Can be found in newspaper articles about wrestling and, perhaps, books. If we are really going to be a people's dictionary, this kind of thing will have to be in. DCDuring TALK 23:52, 14 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
But is it a general term, or a "signature" move used by a specific wrestler? If it's associated with a particular individual only, then I don't think it really meets the independence criterion. --EncycloPetey 03:29, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
It seems general. But perhaps it is only used in one of the wrestling entertainment businesses. I wish we had a wrestling fan for this kind of thing. It was probably originally used ironically, like "poetry in motion" in reference to the way someone walked or a car race. DCDuring TALK 11:25, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
All uses I can find are specific to Jeff Hardy, and frequently capitalized; this does suggest it is a signature move only. -- Visviva 09:22, 16 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
