- body slam (standard)
- ". . .Okay-you, little big lady"-he's
motioning with his fingers for me to step forward-"do you
know what a body slam is?" Before I can answer,
Walter cuts the guy in the Bebe T-shirt from the herd, has Bebe
standing in front of me. "See if you can pick him up. One
arm over the shoulder, the other in the crotch, there, okay,
easy, easy then-" BLAM! I slammed Bebe down" (Laurer,
134)

- chop
- "The thing about chops
is they really hurt. When you chop somebody, you just slap them
in the chest, as hard as you can. That's all there is to it.
The better contact you get, the better noise you make, and the
better the chop looks. It justs hurts, period." (Hardy,
p. 81)

- clothesline
- "A clothesline is a simple
contact/momentum move. With your opponent coming full-bore at
you, you stick out your arm, catching him-or her-in the chest
and neck and violently stopping his forward momentum, with spectacular
results." (Laurer, p. 82)

- flying head scissors
- "Eddie [Guerrero] used this move on
me called a "flying head-scissors" where
he jumps up, puts his legs around your head, then arches his
back and flips you over onto your back. It looks brutal, like
he flops you on your head. If yo flip and roll, you actually
land on your back and your fine." (Angle,
p. 235)

- leg drop
- "Every night I drop that leg drop
and every night it hurts. It hurts me a lot worse than the guy
I'm dropping it on! Basically, to jump off the top and land on
your ass just plain hurts! That's probably one of the reasons
my lower back is always so tight, because the leg drop
is such a regular part of my arsenal." (Hardy,
pp. 181-182)

- moonsault
- ". . .in our match we decided that I
would do a moonsault off the top rope-a bakflip
where I would do a moonsault off the top rope-a backflip where
I splash on top of him on the canvas. I'd never done one, and
I didn't really know where to set him down on the canvas. When
I did it. I set him out a little too far, and I campe up short.
So instea dof landing on him whith my chest and stomach, my leggs
landed on him" (Angle, p. 222)

- pedigree
- ". . .[Triple H] set me up for the Pedigree-his
finishing move. When he does the move, he bends you over, puts
your head between his legs, tucks your arms behind your back,
and locks them there. Then he jumps up, you jump up, and you
land face-first on the mat. (Angle, p.
229)
