In professional wrestling, DDT is any movement in which the wrestler has an opponent in the front facelock/reverse lock, and falls or backwards to push the opponent's head into the mat. Classic DDT is done by placing the opponent in the front facelock and falling back so the opponent is forced to dive forward to his head. Although widely credited as the discovery of Jake Roberts, who gave DDT his famous name, the earliest known practitioner of the move was Mexican wrestler Black Gordman, who often did during the 1970s.

Variasi
varian facelock depan
DDT Argentina
The wrestler lifts the opponent onto his shoulders like on the Argentine backbreaker shelf, pushing the opponent's leg while still holding the front facelock, flipping them to the front of the wrestler. The wrestler falls to the front of the first mat, driving the face of the first opponent to the mat.
Cradle DDT
The wrestler applies the front facelock to the opponent, then lifts the opponent into the elevated hoist position and finally falls backwards pushes the opponent's head first into the mat. WWE wrestler Paige uses this variation as a final step called Ram-Paige . The variation, known as the DDT hammerlock cradle, involves the attacking wrestler lifting the opponent into the bearhug, applying the hammer, then the front facelock, then finally pushing the opponent's head into the mat. British wrestler Joseph Conners uses this variation, known as Straight Murder .
DDT double circle
Innovated by the legendary Kenta Kobashi. Instead of applying a head or facelock, the wrestler bends his opponent forward and hooks each arm behind the opponent's head. This is known as a butterfly. The wrestler then folds the opponent's head under one of his arms, and then falls back to pull the opponent down, either on his face, which is a more common variant, or over their head, causing them to roll over, as in ordinary DDT. It is also known as dual arm DDT or DDT butterfly. Mick Foley, Stevie Richards, Drew McIntyre, and Dean Ambrose have popularized these DDT variations. Foley uses the leap version, Richards uses a variation of the rapture he calls Stevie-T, while McIntyre and Ambrose use the snap variations they call Future Shock and Gross Deeds , respectively.
DDT Diving
The wrestler stands in an elevated position (usually a top rope) and faces a standing or bent opponent. As they dive, wrestlers wrap their nearby arms around the opponent's head on the front facelock and swing themselves back in the air, landing back first and simultaneously forcing the opponent's head into the mat.
Improved DDT
This DDT version first sees a wrestling attack putting an opponent on an elevated surface, usually a rope or a turnbuckle, when applying the front facelock. The next attack wrestler pulls the opponent away from the elevated surface leaving the opponent's foot above the elevated surface (ie the rope strings), making them the only thing other than a wrestler that guards the opponent from the ground. The wrestler attacks then falls back so that the opponent is forced to dive forward to his head with extra force due to the height dropped. This DDT variation is used as a signature motion by Randy Orton. This can also be done as a double team movement. A little variety, known as DDT Diving or Halo DDT, exists and sees both wrestlers and opponents on high surfaces, although with wrestlers facing the ring. With the opponent in the front facelock, wrestlers and opponents are equally diving off the elevated surface, so the wrestler falls forward to do DDT instead of falling backwards. This step is sometimes referred to as a spike in DDT , because the wrestler retains the ground in reverse, almost completely vertical position (known as the "thorny" position, which refers to when the wrestler is actually dropping the vertical upside down ). This step is usually done with the legs of a wrestler that survives on the middle rope, sometimes to an opponent who tries to enter the ring.
Facebreaker DDT
The wrestler applies the front facelock and then falls backwards, like a normal DDT, but instead of the opponent's head affecting the mat, the wrestler falls into a kneeling or sitting position that pushes the opponent's face to his knee.
Behind DDT
Also known as DDT front flip. After applying the front facelock, the wrestler pushes the mat with his legs to flip the opponent and aim him over their heads in a similar way to the flip pilperriver. This step is used by Drago at Lucha Underground.
Flip-over DDT
Also known as the Samurai Driver, this DDT sees the wrestler put his head between the opponent's thighs before jumping upward while pushing away from the opponent's thigh to flip and sit on the opponent's shoulder. The wrestlers then spread their legs, dropping the opponent's shoulders as they grab the opponent's head on the front facelock to drop onto the mattress again, pushing the opponent's head into the mat. This movement sees the attacking wrestler being pulled in the powerbomb position so often this movement is used as a barrier to the powerbomb.
FLAN-over_DDT "> FLT more than
This DDT sees the wrestler standing in front of his opponent facing him, ducks, hooks one of his arms over the opponent's shoulder (if the opponent's left shoulder is the attacker's opponent, he hooks his right, or otherwise if the side is reversed), swing yourself under the opponent's armpit and then around the back so he faces the same way as the opponent, locks his opponent's head under the knob of his hand, turns 180 degrees again to end the locked opponent on the front facelock and falls back to push the opponent's skull first onto the mat, just like on a regular DDT. Maneuver is usually done after the attacker bends the blow or clothesline.
