10 Insane Wrestling Moves AJ Styles Doesn't Do Anymore

5. Quebrada DDT

In their legendary Halloween Havoc 1997 match, Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero pulled off one of the most beautiful moves in wrestling history - Mysterio did a springboard backflip off the ropes, landed with his arm around Guerrero's head, then planted him with a reverse DDT. Many observers called it a once-in-a-lifetime maneuver.

Shockingly, AJ Styles wasn't just able to duplicate the move - he added it to his regular arsenal! Alternatively called the "Stylin' DDT" and the "Phenomenon," it became one of the staples of Styles's matches.

Yes, AJ Styles hasn't stopped doing this move entirely - in fact, he's been using it more lately. For several months, though, he seemed to have put the spectacular maneuver in mothballs, so let's hope it doesn't go away again.
