Line 21:
* ''[[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers]]'': The Megazord does this to the Dragonzord during the fifth part of "Green with Evil".
 
== Professional Wrestling ==
* Justin Credible's finisher, named "That's Incredible," is a spinning belly-to-belly piledriver. This move is ''somewhat'' possible [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yz572FFYBYg in real life].
** In fact, starting in the [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] video game, ''[[Smack Down]] vs. Raw 2009'', you can CREATE a [[Spinning Piledriver]] [[Finishing Move]]. It's not nearly as [[Rule of Cool|cool]] as Haggar or Zangief's Jushin Liger-style versions, but it's an actual, honest-to-goodness [[Spinning Piledriver]]. ''[[Smack Down]] vs. Raw 2011'' probably has the best version yet - thanks to the new Corner Grapple position in Create-A-Finisher, you can make a top rope Spinning Piledriver.
Line 32:
* Ryu's Izuna Drop in ''[[Ninja Gaiden]]''.
** As well as the Underworld Drop and the Flower Garland Drop in ''2'', which can be considered as variants.
* The Spanish ninja Vega in ''[[Street Fighter]]'' can execute the Izuna Drop after using his special jump move and landing above his opponents' head.
* Guy in ''[[Final Fight]]''/''[[Street Fighter]]''.
* Wario uses this move in ''[[Wario World]]''.
Line 43:
* Yoshimitsu has the 'izuna drop' version as a throw from behind in the ''[[Tekken]]'' games. Armour King's Steiner Screwdriver is a mild (and RL-performable) variant where it starts with a suplex, then rotates the victim while vertical and drops. King gets one as a [[Finishing Move]] of a chain throw in Tekken 5.
* In ''[[Gundam vs. Series|Gundam Vs Gundam NEXT Plus]]'', the [[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ|ZZ Gundam]] has the standard Spinning Piledriver as one of its most damaging moves. The ninja-themed [[G Gundam|Gundam Spiegel]] gets the classic Izuna Drop, while [[Gundam Wing|Gundam Epyon]] has an Izuna Drop performed while in its [[Transforming Mecha|flight mode]], which is [[Awesome but Impractical]] thanks to the long recovery time afterwards.
* Morrigan of ''[[Darkstalkers]]'', surprisingly. Odd considering she's a [[Horny Devils|fairly skinny succubus]], but there are signs of her strength around. She can even deliver this move to building sized characters in ''[[TatsunokovsTatsunoko vs. Capcom]]''.
** That [[Hammerspace|jetpack]] she's wearing probably helps.
** Same with Demitri, whose command throw is an Izuna Drop.
