{{cleanup|Needs a better name - Wikipedia doesn't know what a "dive kick" is, and Wikipedia has a page for most [[w:professional wrestling strikes|professional wrestling strikes]].}}
A Dive Kick is a splendid [[Finishing Move]] in many media, having its roots in works based in the [[Tokusatsu]], [[Martial Arts Movie]] and Wrestling genres. As such, it has plenty of reverence among fans of all three genres.
Line 8 ⟶ 10:
Many fans of these genres end up as writers and creators for other forms of media. To pay [[Homage]] to all three, there are many moves based around the mighty Dive Kick. As a result, many characters in games revolving around fighting, like [[Beat 'em up]]s and [[Fighting Game]]s tend to have a dive kick of some kind.
Not to be confused with the video game ''[[Divekick]]''.
