I know there's a thread that lists the names of every wrestler's finisher, but I wanted to speculate on the type of move each finisher was. Some are easier to guess than others: Carolina Strutter's Eight-Figure Leglock is very likely a Figure-Four, Brick Winchester/Roberto Samba/Gridiron ALT/ Haruki Enyu's finishers sound pretty straightforward. But what about Alexei Monstro's Russian Interference? I was thinking either a Spear or Clothesline from Hell, but idk

I don't think of Russian Interference being a spear, but that's because I see Son of Samoa's Harpoon as a spear.
I think the coolest finisher might be Szandor's Speak of the Devil, which appears to be a sleeper hold where he whispers evil stuff into the opponent's ear as he puts them to sleep. I kind of wish they'd given that finisher to someone better than Szandor, haha.

That's fair: Son of Samoa's Harpoon is probably a Spear. I'm going off the flavor text in the finisher descriptions, and Alexei Monstro's mentions the opponent being "lined up." I also thought it would be interesting if they both had Spears (Spear vs Spear feud maybe?)
I like Bao Zhang's Beijing Drill, but that's mostly because he's clearly based off of Tomohiro Ishii lol

I can't picture the guy actually wrestling. |

Szandor was the mouth piece of Persian skyline for quite some time. He kept saying, "He is coming." Everyone thought he was talking about Prince Sharif. Not long after the Prince debuted, Szandor turned on him and Doomsayer was born. Their feud over the years has brought both of them to legendary status in my fed.
If you can't tell, I fucked with Szandor. And Doomsayer is even better!

That is why I love this game. I can customize the roster in any way I see fit. |

I saw Russian Interference as a pounce. A devastating shoulder tackle that sent the opponent flying across the ring... or into the audience like Keith Lee did to Adam Cole.

I always thought of the Russian Interference as a variation of a Russian Leg Sweep - the name kinda fits to me and its got that Russian connection.

Bayonet's Air Raid seems like it could be any top rope maneuver, so I'm choosing to believe it's a Kenny Dykstra leg drop. That was a thing of beauty.

The Russian Interference, to me, feels like a spinning side slam almost like Big cass's finisher
