XPac Finishing Moves

X-Factor / Syxx-Factor (Sit out facebuster) Also known as a sit-down facebuster. Is the most common variation of the standard facebuster in which the attacker grabs hold of the opponent by his/her head or hair then jumps down into a sitting position, forcing the opponent's face into the mat between the attacker's legs. It was most famously used as a finisher by X-Pac, who called it the X Factor. The X Factor became a common name for the move with wrestlers often imitating the name; for example Konnan, who called it the K Factor (he later renamed the move Facejam). WWE Diva Torrie Wilson would use the version of the move where she grabs the opponent by the hair. She called this the Nosejob. Bronco buster This is a seated senton to an opponent who is resting on the bottom turnbuckle, popularized by X-Pac and Goldust. Goldust added pelvic thrusts to his version of the bronco buster. The bronco buster is normally treated as having comic or sexual connotations rather than as a legitimately painful move. Buzz Killer (Chickenwing hold) The wrestler stands behind the opponent, hooks one of his arms, and pulls it upwards. Spinning heel-kick Occasionally referred to as a Spinning Wheel Kick or Kneel Kick this usually involves the attacker spinning as they jump so that his body is somewhat horizontal, before hitting their opponent with back of his leg(s) or heel(s) on the face, neck or chest. Round House Kick n Japanese, "mawashi geri." In Korean, "Dollyo Chagi" Also called a round kick or turning kick. The attacker swings his/her leg up in a circular motion. Also performable is a 360 degree in which the attacker performs a full circle with his/her leg. The striking surface is generally either the instep, shin or ball of foot. Flying clothesline While running towards an opponent (usually after bouncing off the ropes), an attacking wrestler would leap up into the air, before connecting with a clothesline. Backhand chop The act of a wrestler to 'slap' the chest of his opponent, using the back of his hand. Moonsault In a standard moonsault, which is generally attempted from the top rope, a wrestler faces away from the prone opponent and executes a backflip landing on the victim in a splash/press position but facing towards the elevated position. Though this move is generally attempted from the top rope to an opponent laying face up in the mat, myriad variations exist, including moonsaults that see the attack land on a standing opponent and forcing them down to the mat. In kayfabe, the move is considered a higher-impact version of a splash, since the attacker utilizes rotational speed. XPac Finishingand Signature Moves |
