** That's not just a "jumping back breaker", that's the [[Kinnikuman|Kinniku Buster]].
* Alex Mercer of ''[[Prototype (video game)|Prototype]]'' can pull various wrestling moves including a jumping triple powerbomb off the top of a building, a chokeslam, and running up the side of a building to do a multi-story elbow drop. The Super-Soldier enemy unit also uses wrestling moves including the Alabama Slam and a backbreaker.
** Its [[Spiritual Successor|spiritual ancestor]] ''[[The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction]]'' allowed the [[Incredible Hulk
* The main character from ''[[Saints Row]] 2'' can learn moves like the Death Valley Driver and Rock Bottom during the course of the Brotherhood missions.
** ''[[Saints Row]]'' The Third looks to continue this tradition with a gang of Mexican wrestlers called the Luchadores. Not to mention one of your revealed homies is an ex-member of this gang. Also, The Boss' melee moves now fit into two categories: over-the-top wrestling moves and [[Groin Attack|Groin Attacks]].
Line 217:
* ''[[Tokimeki Memorial]]'' has Yumi Saotome, a ''[[Joshikousei|High School girl]]'' who's such a fan of Pro Wrestling, she has developed a personal wrestling move, the "Yumi Bomber", a lariat/grappling-type move. She honed the move on her [[Butt Monkey]] brother [[Bromantic Foil|Yoshio]] and even on {{spoiler|the Main Protagonist}} in one of the Verse's storylines.

Anyone who wears a gauntlet (like Ding Feng or Meng Huo) also has a Frankensteiner in addition of a weaker version of the aforementioned Giant Swing.
* In the [[Conan]] game for [[
* ''[[Tenchu]]'' can get very wrestler-ish in some of the Stealth Kill animations, with Ayame being [[Beyond the Impossible|specially]] guilty of using overly-complex maneuvers.
** In a more straight example, Tatsumaru was given the Izuna Drop as his strongest special attack in ''Tenchu 3''. Unfortunately, it was removed from his playable form in Co-Op. [[Game Breaker|Not that he needed it, anyway.]]
Line 251:
* How do you stop a receiver who won't go down? Philadelphia's Brian Dawkins' answer was the German Suplex. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrLo-4DGV0Y Most awesome tackle ever.]
* Rolando McClain performs a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJ0LH_jiCDY&feature=related tackle on Rams receiver Danny Amendola] that may have made [[Dwayne Johnson|the Rock]] proud. Granted, unlike Dawkins, McClain got flagged for it. It also got a bit of [[Lampshade Hanging]] from the color commentator.
* The sport of [[
** Of course, part of that is the fact that pro wrestling grew out of amateur wrestling, especially Greco-Roman wrestling. In amateur wrestling, the suplex is pronounced suplay--a nice bonus for anyone who remembers Gordon Solie.
