I'm surprised how safe of a worker Yokozuna was considering how big he was.

The first move that came to mind for this title was Yokozuna's Banzai Drop. A man as huge as Yoko was deliberately dropping all his weight on someone's chest could cause catastrophic damage.

Seth Rollins curb stomp is brutal

In case of the Leg Drop, Hulk Hogan is proof this move does way more damage to the person executing it, even if done for real. Most of this moves live from the sheer size, weight and strength of the wrestler, most likely the reason for Vinces love for powerhouses. This really makes sense, a cruiserweight doing a banzai drop would look incredibly funny. There is a reason even in mma there are weight classes.

Undertaker's Triangle Choke move was underrated

Yokozuna crashing down all that weight on your opponent is very dangerous as it could cause the opponent to not breathe causing damage to the lungs and chest, makes the move dangerous.

I would hate to take a banzai drop from Yokozuna. I don’t think you’ll be able to breathe with him sitting on you like that 😬

Undertaker is the master of Tombstone Piledriver move

You forgot The Stink Face, though not a finisher, it is still very dangerous for the recipient.

Shawn Michaels Sweet Chin Music to Shelton Benjamin is forever memorable

Burning hammer mostly used in NXT UK & other indies

I'm surprised the powerbomb isn't on the list. Also, the Jackhammer is a powerslam varition.

Underrated? No way. Show me a kick-out from the Bonzai drop.

I love this channel so much, and the great videos you make are always so interesting yet fun to watch. Please keep them coming.

The Burning Hammer...if you deliver this move incorrectly you could paralyze or break someone's neck.

They are dangerous yes but the fact that most of the time the wrestler walks out uninjured is amazing and shows just how professional they are.

Kayfabe is strong in this list. The double footstomp (coup de grace/Warriors way) is one of the most dangerous moves around.

Big Show's KO Punch is too painful

I’m surprised the Canadian Destroyer was not mentioned

Of course Yoko is on here he is very heavy

The banzai,the tombstone, the curb stomp... Great video lamia..👍👌💞💞

AJ Styles few moves are somehow real that why he never wants to bring back in WWE

The leg drop is more dangerous on the one using it. Not in a one time use but the constant compression of their spinal chord can cause swelling that could cause severe pain even paralysis over time.

Piledriver is the main reason Stone Cold's career being cut short

I would have added Samoa Joe's Muscle Buster given that Tyson Kidd nearly died from being on the receiving end of the move.

Yokozuna's 'botched' (or purposefully botched) banzais on jobbers were no joke.

It's the sit-out pile driver that's a really dangerous proposition for the person taking the move. Just look at what Owen Heart did to Steve Austin with that sit-down pile driver. He jacked up Austin bad enough to require time off and surgery. I'm glad it's not more used that it is.

Hurricane is the founder of Vertebreaker move

The Clothesline Jon Moxley literally gave Hangman Adam Page a concussion with it.

Goldberg's Jackhammer should've been called Botchhammer lol

The Burning Hammer is so dangerous that Kenta Kobashi who innovated the move only busted it out like 7 times and when he did the match was over.

It seemed that whenever Yokozuna was fighting a jobber he would land the bonsai drop full force butt first. The gentle butt bump was generally reserved for the top talent.

👍 welcome back original host guy

Everytime I hear the Curb Stomp, I think of the murder scene in the movie American History X

I would say a couple more like 1916, coupe de grace, power bomb and the style clash

As a kid many years ago I remember doing a camel clutch, Iron Sheik move, on my friend. We had no idea about wrestling moves and were just having fun. Let me tell you, he is lucky to at the very least not be paralyzed. His back let out a loud crack, so loud it scared me. It hurt so much he could t even cry for a few minutes

Big fan

#12 - Body Slam. Seems odd, but have seen this move done in a real life confrontation during a road rage incident. Bigger guy picked up smaller guy and body slammed him... right on the concrete ground! Not being a wrestler, and not knowing how to take a body slam; obviously the smaller guy was hurt.

