A suplex is a wrestling move where one wrestler lifts their opponent off the ground and then throws them backward, causing the opponent to land on their back. This technique is commonly used in professional wrestling and mixed martial arts, showcasing strength and skill. The move can vary in style, including variations like the German suplex or belly-to-belly suplex. The suplex is not only a display of athleticism but also a strategic maneuver in matches. It can be used to gain an advantage over an opponent, potentially leading to a pinfall or submission. Wrestlers like Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar are known for their effective use of suplexes in their fighting styles.
