Question

How can I avoid hurting my back when I land?

Community Answer

Wrestlers do these tricks on a type of flooring that was made for these type of stunts, not on concrete or hardwood floors. Unless you have access to these floors, don't attempt these stunts.

Question

I can't jump nicely, and I am just scared of falling on my back. What should I do?

Community Answer

Practice on a softer surface, like a mat or foam pit, until it doesn't scare you anymore. Work your way up to harder surfaces.

Question

How can I catch the victim for the RKO?

Community Answer

You need your opponent to be a little stunned. Randy delivers the RKO mostly after a power slam or an elevated DDT. If this cannot happen, you need to be real quick, and make sure your grip is tight when you jump and hold your opponent. If you think your opponent is too big for you, you can perform a Stone Cold Stunner after the above steps.

Question

What happens if the opponent forgot to jump?

Community Answer

If so, it’s not an RKO, but a stunner. Before doing it, tell him/her to jump.

Question

Can I do an RKO with no hands?

Community Answer

Probably not. You need to lock your opponent's head to drag them down, otherwise you'll land on your back with a lot of force.
