also gotta post this classic track named after the Perfect Plex

AA must be one of the least impactful looking finishers ever. Like "first bump you learn at wrestling school" level of devestation. It is impressive when he lifts a big guy up tho

Perfect plex is one of the GOAT most memorable signature moves. Easy vote here

 

[El Guapo]

Cena lifting big guys for the AA is impressive, but the Perfect Plex has more pizzazz to it.

Plus that time he hit The Giant with it (I guess it loses effectiveness because Giant kicked out though lol)

Perfect plex

Edit - Is that Peyton Royce doing the perfect plex? I had no idea she did that move. Why did she stop using it

 

[Cartier Murphy]

Both moves lack impact to me, and outside of Hennig, I didn’t think anybody else ever executed the Perfect Plex as well as he did. His had speed, some snap, and it looked like he was really hauling his opponent to the mat. Look at his son’s version in that gif in the OP, that looks light as a feather, and the two done by Peyton look as impactful as a body slam.

AA wins for me due to those factors. While it can look light sometimes too, I think more often than not it always was a believeable finish and always done well

I liked the AA better when it was called the FU

 

[Jim Cornette]

Both kinda weak...

Perfect plex just looks better

 

[DAH Padre]

“And now you will see...A Perfect Plex!”

 

[threattonature]

Perfectplex easily for me. It was one of my go to moves when we'd wrestle as kids.

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

AA, can be done off the top rope and can look really effective putting someone through a table with it

 

[Tres Leches]

Is the AA perfect?

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Don’t like how the Perfect Plex has turned into a transition move. Also, the AA when it looked like a Death Valley Driver variation was far better than the regular AA.
