@MusicDude10234 you try it at his size. He isn't known for moves like that. So he won't be the best at doing them. Gota give him some credit for doing it
Saw him try this move against Ray 'Bossman' Traylor at the Birmingham NIA and it was a hell of a sight. Nothing compared to the sound as he hit the mat though and I hear his son is in the wrestling business as well.
@class180matt its a well known fact that he could when he was younger, im not sure if he could do one now and i doubt he would even get the go ahead to do one even if he could.
the vadersault by Vader on Kenta reminds me of those half fat half skinny husband who marries an overweight wife and wants them to stand on top of the bed and jump up while they lay down and have all their wife's fatness land on top their body from the jump like I see a couple did on a celebrity news episode which would of broken your nuts or bones or in a similar case kill you
I've seen Vader hit the Vadersault off the second rope before. Not like a Lionsault, but he climbed to the second turnbuckle and hit it perfectly. I don't remember who he was wrestling, but it was insane.
yh i herd about that, yh no1 surviving is the reason we've never seen it, he blew up the whole room and the cameraman and the film in his camera sadly perished
I've seen Big Show (The Giant at the time) do a dropkick, but that's about it.
Utter annihilation if those 2 would've done it ^^
THAT was a holy shit moment for me, but after viewing a match with Kurt Angle when Taker came out and destroyed the ring with his "power" I think now that it was fake, but man that was pulled of well XD BOOOOOM!!!
Big Show could do a moonsault when he was training in WCW but he was probably just 350-400 lbs at the time.
One of the best moonsaults Vader did was against Sting in one of their legendary matches, it was perfect. Sting got out of the way though so Vader didn't have to be so careful not to kill the man.
Seriously, you gotta see and hear the impact of Vader annihilating Macho Man Randy Savage with the moonsault at Slamboree 95 along with Eric Bischoff's reaction. All he could come up with was "OHHHHHH NNNOOOOO!!"
taken from wikipedia "He polished his wrestling skills at the WCW Power Plant, where at one point he possessed the ability to perform a moonsault" and his weight did bulk out a hell of alot, and atm he weights around 507 lbs from what ive heard
and also vaders moonsault is impressive still it doesnt mean every large guy who does a moonsault isnt as impressive i saw a guy his size in nwa wildside who did a more impressive moonsault
yeh in his really early day he could hit a moonsault but then he bloated out and gained loads of weight and it became too dangerous, i think he bloated to nearly 600 lbs tried to hit a moonsault and couldnt even hit a rotation so they stopped him doing it
Awesome i love Vader, he is one of the greatest wrestlers ever. I really admire him and I hope he appears as a legend in SVR 08. YEAH!PS: can anyone post his match vs Cactus? Or any Vaderbomb or Avalanche Chokeslams? thanx, muack.
Vader is someone who lives to hurt people. He is the personafication of pain. He moves his arms and stuff happenes that hurts people. He can make any move stiff, much less a moonsalt. That move is beyond instant death.

imagine this move, except vader accidentally breaks his fall with the guy's skull.
That happened. Also to Kobashi. Kobashi is a legend simply for having a fucking career after taking a vadersault to the skull.
