The above gif does not illustrate the devastation of the Romero flying knee.  On the broadcast they showed the aftermath of the knee where waterfall of blood was streaming off of Weidman's face.  Here is a video of the set up. (spoilered for size)

PVZ switch kicking Bec Rawlings is my pick. absolutely picture perfect.

since that's not an option, i gotta take VanNata's spin wheel kick. it is so reminiscent of Barboza/Etim (my favorite KO of all time) that i just can't vote against it.
