Wrestling moves are tricky, 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 throws to help you see wrestling for what it is, fake.

For instance, one of the oldest moves is the ‘banana splits’, although, nowadays, the move is now famous as the ‘leg splits’. This move entails the one wrestler putting both hands on the legs of the other wrestler and pushing the legs apart as far as they will stretch. This move will force the wrestler to put his/her own shoulders to the mat. If the wrestling move were for real and the wrestler failed to submit, his/her legs would rip some muscles, tendons, ligaments, etc.

The ‘Cobra Clutch’ is another of the holds that would in reality cause 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 his/her arm to tug the wrestler’s arm trying to prevent him from pulling across the neckline and choking him as a result. The back clutch, or bombard is similar but the challenging wrestler is on his back under his opponent extending his arms upward from behind.

The ‘Rock Bottom’ move entails the adversary drawing his opponents arm over his shoulder. The wrestler then places 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 really executed, would strain bones or cause some serious pain.

The ‘Choke Slam’ involves the attacker placing a hand on the opponent, gripping him and then lifting his arm close by his opposite side, over his shoulder. Then he lifts the opponent and slams him to the mat.

The ‘Big Boot’ is a running attack. The wrestler kicks up his boot, connecting with the face of his opponent. So, a kick in the face with a boot in other words! This would knock a person on his/her backside any time, causing the kicked person to feel severe concussion for a short time.

What makes wrestling so exciting is the shouting, the outfits, the characters and the throws. 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 seem like 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 although the moves are fake. Wrestlers must respect the ropes of the ring, as well as the colour codes in the ring. There are also styles of wrestling, which include the folk style, freestyle and Greco Romanian styles.

The styles have their own set of rules, however freestyle and folk style are similar. Usually, the styles are enacted so well that you wouldn’t know whether the wrestlers are using the freestyle, folk style, or Greco style.

As with a script, most of the moves are composed and rehearsed, which means that a director is out of sight 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.
