Wrestling moves are not straight-forward, since if you are not looking closely, you could believe that the acts are real. At the moment, I am still a little reluctant to fill you in on the throws, since I am not a wrestling fan, however my son is, and he is going to give us the inside information on wrestling moves to help us see it for what it is, fake.
One of the older moves is the banana splits. However, today, the move is known as the 'leg splits'. During this move, one starts wrestling with both hands on the legs of the other wrestler and splits the legs apart as far as the legs will go. This move will force the wrestler to push his/her own shoulders to the mat. If the wrestling move were for real and the wrestler fails to submit, his/her legs would split some muscles, tendons, ligaments, etc.
The 'Cobra Clutch' is yet another of the holds that would actually cause real agony. The cobra move is universally recognizable as the cross chokes or arm locks. The challenging wrestler will come from the back of the other pugilist and using a single arm in the "Nelson Hold". The opponent will then use an arm to pull the wrestler's arm trying to prevent him from pulling across the throat and choking him as a result. The back clutch, or bombard is a similar move, but the challenging wrestler is on his back under his opponent extending his arms upward from behind.
The 'Rock Bottom' move entails the adversary pulling his opponents arm over his shoulder. The wrestler then pulls the opponents arm over his/her shoulder and lifts and dives forward onto the mat. During this attack, the challenger is hitting the mat head first, which if actually executed, would strain bones or at least result in some serious pain.
The 'Choke Slam' is the move when the attacking wrestler grips the opponent's arm and lifts his arm close by his opponent's side, over his shoulder. Then he lifts the opponent and throws him down onto the mat.
The 'Big Boot' is a running attack. The wrestler kicks up his boot, connecting with the face of his opponent. So, a boot in the face, in other words! This would definitely put a person on his/her rear any time, causing the kicked person to feel severe giddiness for a short time.
What makes wrestling so exciting is the phoney dialogue, the outfits, the characters and the moves. If you think of the movie Superman, and how he dresses, you will see that without his outfit he wouldn't have any character appeal as Superman. Likewise, the wrestlers wear outfits that make them appear as though they are super heroes of the ring, indicting the villains. Each wrestler has his/her role in the ring. It is usually quite placid, but made to look violent!
Wrestling has rules, as well as restrictions, even though the moves are all phoney. Wrestlers must respect the perimeters of the ring, as well as the colour codes in the ring. There are also methods of wrestling, which include the folk style, freestyle and Greco Romanian styles.
There are also methods of wrestling, which include the folk style, freestyle and Greco Romanian styles. Each of the styles has its own set of rules, although the freestyle and folk style are fairly similar. Usually, the styles are used so well that you wouldn't know which style the wrestlers are using.
As with a script, most of the moves are composed and rehearsed, which means that a director is off camera using his/her hands to direct the wrestlers in the rings. For the most part, wrestling is nothing more than an act with a few exemptions like when the KAYFABE brakes down, when a real fight can break out. The KAYFABE is wrestling's means of verbal communication.
