This week, we paid tribute to Hulk Hogan for his birthday. While the man is arguably the most iconic wrestler of all-time, many fans thought he was all shtick and no substance. If you really sit back and take a look at his arsenal of weaponry, it’s kind of a joke. So, it got us thinking, what are some of the worst finishers in wrestling history? We know there are a MILLION of them that could fill up a library’s worth of sh*tty books. Since we’ve already shown you the best finishers it’s time to take a look at the absolute worst. Check out our slideshow then vote in our poll after the jump.

August 11th is Teri Bollea’s birthday. Who in the holy headlock is that? It’s a real American, the man with 24 inch pythons, the man who just wanted you to let him tell you somethin’, brother. It’s Hulk Hogan. To celebrate his entrance into the ring known as life, we’ve scoured the internets in search of the coolest, weirdest, and funniest pics and fan art. Will Hulkamania live forever? Judging by our gallery, we’d have to say it’s running wild. Take your vitamins, say your prayers, and check them out along with some little known facts and the best entrance theme song to ever exist after the leg drop.

There have been reports Mark Wahlberg has stated he wants to turn “The Fighter” into a trilogy. Is this the next Rocky franchise? Most likely not, since this one’s based on actual events, but one wonders if Mickey Ward’s story warrants three feature length films? Prior to The Fighter’s release, his name rang few bells, but judging by its critical and box office success, one has to take a look around at other sports figures to see who’s ripe for the Hollywood treatment. In April 2009, Bleacher Report published their list of athletes who deserve celluloid dedications, now we have our list. See our selections after the jump!

Finishers used to mean a lot more in pro wrestling, and that’s not to say they’re meaningless now. However, there’s something to be said for the fact that since an epic match between Stone Cold and The Rock at Wrestlemania, everyone seems to kick out of everyone else’s finisher, thus degrading their value. Nonetheless, they are still a vital part of the storyline in the ring. When used in the right place, they’re the explosive exclamation point to a climactic ending. PLEASE NOTE: These moves are attacks and throws only. We didn’t include aerial or submission finishers. Those will be covered in the weeks to come. See our picks after the jump!

The Royal Rumble is today, January 30th. It’s a battle royale that often grants the winner a shot at the title. Another battle royale tournament, The King Of The Ring, came around and eventually was discontinued. There have been a slew of “Kings Of The Ring” over the past three decades, so we decided to take a look at the greatest blue bloods to ever don the crown. See our selections after the jump!

After the early success of The Expendables, it’s only natural that word of a sequel is already out. Everyone will have their speculations as to what actors should join the greatest action ensemble ever, including me. Although there are numerous unknowns who’ve cut their teeth in dozens of action flicks, The Expendables 2 deserves more household names and faces to share the explosions and fighting that gave every man with a pair a grin from ear to ear. Hopefully Arnold (if politically possible) and Bruce will get more screen time in the sequel, but the following actors should definitely be considered for major roles regardless.
