This document is a compilation of detailed descriptions of the various maneuvers used in professional-style KCW wrestling.

TAG TEAM MOVES

 

Instead of giving a complete description of every tag team move, I opted to give a brief summery of the type of moves. You can look up the individual moves somewhere on the rest of this list.

 

Double Attacks: These are the same move done by the tag team onto an opponent.

Combo Moves: These are two different moves performed on an opponent at the same time by the tag team.

Spiked Moves: These are moves are done normally, except the tag team partner adds his strength/weight to the move in some way.

Sandwich Moves: These are Double moves except they are done to the front and back of the opponent simultaneously.

Drop Moves: This involves one partner lifting the other partner into the air and then dropping them on the opponent.

The attacker then drops down driving the victim's head into the mat. It can be noted that the turn around is very similar to the set up to a face to face backslide.
