4. Goldberg’s Spear/Jackhammer Combo

You had to know that Bill Goldberg would sniff this list, because he’s put away two of the best wrestlers in the business with his spear and jackhammer combination. Those are the only two moves he does, so they had better be dominant in order to justify him being Brock Lesnar’s two-time conquerer and  the WWE Universal Champion.

It’s an immediate, guaranteed victory whenever Goldberg hits the spear, because the jackhammer isn’t far behind. After crunching his opponent in half with a move that has consistently been either a signature or finishing move for some of the most decorated superstars in the WWE, Goldberg vanquishes them with the jackhammer. He suspends his opponent in the air for several seconds, making the final impact on the canvas far more damaging than a regular vertical suplex.

Conventional wisdom states that Lesnar will finally defeat Goldberg at WrestleMania 33, but don’t be completely taken off guard if the WWE sends its fans an earth-shattering swerve by making Goldberg the only opponent “The Beast Incarnate” couldn’t stop. Given how many opponents Goldberg has laid to waste with these two moves, it isn’t out of the question for this to happen. Hopefully, though, we get a match that runs a little bit longer than Goldberg’s other squash victories in his second stint with the company.
