Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School The Ice Pick

I was at a tournament a few weekends ago and heard some coaches yelling to their wrestlers to use the Ice Pick. What is this move?

It is a shrug.

That is really a funny post in a way. I used to go to clinics or talk to coaches in Iowa and never had a clue what they were talking about when discussing moves until I saw what they were doing, conversely when I went to Oklahoma State it was like we were speaking the same language because everyone in Western Kansas at that time was so heavily influenced by coaches from there. It just depends on where you are and who you are taught by and it sure can sound like a foreign language when you are an outworlder.

Pennywise#2, that was actually just Brad Johnson yelling out more nonsense moves. Other favorites of his include:

The Bushwhacker
The MonkeyMaker and
The DoubleBubble

Hey Prant--
Don't forget:

The Slap-Happy
The Miami Vice Grip
The Boba-fet

Has anyone ever heard of any of the following?
The Badger Claw
The German Crossface
The Superman

I've heard of the superman because i'm really clark kent and superman is a good friend of mine.

The hanging series
butt pliers
space man
the california "shocker"--illegal in all 50 states

Oh yes, the badger claw, that one is hardcore. Another favorite of mine is the "mexican pinwheel."

Prant don''t forget the moves named especially for you

count the lights
look like a dead dog
and Check the oil

the little Phitz is the best move.

I thought the "Ice Pick" was a move originated by the Cosa Nostra Grapplers of the now defunct New Jersey Wrestling Alliance?

Also, I'm surprised that no-one mentioned the most feared hold of all time.....the dreaded Texas Teabag. Not only illegal in the entire Western Hemisphere with the exception of the SWPSC (Southwestern Penal System Conference) but in Russia, Iran, Thailand, and Hong Kong.

I am also remembering a move which was explained by Peremy_Jarker, which was entitled "The Jitterbug Juniper." I have never seen this move, but I assume it's spectacular.

I thought the ice pick was what you use to get wrestlers off the the mats in Wichita after a match at state.

I believe the Texas Teabag was originally developed in Mexico. After the Spanish American war Texas took credit for it.

The Butt Surf
Monkey Swing
The Bag Stretcher
The Glass Boat
Flying Smut Wrench
The Two Legged Stork
The Bacon Straightener

There are some more that coach Bammes taught me. The Manhatten guys think they don't exist.
The Elephant Cradle
The Peek-a-boo
Hooker Foot ( I think he learned that one in Bangcock)
The 3 Quarter Reverse Nelson (Only legal in 3 states)
The Underground Double Leg( vertually unstoppable)
The Wisconsin Duckover (so far Mike is the only one to successfully complete this move. His younger brother Shawn has attempted it on several occasions, so far without success)
My all time favorite: The Mexican Bootleg

All good moves, but nothing compared to the "Terrible Texas Two-Timing Beer-Battered Bong Blast," which was developed by the Mayan Indians as a defense against the Spanish invaders. It's really quite impressive to watch.

the oil check should definately go down in the books as the best move of all time

Some more greats are:
The Bongo
and The Flying Dutchman
