Wrestling Scholar Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 (edited) Looked like things are a little slow, so I thought I would pose a wrestling question? Does Indiana have a signature move that it does well and is known for and does better than the other places? Or maybe it could be in different in each part of the state, does the Region, Evansville or Fort Wayne have a move that's emphasized more than others? Of course its subjective and no wrong answers. I used to live in Ohio, and they loved the "Slide by" . What do we love in Indiana? Maybe even list what you're teams signature move.

busstogate Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I think there is a lot of half and a wrist action happening from the northeast to the Region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TShipleyViking Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Half Nelson, every team i have ever practiced with has always taught it and preached it like it was the best move on top to win with. don't quote me on this but i think a majority of pins at state are half nelsons. the double chicken wing is the most killer though! busstogate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busstogate Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 The Merkle, or side headlock from top (and sometimes neutral) was pretty hot about five years ago, but that mainly came out of Illinois.

Jon H Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Many of the youngsters I coached were known for the - bridge and turn! This usually happened right after I said - "don't reach back". Ds Dad and bgcoach 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teammills Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Double Title Tidal Lock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-bRTZye9ys Who said smart people don't wrestle! What a great find, although it does tend to publicize who the nerds are on the board! It's awesome to see one of the countries brightest scientists correlating astrophysics to wrestling! I had no idea he was a wrestler until doing a little more research on this and found out he was the HS captain of his team and wrestled at Harvard. I always thought highly of Neil, but now I'm sold! #DoubleTidalLock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
