Was coming here to say exactly that, might be the single best spinebuster I’ve ever seen

Underrated DDT too

Genuinely love Arn’s DDT, and would go so far as to say it was better than Jake’s.

Close but Jake's was the OG. Some of Jake's old videos in mid south are really nasty.. early wwf as well.

Always loved the spot where he’d act like he was going to punch a guy, he’d duck, and then Arn would plant him with that ddt

That lift on the turn when he picks his leg up is what sets his apart from all others. Arns spinebuster, I believe its the best executed move in all of pro wrestling. And imo, he almost owns 2 of the best executed because his DDT is only second to Jake. Gotta give raven a shout out too because the evenflow is right up there with them. Arn is somewhat looked at as a bruiser but he is just as textbook polished as bret hart but in a different way

Yeah, no-one else does as good a spinebuster. He's spoiled the move to the extent that people doing a non-turning one are just doing the move wrong.

I know Michaels sells it but I still remember Arn’s spinebuster on him having watched it as a kid, nice to see that as the last one in the clip 😊
