5 illegal moves rarely used in the WWE today

#5 The Low Blow

If there existed a Slammy Award for Illegal Move of the Year, the Low Blow would present a legitimate claim annually. Few moves in the WWE make the audience cringe like the Low Blow and the move is rightly frowned upon. However, this still doesn’t prevent wrestlers from using it, with Ric Flair especially notorious in his perusal of the move. Not for nothing did he earn the moniker – The Dirtiest Player in the Game.

One can only imagine the level of professionalism that these wrestlers have to uphold in pulling off a spot like a low-blow while making it look believable to the audience and at the same time taking utmost care not to hurt their colleague. An unconventional, yet apt, example of just how much mental application wrestling actually requires.
