Now that&rsquo;s a non-canon arc I&rsquo;d be interested in seeing!

You know it&rsquo;s a great move when it&rsquo;s utilized in the opening as well. Mah Miseon utilizes pro-wrestling as her martial art in the confines of the tournament, which is the best. Perhaps my favorite bit about her character is when she goes up against Yoo Mira and tells Mira that using a weapon on her would be ineffective because she&rsquo;s used to being hit by those kinds of items thanks to being a pro-wrestler and&nbsp;taking bumps regularly. That&rsquo;s just brilliant! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\">Mah Miseon&rsquo;s version of the stunner is exactly what you&rsquo;d picture&nbsp;if you ever saw <\/span><strong><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/superstars\/stone-cold-steve-austin\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\">Stone Cold Steve Austin<\/span><\/a><\/strong><span style=\"color:black\"> do the move. She sets it up with a kick to the gut and&nbsp;grabs her opponent&#039;s head and sits down, jamming their jaw into her shoulder. It was effective enough to help her move onto the preliminaries, but maybe she should&rsquo;ve pulled it off in her fight with Yoo Mira. Who knows, maybe that could&rsquo;ve been the path to victory instead of defeat.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Love_Live_Sunshine_%E2%80%93_Crossface_Chicken_Wing\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"font-size:20px\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/love-live-sunshine?utm_source=editorial_cr&amp;utm_medium=news&amp;utm_campaign=article_driven&amp;referrer=editorial_cr_news_article_driven\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\"><i><span>Love Live!

What makes this utilization in <i><strong>Love Live! Sunshine!!<\/strong> <\/i>humorous is there really isn&rsquo;t any other indication that pro-wrestling exists in this universe. This makes me want to see a school idol group that acts like pro-wrestlers, or does pro-wrestling on the side, similarly to the idol wrestlers in <\/span><strong><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/tiger-mask-w\/episode-6-idol-vs-heel-721147?utm_source=editorial_cr&amp;utm_medium=news&amp;utm_campaign=article_driven&amp;referrer=editorial_cr_news_article_driven\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\"><i>Tiger Mask W<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/strong><span style=\"color:black\">.

In the midst of the Chunin Exams, Sasuke is able to grab a disguised Orochimaru, flip in midair, and then hit a devastating piledriver. Given that the episode this was featured in aired in 2003, this was just about when Petey Williams was beginning to popularize his front-flip piledriver known as a Canadian Destroyer. It&rsquo;s certainly not like nowadays where it&rsquo;s become a much more common move in pro-wrestling, so seeing it this early in <i><strong>Naruto<\/strong> <\/i>is a bit shocking. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\">Now, some people might say&nbsp;this is supposed to be just a regular piledriver, but Sasuke clearly is able to turn Orochimaru&rsquo;s body 180 degrees to land in a piledriver position, so it totally counts. There was probably some old-timer ninja that got in a huff about Sasuke using it, but he shouldn&rsquo;t listen to them. I still find it wildly entertaining that in the midst of this big fight early in <strong><i>Naruto<\/i><\/strong>, one of Sasuke&rsquo;s key moves is a piledriver. Given the danger associated with that move, it&rsquo;s smart since he&rsquo;s able to smash Orochimaru&rsquo;s head from&nbsp;quite a big drop. That should be an incredibly devastating maneuver. Too bad&nbsp;Orochimaru is a slithery one and won&rsquo;t be put down that easily.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Re_ZERO_-Starting_Life_in_Another_World-_%E2%80%93_Dragon_Suplex\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/rezero-starting-life-in-another-world-?utm_source=editorial_cr&amp;utm_medium=news&amp;utm_campaign=article_driven&amp;referrer=editorial_cr_news_article_driven\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\"><i><span>Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/a><span><span style=\"color:black\">&nbsp;&#8211; <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/rezero-starting-life-in-another-world-\/episode-28-the-long-awaited-reunion-796206?utm_source=editorial_cr&amp;utm_medium=news&amp;utm_campaign=article_driven&amp;referrer=editorial_cr_news_article_driven\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\"><s>Dragon<\/s> Suplex<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-\" src=\"https:\/\/img1.ak.crunchyroll.com\/i\/spire4\/daf5c472a61cd49ad0acbcd24b96cd461600204225_main.png\" style=\"width: 640px;height: 360px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\">Hey, wait a minute.

So, while this is just a regular suplex, it&rsquo;s still pretty impressive, and maybe one day we&rsquo;ll get to see an actual dragon take a dragon suplex.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ahiru_no_Sora_%E2%80%93_Shining_Wizard\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/ahiru-no-sora?utm_source=editorial_cr&amp;utm_medium=news&amp;utm_campaign=article_driven&amp;referrer=editorial_cr_news_article_driven\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\"><i><span>Ahiru no Sora<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/a><span><span style=\"color:black\"> &#8211; <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/ahiru-no-sora\/episode-1-the-ugly-duckling-789374?utm_source=editorial_cr&amp;utm_medium=news&amp;utm_campaign=article_driven&amp;referrer=editorial_cr_news_article_driven\"><span style=\"color:#f39c12\">Shining Wizard<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Ahiru no Sora\" src=\"https:\/\/img1.ak.crunchyroll.com\/i\/spire1\/61fe4e5d530a7f680c00e75523d934c31599792630_main.png\" style=\"width: 640px;height: 360px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\">Guys in a sports club performing pro-wrestling moves on each other just makes the most sense, especially when you have a group of dudes like the basketball club in <strong><i>Ahiru no Sora<\/i><\/strong>.

Everyone that sees it gets really excited when Chiaki pulls it off as well, and he does so quite effectively. Since we see later on that those two would constantly get into fights growing up, this means&nbsp;the two of them throwing out pro-wrestling moves at one another is probably a common occurrence.

That poor thief didn&rsquo;t know what was about to happen when he got put into an Argentine Backbreaker Rack &mdash;&nbsp;otherwise known as the Torture Rack &mdash; to, well, torture the thief. It&rsquo;s kind of surprising there&rsquo;s not more random pro-wrestling moves in <strong><i>JoJo<\/i><\/strong> given the ridiculous nature of the series and that fact that everyone looks like pro-wrestlers from the 1980s. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\">In the world of <strong><i>JoJo<\/i><\/strong> though, this move looks absolutely devastating because it looks like Rubber Soul is about to snap this thief&rsquo;s spine in two just by the amount of torque and pressure he&rsquo;s putting on his body. That&rsquo;s probably what would&rsquo;ve happened if it weren&rsquo;t for Jotaro coming over to be like, &ldquo;Hey dude what are you doing?!&rdquo; Since this is the episode where this imposter Kakyoin does some very weird stuff, it&rsquo;s safe to say that pro-wrestling is responsible for the famous meme of Kakyoin getting very into licking a cherry.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\">This is but a small sample size of various instances where an anime has thrown in some pro-wrestling to shake things up, and I&rsquo;m sure this will be by no means the last time it happens. As long as pro-wrestling remains popular in Japan and around the world, you&rsquo;re certain to see at least one of your favorite characters pull off some wild and ridiculous wrestling move. The more that happens, the happier I&rsquo;ll be, so let&rsquo;s hope we get to see more pro-wrestling integrated into anime in each upcoming season.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span><span style=\"color:black\"><strong>What are some other instances of pro-wrestling in anime that you believe deserve a shout out?
