Idk if this counts bc I only saw it once, but Kaleb Larkin's Russian-to-cross-trip, i.e. the thing he did against Robideau.

 

Larkin hits that frequently.

Yeah- whenever I think signature move, Fleming and the snapper is the first thing that comes to my mind

Was sitting by some UNC fans during a Chip Ness match once and the one kept yelling in his southern drawl "Yeaaaaaa Chip - give'em the ripper"

 

Not sure what it is but Chip Ness's Ripper is apparently his signature move

I'd like to point out that Zain Retherford and Alec Pantaleo had a B1G reunion this weekend in Poland, and Zain broke out the ol' Bow and Arrow for him.

I bet you would.

John Smith - Low Single leg takedown 7 hi low to the mat wrestling style.

Randy Lewis - The Impossible Leg. Go for it & find yourself flat on the mat.

Dan Gable - Arm Bar punishment. He would work one arm until it was almost useless, then switch to the other one and do the same. Then turn you for the pin.

Cael Sanderson - Ankle pick.

Might be true, idk.

In 96, my dad got us tickets for one of the opening rounds in Atlanta. I was super excited bc I would get to see the crazy looking guy from the poster in person.

My dad was a huge OSU fan and went to all the home duals, but didnt know much about the wrestling world at large. And, even he got excited when I started telling him how scary this guy was.

When Karelin walked out, he looked the part even if he was a little less roidy than I had hoped. Then, the match began. Or, at least, I thought so bc the ref blew the whistle. Tbh not much happened. Karelin leaned on the guy. The guy leaned on him. At some point, the other dude's in par terre ... and I thought, "This is it! Karelin is gonna snatch him up and crush his spine!" Nope. After a couple of failed reverse lifts, the ref stands them back up, and they're leaning on each other again. 

Same thing in the next match, except there might have been a three-pointer

Kinda disappointing. I guess I didnt understand what I was watching.
