Line 59:
* In ''[[Soul Eater]]'' Black Star does a few random submission holds to [[The Chew Toy|He]][[Extreme Doormat|ro]].
* In ''[[Dragonball Z]]'', instead of martial arts, Broly uses moves like lariats and slams.
* ''[[Angel Beats!]]'' has part of an episode dedicated to helping [[Genki Girl|Yui]] learn how to do a German Suplex. Being about 90lbs soaking wet, she has some trouble lifting Otonashi and smashes him into the ground (in the wrong way) a number of times.
* The ''[[Gundam AGE]]''-1 Titus literally is a [[Humongous Mecha]] Wrestler with beam spikes from its shoulder and knee to ram or kick with it as well as a beam lariat.
* Kureha from ''[[Mayo Chiki]]'' does this often to her brother Jiro.
Line 91:
{{quote|'''Onlooker:''' The '''chair,''' ''give him the '''chair!!'''''}}
* In ''[[Cursed (2005 film)|Cursed 2005]],'' the main protagonist (geek-recently-turned-werewolf) uses several [[Narm|Narmtastic]] pro wrestling moves while trying out for the school wrestling team, including a backwards suplex in which his opponent is obviously helping him.
* [[Bruce Willis]] breaks out a belly-to-back suplex on Karl Urban during their brutal punch-up in ''[[
* Quinton "Rampage" Jackson in ''[[The A-Team (film)|The a Team]]''. In the climactic sequence, B.A. Baracus executes a scoop slam on {{spoiler|Pike, before dropping him directly on his neck mid-move.}} Bad Attitude indeed.
* The main character of ''Battle Girl'', AKA ''Living Dead in Tokyo Bay'' is played by ''joshi'' wrestler Cutey Suzuki, who fights an enemy [[Super Soldier]] unit made up of fellow ''joshi'' wrestlers Devil Masami, Eagle Sawai, Miss A and Shinobu Kandori. Needless to say, wrestling moves are included.
Line 169:
** Taki's back throw is a modified Inverted Death Valley Driver, with her lifting the victim up slightly above her shoulders before dropping him down on his head.
* Some of the unarmed finishers in [[The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim|Skyrim]] include a chokeslam and a supplex.
* It pretty much goes without saying that Travis Touchdown would not only use a [[Laser Blade|Beam]] [[Katanas Are Just Better]] but also wrestling maneuvers in ''[[No More Heroes]]''. And by finding wrestling masks lying around, he learns new ones. Travis is noted to be a former pro wrestling fan, and the masks have letters that help him remember various moves from his days of wrestling in Calgary (apparently). He also buys videotapes of famous matches (obsessively watching cool things on tape is pretty much how Travis learned to do everything cool to begin with) that he learns new moves from (incidentally, said letters are signed [[
* Half of solo developer [[M Dickie]]'s games are professional wrestling sims, and half are novel genre excursions - a time traveling military game, for example, or a convict simulator, or an ancient Judaean meditation rpg. But to save time and money, Dickie builds them all on top of the same wrestling simulator engine. The result is prisoners performing wrassling throws on one another, or your avatar accidentally smashing Jesus over the head with a plank of wood when you're just trying to give him a hug.
* Several characters, such as Sarah, Jacky, and Jeffry, of ''[[Virtua Fighter]]'' play this trope completely straight.
Line 185:
{{quote|'''Not [[That Guy With The Glasses|M.]] [[Running Gag|Bison]] but [[Street Fighter|Zangief]]''': ''OF COURSE!!!!''}}
** Konoha also joins the list of [[Ninja]] who use the Izuna Drop piledriver.
* Mask de Smith in ''[[
* Jack from ''[[MadWorld]]'' can performs a jumping back breaker on mook opponents. Using it as a finisher will cause the mook to split vertically in half.
** That's not just a "jumping back breaker", that's the [[Kinnikuman|Kinniku Buster]].
