10 Wrestling Spots Nobody Does Anymore
6. That Throat Slingshot
Dolph Ziggler matches are immediately docked a quarter star by Dave Meltzer if he doesn't do that slingshot bump into the corner and rag doll his body around. Only kidding. Seriously though, Dolph's tribute to Shawn Michaels is the only time you're likely to see the modest slingshot.
The 'Throat Slingshot' (again, not a definitive name) has all-but-disappeared.
It used to be a stalwart of heel behaviour; Bret Hart matches weren't Bret Hart matches if he didn't take a bottom rope to the throat, cave his chest in on the turnbuckle or try to lock on his trademark Sharpshooter. The latter two spots/moves are still in use. The throat-destroying rope performance isn't.
Lord knows why heels aren't allowed to kill vocal cords these days. It might still happen somewhere in the wrestling world, but you're unlikely to see the 'Throat Slingshot' on a weekly basis. It needs to make the big comeback.
