Wrestling double-team maneuvers

The double-team maneuvers in [wrestling are executed by two wrestlers instead of one and typically are used by tag teams in tag team matches. Many of these maneuvers are combination of two throws, or submission holds. There is a wide variety of double-team moves in pro wrestling. Most moves are known by the names that professional wrestlers give their "finishing move" (signature moves that usually result in a win) names. Occasionally, these names become popular and are used regardless of the wrestler performing the technique.

Moves are listed under general categories whenever possible.

Aided brainbuster
An aided brainbuster sees one wrestler help another wrestler perform a brainbuster, usually by putting their own weight behind the move to increase its impact. Davey Richards and Super Dragon perform a variation of the aided brainbuster named the Spike D.R. Driver in which Richards positions the opponent for a double underhook brainbuster and Dragon, standing on the second turnbuckle, comes off and catches the opponent's feet to push them down while Richards falls back to connect with the maneuver.

This wrestler has the opponent's legs on his or her shoulders and is facing the first wrestler. When the neckbreaker is performed, the extra wrestler will often twist himself or herself down to the mat and land on top of the opponent. This is perhaps best known as the Au Revoir, a double team move used by Rob Conway and Sylvan Grenier of La Résistance, or as the Tornado-Plex when utilized by TNA's AJ Styles and Tomko.

Argentine rack, neckbreaker combination
This move first sees one wrestler place an opponent in an Argentine backbreaker rack where the opponent is held face-up across both the shoulders of the attacking wrestler. At this point, the second attacking wrestler then grabs the racked opponent's head and, along with the first wrestler, falls to the ground supposedly driving the opponent's head and neck into the mat below. Another variation is when the attacking wrestler falls backwards and the partner then does a cutter on the opponent as he falls face first into the mat.

This can see the wrestler performing the fireman's carry turn on the spot (an airplane spin) while the other charges at him or her and performs the neckbreaker as he or she spins. Another variation is when someone holds the opponent in a fireman's carry position. His partner then gives the opponent a side headlock and together at the same time, they do a double rolling somersault into a combination of the Rolling fireman's carry slam and the Corkscrew neckbreaker.

The first wrestler keeps hold of the opponent's head at this point, holding it against their shoulder as with a hangman's neckbreaker while keeping the opponent's back and head parallel with the ground. From here the first wrestler falls to a sitting position while the other wrestler who is holding the opponent in the powerbomb position drops to their knees, thus driving the neck of the opponent into the shoulder of this wrestler from an elevated position.

A notable name used in reference to this move is the Villano Breaker, which is named after Villano IV, who was severely injured by a botched version of this move by Kanyon and Raven.

Other variations can see the wrestler get placed in the powerbomb position without the aid of a suplex lift. One such version sees the attacking wrestler skylift an opponent (throw him or her into the air) before catching him or her in the powerbomb neckbreaker as they fall to the mat. The move can be performed using the other powerbomb variations, the Briscoe Brothers perform a crucifix powerbomb variation in which Mark Briscoe lifts the opponent into a crucifix powerbomb while Jay Briscoe runs and jumps to catch the head of the opponent in a neckbreaker as they are thrown by Mark.

Russian legsweep, neckbreaker combination

Neidhart would lift up the opponent in a bearhug in the center of the ring, while Hart leaned against the ringside ropes, facing the opponent's back. Hart would then run past the two and bounce off the ropes on the opposite side of the ring. On his return, Hart would make a running leap and perform a lariat takedown on the opponent as Neidhart let go of him, resulting in both Hart and the opponent falling onto their backs. Hart sometimes did the lariat takedown from the second corner rope. Strangely, this move was never referred to by name on TV.

The name Hart Attack comes from a WWF trading card of that era.

Con-chair-to
This move was popularized and named by the team of Edge and Christian, and consists of a double steel folding chair shot to the head of an opponent, one from either side hitting the back of the head and the face of an opponent simultaneously.

There is also a one man version of the move known as a one man con-chair-to where the opponent's head is lying on a chair on the mat and the attacker slams another chair on their head. The name of the move is derived from the musical term "concerto". Since their split, Edge and Christian have both used the one-man version frequently as heels, which also carried onto Randy Orton for the time he spent as Edge's partner in Rated-RKO.

