Most of the moves from old school wrestling are legit moves. Say the figure 4 leg lock. Watch how flair did it in the 70's compared to the most recent times. What happened was kids used to emulate the moves wrestlers did, and ended up injuring other kids. So they made the moves you see on TV a version of an actual sub that doesn't work.

This is a better example.

Another that resulted in a finish

Not but it absolutley should be.

 

[Danespina]

Pretty sure this is legal

So was there an edit when the camera shakes or is he actually just dead?

Watching wrestling they do a lot of UFC moves such as RNC's, armbars, flying knees, head kicks, superman punches etc. On the other hand while watching MMA I see a a good bit of WWE moves like the Rock Bottom, powerbombs, sweet chin music, and others. Michael Chandler recently took Benson Henderson to suplex city with a move straight out of WWE. What are some of the other WWE moves that have proven transferable to the UFC?
