Forgotten Moves

[Knowledged_one]

Does anyone remember when wrestlers did moves like the inverted atomic drop or the notorious Abdominal Stretch and even the basic body slam or vertical suplex what has happened to the wrestling moves of yore?

<p>They moved away from moves where you have to touch another man's crotch every time you pick him up.</p><p>Scoop slam?&nbsp; More like sexual harassment.</p>

i liked the inverted STF. or the surfboard. funny i watched RAW the other night, 2 of those moves i saw, the body slam and vertical suplex. first was done by hogan, second was done by flair. guess newer guys figure those moves aren't visually stimulating to the fans. i&nbsp;havent seen a sleeper hold in years.

The Undertaker used the heart punch in WCW as Mean Mark Calloway and someone else used it in the WWF shortly thereafter

havent seen the Sharpshooter(scorpion death lock) since the days of Sting and Bret Hart.&nbsp; Steve Austin use to do it back when he was first introduced as the new Bret Hart and a skilled wrestler, but yea since that match against Hart at his first PPV he hasnt done it i dont believe.

Always a favorite move of WWF jobbers from the mid/late 80s.

<p>I think the bear-hug has officially been retired.</p><p>Also,&nbsp;anyone notice the announcers don't&nbsp;call it&nbsp;the&nbsp;small package anymore, it's usually&nbsp;referred to as&nbsp;a roll-up. </p>

I think chain wrestling is really great.&nbsp; The back and forth
action actually pumps up the crowd.&nbsp; I think the ECW guys did it
the best with Jerry Lynn/RVD matches and Super Crazy/Tajiri.&nbsp; You
never really see stuff like that anymore, although Angle/Benoit at
WrestleMania 17 or 18 did an amazing job.&nbsp; Recently Angle/Flair
put on a wrestling clinic in their match on RAW.&nbsp; You just don't
see good stuff like that anymore with actual wrestling.<br />
