No this isn't another thread about how great he is and why he should be in LOW.
I have an idea to use Arn in my fed, and I plan to create a card on him, based on bootlegs I've seen online. For his finisher, most people use the Gordbuster, which I'm guessing is a forward falling suplex. I know he used a spinebuster as well. However, did he ever use a DDT as a finisher? I remember seeing him use it from time to time, but I wasn't sure if he ever used it to finish matches. I was thinking of giving him the spinebuster as an Add 1 move and the DDT as a (+1) finisher.
I was just wondering if he ever did this in real life.
Thanks and take care,
Jay

I remember him using it to beat the Great Muta for the Television title when Arn returned from the WWF back in 1990. I seem to recall him using it for a while after that.

I was just wondering if he ever did this in real life. As I recall, yes, the DDT was Arn's finisher during the later portion of his career. The gourdbuster was basically like you described it. He used the gourdbuster as the main finisher during his days teaming with Ole and his first run in the Horsemen. (This is the era our LOW Bootlegs version represents.) I'm not sure when he started using the DDT as a finisher. I do recall on the second Clash of the Champions, when he and Tully defend the NWA belts against Sting and Dusty, that Arn at one point DDT's Sting on the floor. I don't think that was regular finisher at that point, but he was using it at least. I don't recall him using it when he and Tully wrestled in the WWF, but I could be wrong.

I agree with Travis but he will always be remembered for that spinebuster.

I don't think he used it in the WWE as I think they only let Jake Roberts use the move until he left.

I would give him the "Gourdbuster" as his finisher with the spinebuster an ADD 1 and the ddt a regular lvl 3 move. JMO.

I think from then on, he used the DDT as his finisher. I don't think he used the spinebuster as a finisher, just as a high L3O move.

Okay thanks. I have your bootleg, Chad, but for the way I plan to use him, I think the DDT would fit better. It's a quicker move that he can use on anyone, anytime, out of nowhere.
Thanks again everyone.
Take care,
Jay
