The arm moves in wrestling include the arm breakers, arm drags, over the shoulder arm drags, arm swings, etc. The arm bar take down is another of the moves in wrestling. The arm bar attacks by forcing the arm of the opponent downward.
The challenger feels the strain about the shoulder area and the assailant will grip the arms extending the arms length wise. The shoulder is eventually dropped to the mat. This is a pin in most instances unless the wrestler can wriggle his/her way out of the hold.
The arm breakers include slamming of the arms, typically on an area of the opponent’s body where it will hurt. Usually the pin ends with the scissors, where the wrestler’s legs are crossed over the challengers body, holding his/her shoulders down to the mat.
The various moves look painful in the ring, but the fact is that the moves are fakes, i.e. a showy display to grab attention. The actors rehearse the scenes long before they step into the ring and are trained to send ’signs’ to end the bout when they want to.
The wrestling manoeuvres seem real on television, because the cameras and other distractions, including beautiful models, divert the attention of the audience. Wrestling is really quite similar to how magicians work. Magicians rehearse their stage act before they go on the stage. There is always a gimmick or an explanation, yet the magician does his act so professionally and the audience is so distracted, that the magician fools people into believing that he or she is performing the illusion for real.
The ‘arm drags’ involve the assailant getting the opponent in a hook move and then flipping the challenger down onto the mats. Most of the moves are devised by one or the other of the wrestlers and sometimes it may become a popular move and so taken up by others. Two of the older moves are the Gallatin and the Banana Split
The ‘over the shoulder’ move ought to be called the ‘body slam’ since the opponent throws the challenger over his shoulder, slamming him/her down onto the mat. Previously, this wrestling manoeuvre was probably in the group of ’slammers’, but today it is called the shoulder-arm throw manoeuvre.
The ‘wringer; is another of the arm moves in wrestling that is sometimes called the ’spin wrist lock hold’. This manoeuvre is often followed up by the Irish Thrash moves, mallet locks or gouges.
Some other arm moves include the arm stretches, arm breakers, arm wringer, arm locks, arm bar and arm scissors. While the arm moves are very well-known in the ring, there are many moves you may see today that you would never have seen when wrestling first began in ancient days. The Amityville Horror is one of wrestling’s more modern moves. Although, I haven’t worked out what this move is all about, we are about to analyse it together.
From what I can make out the Amityville Horror is just a way to persuade people to rent or buy the film with the same name. The move is listed in the roll of wrestling moves, however, so far, no information is available about what this move entails. Moves are basically marques made up by the wrestlers themselves, so I’m assuming that the wrestler felt he had devised one of the most horrific moves in wrestling and so he called it the Amityville Horror.
Why is it that some moves get loud cheers? Well, it can start when a wrestler in the ring brings in a new manoeuvre and it becomes his trademark, popular final manoeuvre in his fights.
