Now here comes a list of lucha libre moves:
- Plancha:
- [iron board] A move where you splash your opponent, eg. a
flying cross bodypress, an ordinary splash etc.
- Tope:
- Headbutt, about every move where you use your head to hurt
the opponent.
- Suicida:
- This ajective is usually used for move that you perform to
the outside of the ring. Like a tope suicida, the luchador nails
his a opponent as he flies through the second and third rope
into his opponent who is on the outside of the ring, head first.
- Tornillo:
- [screw] Move "invented" by Hector Garza, a plancha with a
full twist around his axis from the top turnbuckle to the
outside of the ring.
- Rana:
- [frog] A pinning position in which you hold the opponents
shoulders on the mat using your legs, and blocking his legs with
your arms (sounds complicated, but it's something like the
ending position of a sunset flip, or a victory roll).
- Hurac�n rana:
- Move invented by Huracan Ramirez and made popular by Rey
Misterio Jr. (in the States). It's the pin position you get in
after a headscissor takedown (getting into a rana in Huracan's
way). A flying headscissor that doesn't end in a "rana"-pin, is
not a Hurac�n rana, but a victory roll for instance is.
- Cent�n:
- [blanket] Splashing your opponent with your back, eg Steve
Regal's "Royal Roll" is technically a somersault cent�n, and
Psicosis uses the Flying Cent�n as his finishing move (TNM calls
it a senton).
- Guillotina:
- Leg drop, no more, no less.
- Espanos Planes:
- [flat on his back] A pin position that is not a rana (I
can't make more of it).
- Jaula:
- Cage.
- Parejas Incre�bles:
- Incredible pairings, heels teaming up with faces.
