suplexer

A suplexer is a term primarily used in professional wrestling to describe a wrestler who frequently utilizes suplex-based maneuvers as part of their offensive repertoire. A suplex is a wrestling hold that involves lifting an opponent and then driving them backward or sideways to the mat. There are numerous variations of the suplex, each with its own unique name and execution.

Wrestlers known as suplexers often incorporate several different types of suplexes into their matches, such as the German suplex, the belly-to-belly suplex, the snap suplex, and the dragon suplex. These moves are generally considered impactful and visually impressive, often leading to near-falls or decisive victories. A suplexer's style is typically characterized by strength, technique, and an ability to control their opponent's body during the lift and throw.

The effectiveness of a suplex often depends on the wrestler's ability to generate momentum and safely execute the maneuver on their opponent. In professional wrestling, the execution of a suplex is carefully choreographed to ensure the safety of both performers, with the receiving wrestler often assisting in the landing. Wrestlers who specialize in suplexes are often admired for their athleticism and the specific skill set required to perform these complex throws repeatedly. The term "suplexer" highlights a wrestler's signature move set and their overall in-ring style.
