Although less commonly known, the Celtic Cross is a fininshing maneuver perform by WWE Superstar Dave Finlay. He will pick up his opponent in a fireman's carry position and then grab the back of their neck so they are held upside down across his back. He then falls to a seated position, slamming them neck first into the mat.

Finlay won the match after hitting Matt Hardy with the Celtic Cross.