Doomsday Device

However, due to the face lock the opponent's face often never reaches the mat, instead lands on the shoulders of the attacking wrestlers. Rated-RKO used a variation known as the Double RKO, where both wrestlers performed a jumping cutter on a single opponent. The Jersey Triad (Diamond Dallas Page, Bam Bam Bigelow & Kanyon) also used a version where Bigelow held the opponent stomach-first over his shoulder & then fall forwards as DDP applied the cutter.

Double chokeslam

Double dropkick
When two wrestlers simultaneously hit a dropkick on a single opponent. Attacking wrestlers may both target the front or back of the opponent, or sometimes "sandwich" the opponent by dropkicking them from either side.

Double missile dropkick
Similar to the double dropkick, both wrestlers execute missile dropkicks from adjacent turnbuckles onto a single opponent. Timing is of the utmost importance when executing this move; at the 2003 Royal Rumble, Rey Mysterio and Edge attempted this move on Christopher Nowinski. Mysterio jumped too early, and Edge landed on the face of a supine Nowinski, which eventually resulted in Nowinski suffering a career-ending concussion.

Double flapjack
Two wrestlers throw a single opponent up into a flapjack. In this move both wrestlers would push the opponent upward by reaching under their legs and lifting them into the air, while remaining the hold on the opponent’s legs the wrestlers would fall backwards, dropping the opponent front-first into the canvas. Another basic double flapjack is similar to a back drop, in which the wrestlers push the opponent upwards and release him/her so that they fall onto their face instead of falling back-first.

Double hip toss
When two wrestlers both hit a hip toss on a single opponent by both wrestlers underhooking the closest arm and then quickly lifting the opponent up and throwing him/her forward, flipping the opponent onto his/her back.

Obviously many variations exist in which most commonly one wrestler will work on the lower body/legs with moves like the Sharpshooter, the Texas cloverleaf and the reverse figure four, while the other wrestler works on the upper half/head with moves like the camel clutch.

Double superkick
A tandem attack where two wrestlers stand in front of an opponent and hit him/her in the face/head with a high, side thrust kick, known as a Superkick.

The name can also refer to what is known as Stereo Superkicks when two wrestlers both perform superkicks to two different opponents at the same time.

Adams and Savannah Jack also used the double superkick in the UWF; with Savannah Jack using the thrust kick with his left foot, and Adams with his right foot.

The double superkick has been called X-Mark and W-Superkick.

Double suplex
A throw in which two wrestlers will both suplex one opponent at the same time is called double suplex. The most common suplexs used for this double team move are the Snap and Vertical variations, in which the wrestlers apply a front face lock to the opponent, draping the opponent’s near arm over their respective shoulders, at this point the wrestlers will either pull their own legs back and kick them forward quickly slamming them to the ground to build momentum to fall backwards and flip the opponent over them so they all land on their backs for a double snap suplex. In a double vertical suplex the move is the same except that when the opponent is in position he/she is lifted up and held upside-down before the wrestlers fall backwards.

A double suplex can also refer to two suplexes being performed by one wrestler on two opponents at the same time, although this move is much rarer and typically requires a larger wrestler to suplex two smaller wrestlers often as a counter to a standard double suplex.

Double belly to back suplex
The attackers stand behind the opponent on either side of him and put their heads under his arms. They then lift the opponent up using their arms wrapped around his torso. The attackers finally fall backwards and drop the opponent flat on his back or, occasionally (and as often done by Rhythm & Blues), on the back of his head.

Double inverted suplex

This is an aided version of the one-man elevated DDT.

Belly to back suplex, inverted DDT combination
This elevated DDT, is a combination of backdrop and an inverted DDT. This maneuver sees an opponent get pushed upwards in a belly to back suplex lift by one attacking wrestler then as the opponent falls to the mat the second attacking wrestler would apply the inverted headlock forcing the opponent's head into the mat.

Flapjack DDT
One of the most common double team elevated DDT is known as a Flapjack DDT, a combination of Flapjack and a DDT. This maneuver sees an opponent get pushed upwards in air during a flapjack attempted then just as the opponent falls to the mat the wrestlers partner will put opponent in a front facelock and as all three fall down to the mat the DDT will ensure the opponent is forced to dive forward onto his own head. MNM used this move efficiently in matches calling it The Snapshot often finishing matches with it. Simon Diamond & Johnny Swinger used when they wrestled for ECW & calling it "The Problem Solver".