Flowing DDT
Variants of DDT popularized by Raven, wrestlers will kick an opponent in the stomach before applying the front facelock and kick their legs sharply in front of them to push the top of the opponent's head into the mat.
Carry DDT fire extinguisher
Also described as a DDT implant carrier implant, this movement sees the wrestler attack first puts the opponent in the fireman's position (on the shoulder of the wrestler), then throws the opponent's leg in front of him to rotate it when the wrestler strikes his arm position which holds the opponent's head to the front facelock and fall backwards to push the top of the opponent's head into the mat.
Fisherman DDT
After applying the front facelock, the wrestler hooks the opponent's leg with the other arm, lifts it to the vertical position, and falls backwards, pushing the opponent's head down onto the mat.
Headscissors DDT
Very different from classical or traditional DDT, because wrestlers never use their hands in this variation. The wrestler seizes the opponent with his head upright, then falls back, hitting the opponent to the mattress first. Also often referred to as Hurricanrana Driver or Hurricanrana Piledriver. This step is used by Naomi.
Hammerlock DDT
The classic DDT variation in which the wrestler first applies the hammer in the opponent's arm, then goes to the front facelock, and then falls backwards, pushing the opponent's head into the mat. Andrade "Cien" Almas uses this step as a finisher. Tessa Blanchard also uses a variant of movement.
DDT implants
DDT implants refer to DDT variations in which the opponent is pushed to the surface of the first mat, as in the faceplant, and not in their head. The most common variation is lifting DDT. A common variation of double-invite DDT is implant variation. Another variation sees wrestlers putting their opponents overhead, but instead of falling backwards, they jump backwards, drawing opponents with their faces facing the mat.
Jump DDT
A slight variation in which not only fell backward, wrestlers jumped up while holding the front facelock and then using the weight and momentum to pull an opponent over their heads. Also, this motion variation is sometimes seen where, when the wrestlers jump, they use the horizontal position to do a front dropkick to the opponent's knee to add additional impact to the move.
Legsweep DDT
Also known as the Russian foot, DDT. In this DDT version the wrestler applies the front facelock and then performs the type of foot to actually take the foot from under the opponent before falling backwards to push the opponent's face first into the mat.
Lifting DDT
This DDT version is similar to DDT spike and is often referred to as a low angle brainbuster, or just as a DDT implant. The wrestler attacks the front facelock to the opponent then lifts the opponent off the ground before falling backwards to push the opponent's face or head first into the mat. A slight variation of this sees wrestlers twisting their opponents' bodies as they raise opponents off the ground. Another version, lift DDT upside down, see the wrestler apply reverse facelock, lift the opponent off the ground and down again. The move was popularized by Gangrel during his work at WWE calling his move DDT Impaler . The move is also used to be a finisher for the former WWE Edge wrestler who calls it Edgecution. Now it's being done by TNA wrestlers Bram as The Serious Side of Suffering , Heath Slater calling it Smash Hit and Bobby Roode using rotating variations, as > DDT Mulia .
Above DDT shoulder
Attack wrestlers place opponents above the shoulders as in powerlam set but throw them off and around their bodies grab their heads and carry out modified DDT or modified facebuster.
Running DDT
The wrestler attacks the opponent who bends forward and applies the front facelock before pulling back to push the opponent down to the first mat. In another variation the wrestler will also push the opponent with his free arm, performing a DDT thorn version.
Scissored DDT
The move sees wrestlers applying front facelocks and then putting one of their legs on one of the opponent's arms before falling back and pushing the opponent's head first onto the mat.
Shooting DDT stars
Opponents face wrestlers at turnbuckle. The wrestler then backflips on the opponent who captures the opponent into DDT on the way down.
Single underhook DDT
The wrestler places the opponent on the front facelock and hooks only one of the opponent's arms behind their neck, as if going for a suplex, before falling back and pushing the opponent's head into the mat. This motion variation sees the wrestler lifting the opponent from the ground after applying the bottom, before falling back to push the opponent's head first to the mat. This raised variation was popularized by Prince Devitt, who used it as a finisher under the name Bloody Sunday and <1916 as Finn BÃÆ' Ã'lor.
Slingshot DDT
The wrestlers stand in the apron ring and do the slingshot, and as they pull themselves over the ropes, they take their opponents in front of the facelock and fall backwards, pushing their opponent's head into the mat. This version was used as a finisher by Johnny Gargano.
