is one of them.

Outside of video-games and backyard wrestling I have never heard it called that.

TerranRich 05-14-2006 05:44 PM

It's the backdriver fusion rearplex backdrop cross-go-behind arm drop. There.

Kryptonite Krunch

The Kryptonite Krunch is an over the shoulder back to belly piledriver in which the wrestler shoulders the opponent by clutching him/her around the knees and lifting him/her onto his/her shoulder so that the opponent's head is dangling by the waist of the wrestler. The wrestler then holds the opponent in place by holding his/her leg with one arm and applies a headlock to the opponent with his/her other arm. The opponent is now bent into a circle. The wrestler then drops to a seated position, driving the head of the opponent into the ground.
The move was named Kryptonite Krunch by Nova, although it has been done for years under many other names like the Reality Check and the Schwein.
Another method used when performing this over the shoulder piledriver sees the attacking wrestler lift the opponent over one shoulder but bring him/her across the wrestler's back and place the opponent's head under the other arm. This version is best known as Mariko Yoshida's Air Raid Crash, a name which is often wrongly used when referring to the Kryptonite Krunch.



The Emerald Fusion(also called Emerald Frosion) is this:

http://www.yucubetoo.com/moves/Emerald_Frosion.gif

Emerald Frosion

This is a sitout side powerslam in which the wrestler lifts the opponent up on his right shoulder like in a Front powerslam. The wrestler wraps his right arm around the opponent's neck, and the left arm around the opponent's torso. The wrestler then sits down while flipping the opponent forward to the right side of him, driving the opponent neck and shoulder first into the mat.
The move was named by Mitsuharu Misawa. There is no direct translation from the Japanese language name "エメラルドフロウジョン (Emeraludo Furoujon)". Emerald Frosion is the most common one, as it's the closest to the pronunciation. Other translations are Emerald Fusion and Emerald Flowsion.
Other notable users include: Tommy Dreamer (Dreamer Driver), Bam Bam Bigelow ("Greetings from Asbury Park")
Misawa has also used a variation, called Super Emerald Frosion, where he lifts his opponent upside down like in a Vertical suplex, turns him 180° while still keeping the headlock, places his left arm around the opponent's torso, and sits down leaning to his right, driving the opponent vertically down to the mat on his neck and shoulders

Just click on the one that says Emerald Frosion

What Would Kevin Do? 05-15-2006 12:39 AM

I have no clue how peeps can confuse the Schwein with the Emerald Frosion/Fusion/whatever.

Then again, I'm a total CIMA mark, so yeah.

TerranRich 05-15-2006 10:15 AM

Ah okay, the Emerald Fusion is slightly different than the Celtic Cross. You know, I once found a page (back in, like, 1998) with every single finisher and its technical name. Like the Rock Bottom was called the Uragatame or something like that, etc.

TerranRich 05-15-2006 12:33 PM

That's it!

But does anyone know what site I'm talking about?

Mr. Monday Morning 05-15-2006 04:38 PM

Yeah Emerald Frosion also = Samoa Joe's Island Driver

TerranRich 05-15-2006 04:46 PM

That almost sounds like a cocktail. "Can I have a Samoe Joe's Island Driver please?"