Sidewalk slam, headlock takedown
This move involves one wrestler setting up an opponent for a sidewalk slam will the opponent is held in the air his head is exposed at this point another wrestler will be able to perform many moves that only involve the attack of that exposed head (i.e. reverse DDT variations, headlock takedowns, and neckbreakers) these moves force the opponent down harder to the mat when the first wrestler drops him/her.

A variation used by the team of Edge & Christian, saw Christian hit his signature falling reverse DDT on an opponent that Edge held in the sidewalk slam. Another variation used by the team of The Hurricane and Rosey, saw The Hurricane hit his Eye of the Hurricane finisher on an opponent that Rosey held in the sidewalk slam.

Elevated jawbreaker
With an opponent kept up in an elevated position by one wrestler, another wrestler has chance to drop the opponent into any type of jawbreaker from a raised height. Most notably this sees the opponent's legs being held on the shoulders of one wrestler while another wrestler catches hold of the head of this opponent. At this point the wrestler will lock a hold onto the head of the opponent and drop them into the jawbreaker.

One known as the Natural Disaster, as named by The Naturals (Chase Stevens and Andy Douglas), sees one wrestler use an inverted suplex to raise their opponent off the ground and onto the shoulders of their partner behind them. Both wrestlers then drop to a kneeling/sitting position, so that the wrestler at the front can hit the stunner style jawbreaker.

Elevated splash
This is where one wrestler (usually a larger wrestler) backs up to the corner turnbuckles and allows another wrestler to climb the turnbuckle then up onto his/her shoulders, this wrestler then jumps off to perform any type of diving splash (i.e. Shooting star press) on a supine opponent. Sometimes this move sees the first wrestler climb up on the turnbuckle himself getting even higher before the second wrestler gets up there and jumps off him.

High and Low
A "high and low" double team maneuver is a type of takedown that sees two wrestlers hit a combination of attacks on a standing opponent; one aimed to hit high, while the other is aimed low. The high attack usually comes from in front of the opponent, while the low attack comes from behind, sending the opponent back-first into the mat with greater force.

Lariat, running chop block combination

Leapfrog body guillotine
Also called a Leapfrog Stun Gun, this move, best known as a signature move of The World's Greatest Tag Team, sees an opponent rest with his upper body on the ropes and his feet on one of the attacking wrestler's shoulders while the other wrestler charges at his partner, leapfroging over him/her and straddling the opponent's lower back.

Leg drop, splash combination
This type of combination sees two wrestlers simultaneously execute any type of splash and leg drop on one prone opponent lying on the mat. However, the double team move is not limited to grounded variations of splashes and leg drops many wrestlers utilize aerial versions, or versions where one of the two attacks come from an elevated position.

The most common all elevated version of this, known as the Event Omega, popularized by the Hardy Boyz, sees the opponent lying prone on the mat while both wrestlers climb on opposite turnbuckles or occasionally ladders, and come down simultaneously with a diving leg drop and a diving splash. While alternatively, another version, known as Chris Chetti and Nova's "Tidal Wave", sees both wrestlers climb the same turnbuckle before hitting the move.

Poetry in Motion
This move, innovated, named and popularized by the Hardy Boyz, sees one wrestler either place his opponent or Irish whip his opponent into the turnbuckle. The same wrestler then gets down on all fours and their partner runs from the opposite side of the ring/opposite turnbuckle, leap off his partner's back, and perform an aided splash/calf kick/heel kick/leg lariat/dropkick or in some rare instances, a leg drop on the opponent. A one man version sees the use of a chair (or chairs), instead of the partner, and perform the attack. If the move is done with a chair in hand, it is usually a dropkick version, with the attacker driving the chair into his opponent. Rob Van Dam and Sabu also use this maneuver, calling it Air Sabu, although it only comes in the calf kick/heel kick/leg lariat variants. Edge and Christian used a running splash/vertical crossbody variation in their matches with the Hardy Boyz to mock them, a variation of this move was also used by CIMA and Naruki Doi where CIMA performed a Bronco Buster and Naruki finished it with a Low Dropkick
