Talk:Brainbuster

Alternate technical name for Brainbuster
Could the Brainbuster be considered as a Sitout Vertical Suplex? jlog3000 (talk) 17:48, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Implant/Lifting Brainbuster?
For the Brainbuster, there are more variations than the ones displayed in the article. If only that person could apply it before having that variation confirmed officially. For example, how about an Implant/Lifting Brainbuster or an Implant/Lifting Brainbuster DDT, which a wrestler does a brainbuster but in a fastbreak version, like it was going to lift his opponent?

Front Brainbuster?
How about a Front Brainbuster, which is when a wrestler positions with his opponent in a front facelock and later turns the opponent a 180 and slams his opponent to the ground on the head area? Don't believe me, try see one when playing WWF Attitude the game for the PSX or N64 (for those who still have emulators, that is), try to create a wrestler and add that move and see it for yourselves because for me it still exists despite not applied very often.

Japanese version
This article indicated that the brainbuster was known as the vertical suplex in Japan when, according to the Japanese version of this page, the opposite is true. The brainbuster was replaced early on in Japan by the vertical suplex because the brainbuster (dropping the other guy on his head) was considered too dangerous, yet the name brainbuster had already stuck. When the real brainbuster came back to the scene in the early 90's, they called it 'vertical drop style brainbuster' or 'original brainbuster' in Japan to distinguish it from the suplex version (dropping the opponent on his back).

In any case, the term 'vertical suplex' is not used in Japan, so I removed the reference.