Snap DDT
The wrestler applies the front facelock to his opponent. The wrestlers then jump onto their backs, swing their legs forward, bend their opponents, and point them to the surface of the mat, forehead, or head first. A slight variation sees the wrestler pulling one of their legs back (usually the leg closest to the opponent) before swinging it forward to build additional momentum. They then flopped backward, pushing the opponent's head first into the mat. Lita uses this as her finisher and calls her Lita DDT . Maryse calls this step French Kiss . Alexa Bliss uses this step by calling it Bliss DDT
Spike DDT
This DDT variation involves throwing an opponent over the top rope or the upper turnbuckles into the apron, then making a movement after pulling the opponent between the second and top ropes. At this point, the opponent faces the mat with his legs on the second rope and his head in a headlock position. Other wrestlers will fall back dropping opponents to the mat. This variation is most famously used by Randy Orton, as one of his signature movements.
Tilt-a-whirl DDT
This variation sees a spinning filling wrestler being tilt-a-whirl and ends up into DDT. Inverted variation is also possible.
Tornado DDT
DDT tornadoes are also referred to as DDT spin/spin. A wrestler goes to the top ropes and applies the front facelock to the opponent from an elevated position (eg, sitting on a turnbuckle over an opponent standing on a mat, or from an apron against an opponent standing on the ground). The wrestler then jumps forward and swings backwards to fall backward and drops the opponent's head into the mat.
Standing tornado DDT
In this version, the fighter picks up the opponent who stands up, jumps and applies the front facelock in the air before swinging and falling back when the opponent hits the first face or the first head into the canvas. This is sometimes known as DDT jumping swing and is used regularly by fighters who use standard DDT tornadoes. Mickie James popularized this step with the name Mickie-DT .
DDT vertical supplements
The wrestler applies the front facelock and lifts the opponent up vertically and backwards pushes the opponent's head first into the mat.
reverse facelock variant
This subsection lists DDT involving opponents who are dropped behind their heads. Base reverse DDT also known as reverse DDT.
Falling DDT overturned
A wrestler applies a reverse facelock. Then the assailant threw his own legs back, fell into his own stomach. The defensive wrestler has the back of his head pushed to the mat. Popularized by Christian
Half nelson inverted DDT
The wrestler attacks applying the reverse facelock and puts his arm under the opponent's arm to complete the half nelson and falls down with the opponent's head pushed onto the mattress
Inverted DDT
Generally known as reverse DDT. A wrestler applies a reverse facelock to his opponent, then falls backward to move the back of the opponent's head to the mat. This move was popularized by Sting in the late 1990s after he adopted it as his new finisher and named it Scorpion Death Drop.
Tornado reversed DDT
The wrestling attack implements a reverse facelock from an elevated position (eg, sitting on a turnbuckle over an opponent standing on a mat, or from an apron against an opponent standing on the ground). He then jumps out so he spins around the opponent. Using the momentum of the jump, he falls forward and slams the back of the opponent's head into the mat. An inverted tornado version jumps up from this step is also possible.
Lifting reverse DDT
The wrestler applies the reverse facelock on the opponent with one hand, and lifts the opponent with the other. The wrestler then falls backwards, slightly to the side, pushing the opponent down into the upper back of the mat and the first head. This step is sometimes mistakenly referred to as reverse DDT or inverted DDT. Other variations used can be done where the wrestlers fall on their stomachs instead of their backs, known as DDT upside down removal.
Inverted snap DDT
A wrestler applies a reverse facelock to the opponent, swings both legs for momentum and then falls backwards to push the back of the opponent's head into the mat.
Standing shiranui
Also known as the inverted DDT three-quarter facelock backflip. In this step the wrestler implements a three-quarter facelock on the opponent and backflips on the opponent while keeping the facelock turn it into an inverted facelock and then landing the face onto the mat, behind their own sideways, on their knees, or in a sitting position, to push the opponent's head back to the mat. This step has several names, usually depending on the person doing that. The official name of the movement was once "Asai DDT" as innovated by Yoshihiro Asai (ÃÆ'à ¡ltimo DragÃÆ'ón). Sitout variations are used by former TNA wrestler Sonjay Dutt, as well as by WWE Kalisto wrestler.
NJPW wrestler Tetsuya Naito uses a modified version of this movement called Destino that makes him grasp and weaken his right arm with his right arm from behind while grabbing under the outstretched right arm to hold the opponent's head with his left arm when running a few short steps forward to jump and execute maneuvers.
Swung DDT upside down
This variation sees a wrestler's key on the front facelock and, as it falls backwards, turns their opponent into causing the opponent to land behind their heads, as in the upside-down DDT stands. The same technique can be used to end with a falling DDT that falls. A slight variation of this sees the wrestlers reach beneath the opponent when setting the pace to grab their long arm. From there, the wrestler pulls the upper arm, causing the opponent to rotate around until they are in the reverse facelock before then dropping backwards to the standard inverted DDT.
Tilt-a-whirl upside down DDT
Similar to normal tilt-a-whirl DDT. This DDT sees the charging wrestler being tilted by the opponent, after the maneuver ends, the wrestler holds the opponent into the reverse facelock, and then falls backwards while he is lifted from the mattress into reverse DDT.
