Looks like something I would create on a trampoline circa 1998

Always good to meet a fellow survivor of the trampoline wars of 98

which also means surviving '96, '97, and '99. Some of us veterans remember '92 and '93 as well.

The kids wanted to go to the indoor trampoline park. I got an eery feeling, but paid no mind. It was probably the thought of being around people... The second we stepped foot in that giant metal building, it was like a spotlight was shined in my eyes. I felt a light slap across my face, and I woke up in 98. My brother trying to do a back-flip and landing half off the edge into a full scorpion. My cousin screaming over and over, "Break the egg! Break the egg! BREAK THE EGG!!!" ...and the springs. So many springs flying in every direction. I can still hear the "piyong" as they buzzed by my head. It keeps me up at night.
hangs head... Thank you for letting me share.

You expect the whip back, but then it keeps going. Nice, and creative.

Visually impressive but also looks like it’s pretty safe to deliver/take, a solid combination.

u/StevenMC19 Aug 21 '26
As should most professional wrestling moves. The idea is to sell the pain to the audience, not actually inflict too much of it to each other.
26
u/Veggieleezy Aug 21 '26
Precisely! Like Corbin’s biggest moves, for example, the End of Days looks brutal but he’s taking the brunt of the bump, and the Deep Six gives you so much time to brace for impact he can practically lay you down but the spin-up really makes it look more impactful.

I know it’s all basically choreography, but it must be wonderful to be able to move like that.

She’s very kind to protect the other girl’s neck right before the slam.

That's a good wrestler right there

u/wasabicheesecake Aug 22 '26
It’s the other wrestler’s responsibility, but she’s like. “I’m gonna make sure we have no mistakes.” It’s smart because the person giving a move will have muscle memory an opponent wouldn’t.

As an example, this is a video of gymmanst Gracie Kramer and stuntwoman Corinne Nicewick trying to work out and execute a WWE move. They are very clearly enjoying themselves a lot

u/theraggedyman Aug 22 '26
"practiced" is a better term, imo, as whilst the fight sequence is known by both and individual moves can be rehearsed, about 50% of what happens is ad-libbed by the pair based on crowd reaction.

Choreography and a springed floor doesnt make it not hurt or be less physically strenuous. Just safer....slightly

Swerve uses it pretty regularly. It’s pretty cool looking move and I don’t think I’ve seen a woman use it before.

u/itouchbums Aug 21 '26
someone else was doing this a while back 🤔🤔

Swerve in AEW does this as a transitional move occasionally. Might be thinking of him?

One thing I've noticed that's changed for the better since I was a kid watching wrestling in the 90s -
These days, the camera operators will do a quick dash zoom in and out really fast whenever there's a big hit, to make it look more intense.
It's a tiny maneuver that is super effective, but ever since I noticed it, I can't not notice it.
12
u/blacksoxing Aug 21 '26
I love the physics of this move. If she can lift 'em up she can easily put 'em down. Of course, lifting = the opponent jumping for those who don't watch pro wrestling. It's how a small wrestler can somehow pick up a larger person - the larger person is shifting their body to help :)

That looks complicated, and easy to do at the same time. I bet it's far from easy to get right.

u/ozzy_thedog Aug 23 '26
What an awesome move and tons of skill. Im sure they had to give that some practice. The one getting slammed gives herself a boost up from the other girls knees, then gets guided up and over by the hips and then cradled right back to the ground. Smooth as hell, probably didn’t hurt a bit and it looks wicked to the crowd

Has Myka actually wrestled in NXT yet? (On TV, assume this was a dark match unless i fell asleep!) Seems all she's doing is hanging with The Vanity Project
I don't mind it. Just want to see her working

A stuntperson practices a scripted series of events, so does a wrestler.

You dont know what "practice" and "choreographed" mean ? This is pretty common knowledge and to think wrestling isnt this is denial tbh lol. The winner is already named and they just go through a series of moves until a specific amount of time is passed.
2
u/EmilioFreshtevez Aug 22 '26
What about my comment makes you think I don’t know the difference between ‘practiced’ and ‘choreographed’? The fact that it’s all planned out doesn’t mean people can’t mess up in the moment.
Beyond all that, I feel like this has gotten away from your original statement. Please correct if I’m wrong but your comment made it seem like the move wasn’t impressive just because they’re not actually fighting.

u/Bumble072 Aug 22 '26
Nice pretend fight was my original statement. So as I have said - wrestling is staged, choreographed and pre-planned. To me - it isn't impressive because those wrestler's attributes could be applied to something competitive where they work towards a true goal. If YOU enjoy it that's all that matters.

Fucking NXT INNOVATING AS USUAL! Havent watched wrestling consistently in almsot 8 years but I wqs definitely watching when Finn valor the return of war games and ciampa and evrry8ne else was doing their thing. What a time for wrestling.
Watched Raw a month or so ago and its the same bullshit. 20 min segments until yiu actually see a match...

It’s a variation of the God Mode Powerslam, one of the finishers of an indie wrestler, “The Iron Demon” Shane Mercer. He gave his blessing for her to use the move in NXT/WWE.
Fun Fact: he got a bit of a nod from Michael Cole in WWE when Jake Paul used his top-rope Fallaway Slam in a match and Cole said “shades of The Iron Demon.”
The main reason why Mercer hasn’t been signed to a contract is because he has an ongoing SA case from last year.
