Submission Holds
Half Boston Crab: Also known as Half Crab or Single Leg Boston Crab. Performed by hooking one of the opponent's legs under one arm, turning opponent face-down, stepping over them and moving to a semi-sitting position over opponent's back, facing away and pulling leg back in order to stretch the limb.
Sleeperhold: Performed from behind opponent, by wrapping an arm around the opponent's neck, pressing biceps against one side of the neck, and the inner bone of the forearm against the other side. The neck is squeezed tightly. May be combined with leg-scissors around the opponent's torso or thighs. Used as a Submission hold.
Tackle: A takedown involving lifting the opponent off the mat, so as to rotate them and slam them down back-first. Opponent may be pinned depending on how high up the tackle was performed. May be used as a Submission (Ground Bearhug) or Pin depending on where and how tightly the grapple was applied.
Throws
Monkey Flip: Also known as a Monkey Climb, performed by hooking both hands around the opponent's head, before bringing up both legs to place feet against opponent's hips/waist, followed by shifting weight so as to fall backwards, forcing opponent to fall with them. A toss is performed, by pushing up with legs and releasing the hands, so as to shove the falling opponent into the air.
Scoop Slam: Body slams are any move where the opponent is picked up and thrown to the ground. The Scoop Slam is performed by facing the opponent, reaching between their legs with one arm, and reaching around the opponent's back from the same side with the other arm. The opponent is lifted, turned upside down, and then thrown to the mat back-first.
Pins
Hurricanrana: A head-scissors takedown, performed by jumping into the air, performing a head-scissors around the opponent's head, and using that grip to drag the opponent down to the mat. May be performed while running or standing. May be combined with Tornado movement (spinning around opponent, causing them to pivot), or a somersault. Can end in a Pin (double-leg cradle).
Schoolboy: Also called Schoolboy Sweep, performed by moving behind opponent, dropping to a knee, putting a hand through opponent's legs, hooking the opponent's hips, and pulling backwards. This causes the opponent to fall over and backwards with straightened and trapped legs, onto their back. May be finished with a Pin.
Tackle: A takedown involving lifting the opponent off the mat, so as to rotate them and slam them down back-first. Opponent may be pinned depending on how high up the tackle was performed. May be used as a Submission (Ground Bearhug) or Pin depending on where and how tightly the grapple was applied.
Tombstone Piledriver: Also known as a Kneeling Reverse Piledriver, performed by placing an arm between the opponent's leg, and the other arm on the opponent's opposite shoulder. The opponent is then lifted, similar to a Scoop Slam lift, into the Reverse Piledriver position, before falling or jumping down onto the knees, so as to drive the opponent's head and shoulders into the mat.
Attacks
Falcon Arrow Suplex: Also called the Sitout Suplex Slam, or Suplex Driver, performed by applying front facelock, then draping opponent's near arm over the shoulder. Follow up by holding opponent's torso with free arm, lifting them into vertical position. Loosen facelock to twist opponent, falling to a sitting position and driving opponent's back and shoulders into the mat.
Hurricanrana: A head-scissors takedown, performed by jumping into the air, performing a head-scissors around the opponent's head, and using that grip to drag the opponent down to the mat. May be performed while running or standing. May be combined with Tornado movement (spinning around opponent, causing them to pivot), or a somersault. Can end in a Pin (double-leg cradle).
Jackhammer Suplex: Also known as a Suplex Slam, lifting opponent up and over in normal suplex vertical position, before shifting slightly in order to throw opponent to mat on their stomach. May be adjusted to throw opponent down on their back, similar to a High-angle Body Slam. Can also be used for other suplexes such as Fisherman Suplex or Gutwrench Suplex.
Pendulum Backbreaker: A backbreaker performed by standing side-to-side and slightly behind opponent, facing in same direction, followed by reaching around the opponent's torso with one arm across the opponent's chest (under both arms), and placing the other arm under the opponent's leg. Opponent can then be lifted up, and angled so as to be dropped down back-first against the knee.
Russian Leg Sweep: Performed by standing side-to-side and slightly behind opponent, facing same direction, then reaching behind the opponent's back to hook the opponent's head, with the other hand extending the opponent's nearest arm. Then, while hooking the opponent's leg, falling backwards, pulling the opponent to the mat back-first.
STF: The Stepover Toehold Facelock, performed by grabbing a face-down opponent's leg, and placing the opponent's ankle between the thighs, before lying on top of the opponent's back and locking both arms around the opponent's head and neck, before pulling back to stretch the opponent's back, neck and knee.
Scoop Slam: Body slams are any move where the opponent is picked up and thrown to the ground. The Scoop Slam is performed by facing the opponent, reaching between their legs with one arm, and reaching around the opponent's back from the same side with the other arm. The opponent is lifted, turned upside down, and then thrown to the mat back-first.
Tackle: A takedown involving lifting the opponent off the mat, so as to rotate them and slam them down back-first. Opponent may be pinned depending on how high up the tackle was performed. May be used as a Submission (Ground Bearhug) or Pin depending on where and how tightly the grapple was applied.
Tombstone Piledriver: Also known as a Kneeling Reverse Piledriver, performed by placing an arm between the opponent's leg, and the other arm on the opponent's opposite shoulder. The opponent is then lifted, similar to a Scoop Slam lift, into the Reverse Piledriver position, before falling or jumping down onto the knees, so as to drive the opponent's head and shoulders into the mat.
