Finishing Move
A "Finishing Move" is a term commonly used in video games, particularly in fighting games, to describe a powerful attack that can defeat an opponent in a dramatic fashion. These moves often require specific conditions to be met, such as a full energy meter or a particular sequence of button inputs. They are designed to showcase a character's unique abilities and add excitement to the gameplay.
In addition to video games, the concept of a finishing move is also prevalent in professional wrestling, where it refers to a signature maneuver that a wrestler uses to conclude a match. Wrestlers like The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin are known for their iconic finishing moves, which are often accompanied by a buildup of tension and anticipation from the audience.
