1. Vader wasn't in the WWF.
2. Yes Earthquake WAS exceptionally mobile for his size.
3. He had more size on him than Vader did.
Sweet chin
Stunner
Razors Edge
Figure 4
Rock bottom
Diamond cutter
Tombstone
Sharpshooter
Pedigree
F-5
And that's just off the top of my head, which finisher you taking off that list?
Vader and Earthquake were pretty much the same build. Vader was billed at 6'5" 450 lbs and Earthquake was billed at 6'7" 465 lbs. And Earthquake wasn't even in the same realm of mobility as Vader. Vader was doing moonsaults off the top rope
What does Vader not being in the WWF mean? He wasn't known? Take that WWF revisionist history bullshyt outta here
Vader was a MUCH bigger pop culture icon than Earthquake ever was.
fine, would it have helped if i had said "no one had ever seen a dude like him before in the WWF?
how is the OLYMPIC SLAM or the ANKLE LOCK better than the earthquake splash.
Tbh Razors edge doesnt look all that cool.
The rest are all time great finishers though
His best run was obviously in WWF. I can't say I was ever that interested in his characters. Never really heard anyone speak badly of him though
R.I.P
Bam bam shyts ALL OVER earthquake
BIG BOSSMAN shytS ALL OVER EARTHQUAKE
talking about fitting gimmicks as a factor and then shyt on the olympic slam and presumably the perfect plex too![]()
thats kind of a side argument to be frankthe olympic slam didn't look like a lethal maneuver, especially in an era where swinging DDT's were the norm. it was a regular fukkin slam. if it weren't a finisher no one would bat en eye at it.
the perfect plex was top notch though, no arguments there. one of the GOATS. a suplex and a pin combined, the perfect plex.
but yea i have no problem saying earthquake's finisher >>>>>>> angle's
