Ron Garvin: Credited as one of the first men to use the Sharpshooter, Garvin would use the move much earlier than almost every wrestler on this list. He is not the creator, but he is one of the first to make it notable.
Chris Benoit: The master of all submission holds, Benoit's Sharpshooter was a deadly move that would look extremely painful in the hands of Benoit. He is most known for the Crippler Crossface, but his sharpshooter was deadly.
Shawn Michaels: The Sharpshooter is Michael's most controversial move. He rarely applies the move, but his name is synonymous with the Sharpshooter because of the incident known to most today as the Montreal Screwjob.
Natalya: Natalya, since coming to the WWE, has only had one finisher: the Sharpshooter. In honor of the Hart name, which she has lineage to, Natalya pulls off the best female Sharpshooter in professional wrestling.