You should also mention Bálor's Coup de Grace. A full force double stomp from the top rope to the chest or the gut would most likely be fatal as well

A kid gave me a tombstone piledriver in middle school. He was two or three grades ahead of me and basically a giant. We were outside screwing around, pretend wrestling or something, and he just goes "Hey, watch this." and basically just picks my scrawny 6th grade self up upside down and spikes me. I still remember my teeth clacking together. Luckily I wasn't hurt but man. I still think back to what could've happened.

When I was a kid, I kinda find some of these moves to be awesome and just flat out just regular moves in the ring. But now, most of these are just so scary to look at as the risk of broken neck or back is really there. Damn

Also Bianca Belair use burning hammer as well

Punk said when he and Cena got to the back, Vince was LIVID!!! Punk said McMahon said "Who in the hell gave you permission to perform a GD piledriver?! I ought to suspend you both this fking second!!!" Punk said he and Cena were laughing which only further infuriated Vince...😅

These moves are the main reason they say please don't try this at home school or anywhere

I wonder why the DDT or the last ride powerbomb wasn't on this list both moves are dangerous as hell if performed incorrectly both moves could severely injure or downright kill someone.

There were a couple times the banzai drop went awry and boy did my soul crap itself seeing it. Check Dan Dubiels botched one

This is why they always say 'Don't try this.' BUT it would be funny if there was a WWE video game where all the moves were real and you actually hurt your opponent. Like an over-the-top version of wrestling.

Somebody I know who was a Indy wrestler years. He was injured due to a pile driver. He got what was known stinger. He career was never really the same again

We miss maybe the Canadian Destroyer too in this list

Piledriver and DDT are two they can hurt you badly (especially when down on concrete

i use the curb stomp for roaches that come out at my job when it's cold 😁😂

I used to do "backyard wrestling" when I was a teenager in the 90s. It shocks me today to think of some of the dangerous things we did. I was a more careful kid than most, most of the time, for example, I would NEVER have taken a piledriver, and there was only one or two kids I'd take a powerbomb from(I was real skinny, so very light weight), but still. . . There were about ten of us. We could pull off MOST of the moves we saw on TV. We are all quite lucky to have not seriously injured ourselves other than a minor concussion once.

What about Rick Rude's Rude Awakening?? Which is a nasty looking neckbreaker. . .

I thought the earthquake splash would've been a contender in this video

Not only as an in ring performer but also safest worker AJ Styles is truly goated..... Most of the moves in his moveset are dangerous including Styles clash ,burning hammer ,brain buster ,springboard 450 splash.....he performs all the moves with perfection and is botched only when his opponent takes the move wrong.... Man's perfect in everyway

I’d probably say the punt kick is probably the most dangerous if done

I say pretty much almost all of Pro Wrestling moves can be fatal, if not done right

Me starting the video : Tombstone better be in the top 3 Tombstone at #9: What? That low? On this list? Leg Drop at #8: Ight, Imma head out.

1:48 "cough" bianca belair

Hogan was so petty when it came to losing matches he even tried to make Undertaker look bad by faking a injury but luckly for Taker no one believed Hogan and sided with Taker and then the following week Taker was forced to drop the title to Hogan because he whined over losing.

The DDT would be hilariously dangerous if someone did it on the street.

As a kid, my buddy and I used to wrestle on his back yard trampoline all the time. We learnt rather quickly why WWE always says “Don’t try this at home”

The power bomb too

I trained to be a wrestler and the leg drop is scary to take and for me personally when a big guy would jumps on you while you're on the matt was terrifying and would take your breath away if you didn't exhale before they landed and almost all of these moves hurt 🤕 they said you're going to get hurt try not to get injured.

Justin credible tombstone was awesome as was Jerry Lynn's piledriver too

Chris Adams was the first that I ever saw use the superkick.

Surprised the Unprettier isnt on here.

punt kick is dangerous move always get scared when randy hits it 🔥🔥🔥

Any move that involves the neck is the most scary because you could legit be crippled the piledriver looks very brutal indeed and should rarely be allowed.

Hell walking out to the ring, even walking backstage is potentially fatal

Lol, I just noticed Chioda’s face when Punk went for the piledriver. That was my same reaction when I saw that match live. The Banzai Drop, though. Probably the worst in the list. That’s a slow and agonizing death. That poor jobber! Dude was begging for his life.

