This list includes some of the best finishing and signature moves players can execute in their matches.
Bret Hart's Ring Post Figure Four Leglock
Bret Hart is known for his technical ability, making the action intense, exciting, and realistic. He had an excellent run with Jim the Anvil Neidhart as part of the Hart Foundation, whether he was playing the good guy or the bad guy.
He could also pull off brutal-looking matches like the submission match against Stone Cold Steve Austin.

3. When the opponent is stunned in the corner, press the R2/RT and Square/X button.
Undertaker's Catching Tombstone
The Undertaker was considered one of the best big men in the wrestling industry. He was fast and freakishly strong, hitting his trademark Tombstone finisher from almost any angle. With trademark moves like his old-school rope walk-arm smash combo and the Chokeslam, Undertaker was more than just a gimmick or an attraction for the WWE. He had classic matches. The Undertaker is one of the wrestlers in WWE 2K23 that can pull off catching finishers in WWE 2K23, countering a diving opponent, and reversing their attacks into the Tombstone.
1. Ensure that the Undertaker has a finisher stored.
2. When the opponent jumps from the top rope with an attack, press the R2/RT and X/A just as the animation begins - watch the opponent's feet.
Bret Hart's Catching Sharpshooter
As mentioned, Bret Hart was brilliant at making any match exciting. His endurance and ability to tell a story in the ring always had fans invested in his performances, whether he wrestled for Stampede, WWE, or WCW. Despite his iconic finisher, the Sharpshooter, being a submission move in WWE 2K23, Bret could hit the move out of nowhere. This includes catching the opponent diving from the top rope.

2. When the opponent jumps from the top rope with an attack, press the R2/RT and X/A just as the animation begins - watch the opponent's feet.
3. Bret will lock in the Sharpshooter.
Undertaker's Carry To The Last Ride
During WWE's Attitude Era, The Undertaker reinvented himself by dropping the Deadman gimmick and returning as a biker. Entering the ring on his Harley, the character had a new entrance, and it was almost as iconic as his mystical walk-in. Along with a new persona, The Undertaker added a new finisher to his repertoire, The Last Ride. Like the Tombstone, he can hit an opponent with The Last Ride from various angles.

Shawn Michael's Catching Sweet Chin Music
Shawn Michaels is a legend known as Mr. WrestleMania and the Main Event. He had many iconic matches against legends like Bret Hart, The Undertaker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and more.

4. With an opponent on the rebound, press the R1/RB to launch them into the air and follow that with R2/RT and X/A.
John Cena's Attitude Adjustment From The Hell In A Cell
For many years, John Cena became the Hulk Hogan of his generation with his own words of inspiration with superhero-like performances against Randy Orton, The Undertaker, Batista, and more. He was a physically gifted athlete that even the Big Show Paul Wight considers one of the strongest men he worked with. John Cena has super moves like the Double Attitude Adjustment to two opponents. However, he can also execute the action from the top of a Hell in a Cell.
1. Ensure Cena has a finisher stored.
2. Climb the outside of the cage using this Hell in a Cell guide.
3. Get the opponent to the edge of the Hell in Cell and press R2/RT and the X/A button to execute the Attitude Adjustment from the top of the cage. The engine in WWE 2K23 still makes some actions like this temperamental, and it may not work reliably.
4. If the announcer's table is intact, the opponent will fall through it.
Undertaker's Chokeslam From The Hell In A Cell
The Undertaker has had several brutal matches throughout his career. Perhaps none was as memorable as when he faced Mankind/Mick Foley in Hell in a Cell. Foley took the worst bumps in the match, but The Undertaker is forever associated as the man who brutalized Mankind in their grudge match by throwing him from the top of the cage roof. One of the Undertaker's moves in the game is the Chokeslam from the top of the Cell.

2. Climb the outside of the cage.
