Almost definitely Misawa. Moves that were specifically created for him would include:
The C2C running elbow
Suicide dive elbow
Diving elbow
The weak-grapple axe kick
Rolling back suplex
Rolling elbow combo
Final rolling elbow combo
Emerald Flowsion
Brainbuster Emerald Flowsion
Original Emerald Flowsion
Tiger Driver (a standard now, but almost certainly specific to him when it was made)
Tiger Driver '91
Rolling back suplex again
Tiger Suplex '85
Stepover crossface
Rolling camel clutch
Top rope Tiger Driver
Tiger Driver to the floor
Tiger Suplex to the floor
That weird sideways German from back mount
Nose wipe taunt
That's 21 moves intended directly for him, which has to be higher that basically anyone else. That's not even counting stuff like the standing elbow, flying lariat, release tiger suplex, rolling elbow strike clincher, and others that were almost certainly made with him foremost in mind. Not surprising though, considering how much of what he did he invented and how iconic his spots were to him.

yeah, misawa has the most by far. when FPD came out, several DLC moves were for him alone. kobashi also has quite a few meant for him too iirc. mutoh has... space rolling elbow corner shining wizard c2c shining wizard rounding body press rapid dragon screw front grapple shining wizard front grapple original shining wizard (the anim. from the FPD DLC) flashing elbow shining impact bow-and-arrow guts pose wizard pose the ninja pose if you count great muta! hashimoto has... standing kesagiri chop jumping DDT from running and counter explosion middle kicks sweep kick kesagiri chop rush fisherman DDT (which iirc he almost never uses but shh) triangle scissors ore goto kare (backdrop + osotogari combo w/ naoya ogawa) kairyudo (osotogari + sweep kick combo, also w/ naoya ogawa) the "osu!" guts pose liger has... the koppo character stance stepping uppercut shotei (all variants) koppo rolling kick (though other people do it, i'm p.sure it's meant to most closely resemble liger's) shooting star press swinging frankensteiner koppo shouda rush upper shotei rush delayed vertical brainbuster fisherman's buster liger bomb angled liger bomb CTB fallaway german suplex top-rope fisherman's buster top-rope DDT the "oriental pose"/liger pose from older games the "arm soulful pose"/ shotei empowering pose if they'd added the stardust press earlier that'd probably count too!

Also, not to debate myself, but now that I think of it, Liger probably has him beat, especially with so many of his moves being from multiple positions: Rolling koppo kick (became, arguably, a standard, but most likely included so early because of him) Step Shotei Running Step Shotei Run counter Step Shotei Run to corner koppo kick Run to corner Step Shotei Shooting Star Press (probably the Stardust/Phoenix too, but I'll count it as shared with Hayabusa) Diving swing frankensteiner Shotei combo Shotei Uppercut combo Fisherman Buster (another now-standard that he invented during the lifespan of FP) Delayed Brainbuster (while other folks do this, I'm positive this particular animation was created to reflect his version) Ligerbomb Running Ligerbomb CTB top rope Brainbuster top rope Fisherman Buster corner grapple koppo kick Liger taunt the koppo stance There are others I'm pretty sure were meant for him, or at least based on the way HE did them: the release German, the kneeling crossface chickenwing, the top rope frankensteiner, one of the Romero specials HAS to be but I'm not sure which one, arguably the "New Japan tombstone," I mentioned the Phoenix/Stardust press above, but a lot of those are debatable and much closer to being standards, so it would depend on what you count whether he would "score" higher than Misawa. (I also may have overlooked at least one koppo kick; I'm just going from memory.)
EDIT: Ha! Maikeru posted about Liger while I was writing that.  |

I can't recall which moves were created for Bam Bam Bigelow, Chyna, Edge, Goldust, or Randy Savage offhand. Bam Bam - Fire Thunder, Cartwheel taunt Chyna - Low Blow, but this might have already been in Fire Pro G Edge - Corner to Center spear Goldust - Again, the low blow Randy Savage - diving elbow drop and taunts I'm reasonably sure the C2C Spear is actually for Goldberg due to the setup animation and the fact that Edge was only in the GBA games and Goldberg was in D (and his parts are in Z and R and Edge's aren't). |

It appears I don't know how to read. I agree with Misawa.

I always forget her name but there is a joshi wrestler who Sasha models most if not all of her double knee moves after.

I always forget her name but there is a joshi wrestler who Sasha models most if not all of her double knee moves after. It's probably Momo Watanabe. She uses the Meteora/Somato variations as signature moves:    Almost certain CIMA innovated, or at least popularized it (More likely where Sasha got it from):  Throwing in HARASHIMA's Somato for good measure:  |

Post by Zealot on Apr 2, 2020 15:40:23 GMT
Yeah. From what I can recall, CIMA was definitely the first to do the Meteora variety of double knees and HARASHIMA was doing the Somato before Riho or Momo started their careers.

Her case is is for the Somato only as far as I can remember. She may or may not have done a Meteora during her time in Ice Ribbon.

Has it been noted that Push Away also has the dropkicks' knock-out-of-ring property?