You forgot Rikishi's version of the Bonsai Drop. That looked more devastating than Yokozuna's version.

I think the Coup De Gras could be on this list. A man jumping and stomping with force on someone's chest could be lethal when performed on the mat, let alone from the top rope.

I thought for sure the aa formally fu also real name Fireman's carry takeover would be on this list

Any variation of the Suplex

Samoan Spike should be on this list.

Don’t forget the Chokeslam. Can you just imagine being Chokeslammed onto a concrete??

One super huge big omission is Kenny Omega’s One Winged Angel, talk about a super dangerous finisher that even lots of pros aren’t willing to take

I feel that one other move that should have been mentioned was the flying head drop. That move could look like it can make people rise from ther seats based on its aerial delivery and how it could hit one opponent. However, the sheer risk and danger of the move made Harley Race (The creator of the move) regret having created it, as it can seriously injure your head if you don't land it properly.

Jesus. Yoko's maneuver is a claustrophobic nightmare...

Heart Punch, any move that involves knee to the face both potentially fatal

The best super kick i have ever seen was from the Tonga Kid he is Rakishis brother i saw him super kick a jobber once and he busted the guy mouth blood was coming out the Tonga Kid he went by a bunch of names but that was the one i remember the most

Clothesline especially the way JBL and hardcore holly do it

The curbstomp, along with Ortons punt kick was banned due to the association with concussions and cte. Not saftey.

Sleeper/choke how about Rowdy Roddy Piper's good night Marie or the Million Dollar Dream from Ted Dibease (sr). Pile driver ask Droz or D-Lo, or Stone Cold Steve Austin after his match with Ownen Hart about it. As for an expert in the brain buster, well ask Horsemen member the legend Arne Andrson about that one.

I think the Steiner screwdriver deserves a shout

The Jackhammer is not a version off a brainbuster ! it´s a vertical suplex too hell ;)

Should of mentioned how goldberg endee brets career with his leg kick when you mentioned the danger of super kicks

Burning Hammer rarely seen on WWE television today? Uh, isn't that Bianca Belair's finisher the KOD? Unless that's maybe a variation of it? Also any seated senton would kill you or severely injure you if done for real, especially if done on you to guys that big. Yokozuna and Earthquake used it as a finisher and in his prime, Andre the Giant did quite often after doing a boot to the face or chest to an opponent. He'd also do a regular big splash, which would really hurt if the wrestler weren't blockin a lot of that impact with their knees. Most memorable is when Andre did the seated senton off the top rope on both John Studd and Kamala at the end of his steel cage matches with them. I believe those were originally on Coliseum Videos. Ooh yeah, any piledriver very dangerous, as has been seen when that move was botched with Austin and Owen. Leg drop is more of a butt drop when done by a super heavyweight. And yep, just ask Bret Hart how unsafe a super kick can be. And I can see why they don't use the regular piledriver anymore in WWE. That's a pretty dangerous one. Even back in the day, I only remember Paul Orndorff using it as a finisher and later Jerry Jawler when he joined the WWF and it only sometimes being used as a high spot in old school matches.

The Banzai drop from what I remember seeing the only time when it was done incorrectly was when his feet just slipped on the landing. Case in point the one delivered to Jabba

I'm surprised the Helluva kick was not listed on here

Nobody mentioned the Canadian destroyer pretty sure that's fatal if botched

Thought DDT would've been listed, didn't they ban that move? Also diving headbutt lol

I was surprised the Canadian Destroyer wasn't on the list.

And also with the piledriver a famous example of it going wrong was Stone Cold Steve Austin getting his neck broken

Every time I see Yoko do the Banzai Drop, I think of The Revolting Blob from Billy Madison.

Goldberg’s superkick ended Bret Hart’s career

1:18 rarely seen in WWE?......looks like the KOD to me

Yoko clearly slipped on to that jobber, you could see his feet slide. He wouldn't have intended to intentionally injure the guy. Yoko was too professional for that.

To add context on the last move, a botched piledriver by Owen Hart on Steve Austin broke Austin's neck and massively shortened Stone Cold's career. That was the botch that caused the move to be banned in WWF/E.
