Like the atomic drop. I can’t even remember when was the most recent match to feature an atomic drop. That is one of those wrestling moves that has just fallen out of style. What others are there?

Anybody out there consistently hitting the Randy Savage neck drop to the outside across the top rope?

I don't think we've seen an abdominal stretch with grabbing rope for extra leverage in a long time.

Yeah, there was also a stretch where some people were doing them as a trend because of the Twitter account that was just Rick Rude taking atomic drops, and that blew up with people trying to do their own sells for them.

Anybody out there consistently hitting the Randy Savage neck drop to the outside across the top rope? I have no idea how Macho did that every night for like 12 years without destroying his knees way sooner.

Nobody really does press slams anymore do they? Seemed like in the 80's and 90's every big muscle head had that in their repertoire. However over the 2000's it feels like it's just slowly went away.
As far moves that weren't ever common per say but were still cool and I'm surprised nobody has stolen are Bobby Eaton's slingshot backbreaker and that control technique The Mountie used to do where he would hook one of the guys arms in a hammerlock and the other in half nelson to restrain him before bashing their head repeatedly into the turnbuckle.

Bianca does it. She dropped Iyo on her face with a one armed version the other day. 😂

In tag matches, I have not seen a "double noggin-knocker" in ages (correct me if I'm wrong).

It isn't really a "move", but you never see a two guys doing a lengthy criss-cross.
Which is fine with me. Even when I was 12 I thought it looked stupid.

I would love to see a Dino Bravo-style side slam become a thing again.

Eddie Gilbert's Hot Shot top rope throat drop.
Or the Demolition Decapitation.
