Good god. Everything Shibata did is so brutal.
spinning backfists, palm strikes, and… slaps
Edit: Hmmm now I think its technically called an **spinning open-chop/slap/hand* –** I’ve been doing some research and I’m not sure
here’s a spinning back fist: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vn2NycQDJw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vn2NycQDJw)
JEEZ SHIBATA
My favorite move in wrestling is the bitch maker by Shibata
Geez, Shibata on Goto. 😦
Bitch slap. And the reverse spinning bitch slap. And Shibata’s version is the Bitch Maker
[removed]
It’s called keeping your pimp hand strong
That’s pimp Kwon do very underrated style
I call that the “every girl I asked out in college’s response.”
Spinning backhand, the normal slap I suppose could be considered a straight hand slap because it’s kept firm. A pimp slap of you will.
When Suzuki slaps someone its simply called death
It’s called “what did 5 fingers say to the face”
Spinning backhand, I’m assuming?
In Karate I think it’s called an Uraken, and I’ve heard Excalibur call that for an Eddie Kingston strike just like that before.
Strong Style Face Five.

Some would call it a palm strike or just a slap. The one Kenta does from the front could be described more as an Overhead Palm Strike. The back-spinning one is just a spinning chop. If it’s a closed fist with a spin, I’ve heard it called a Spinning Backfist or the Uraken.
Rolling overhand chop.

It’s called The Twisted Smith.
Get it?
Stephanie McMahon’s No Mercy Finisher
It’s called Bitch Slap
Palm strike?
Tanahashi’s is called the ‘Dragon-shiki Harite’ according to Puroresu System wiki anyway. Shibata and KENTA’s Spinning ones are just that, a Spinning Backhand. The others are just Open Hand Slaps.
Spinning backfist is called an Urkan
That overhand Kenta did was nasty
Damn…Shibata performing an exorcism and blasting the spirit out of Goto there…
