What was the worst looking submission ever?
What was the worst looking submission you've ever seen a wrestler apply and actually win the match with? I'd have to say John Cena defeating Triple H at Wrestlemania 22 with the STFU. It looked like complete horseshit and created a totally unbelievable ending to an otherwise decent match.

Off the top of my head, the STFU is consistently the worst applied submission. Cena doesn't even wrench back on the neck at all. He just kind of clamps their face between his forearms and pretends to be putting effort into it.

STFU and Walls of Jericho when he pussified the move.
I also find the Crippler Crossface rather shitty. Seriously, pull your arm out of his legs. |

STFU, Rocks Sharpshooter, and the post-Liontamer Walls Of Jericho. In that order.
Austin actually did the Walls Of Jericho better than Y2J did at Vengeance 2001. |

When exactly did Jericho change the walls of Jericho? I've always been under the impression that the change was made after Triple H's quad injury.
It always looked great before that. |

Yea, it just always seemed to me like it changed almost exactly around that time.
He put Triple H in the walls on the announce table after his tear, and did the walls the old way. Since then I haven't seen him do it the proper way. He definitely made the change at some point in the Summer of 2001. |

Kennedy did a pretty shitty looking submission at the Rumble.
At first I thought he was going for a figure four and fucked up. |

I always thought Meng's Tongan Deathgrip was a pretty ridiculous submission move. It was LOL worthy even as a 10 year old kid.

As for the Crossface, the way Benoit does it now, he doesn't lock his legs around the victim's arms anymore. It looked more vicious in WCW. |

Nobody said the masterlock? I mean the guy gave a special name to a full nelson and now it knocks you out. It's got to be the People's elbow of submission moves.

This guy put me in the lion tamer in a match and I was set to win, but I almost tapped out the asshole did it so hard and wouldn't fucking let go or let me get to the ropes, he had it on for like 3 minutes seriously. I didn't want to just stand up out of it and make him and me look bad either I couldn't do any heel moves like grabbing the ref or trying for a low blow (don't know how I'd pull that off anyway), so it was like I was stuck, Plus it was for the junior heavyweight title and it was this big match and shit.
Good times. |

Also any bear hug where the guy doesn't lift the opponent. I don't care how strong you are a hug just doesn't look scary.

I still think Kennedys half ass deathlock or whatever it was at RR was the worst submission move in recent memory. I thought this at the time, and the thread just happened to come up. Consistently tho, I'd say the STFU.
