The Godfather Wrestler
Wrestling facts:
The Godfather's Finishing and signature moves:
Pimp Drop (Death Valley driver)
Often abbreviated to D.V.D. Known as Death Valley Bomb in Japan. This is a move in which a brainbuster-type slam is performed from a fireman's carry. The wrestler falls in the direction that the opponent's head is facing, driving the opponent's head into the mat.
Louie Spicolli used the move as a finisher during his tenure in Extrme Championship Wrestling. Upon his death the move was unofficially renamed the Spicolli Driver by announcer Joey Styles, who would call the move by this name when any wrestler performed it in ECW.
Sean O'Haire uses a varation in which he throws out his opponent on the opposite side. He called this the Widow Maker, and later The Prophecy.
Ho Train (corner body avalanche)
Body avalanche
The attacker charges into a victim in the corner of the ring without leaving their feet, crushing them into the turnbuckle. This is normally used by bigger, heavier wrestlers.
Jumping legdrop
An attacking wrestler will jump and land his leg across a fallen opponent's chest, throat or face.
Corner slingshot splash
The attacker places the victim so they are lying supine and with their head and feet facing opposite corners of the ring. The attacker then approaches an adjacent turnbuckle, places their hands on the top rope and climbs to the first or second rope. The attacker then bounces on the ropes before throwing their legs and body outwards and releasing the ropes, thus flying outwards and downwards and connecting with the torso of the victim.
