THE SUPLEX- On the left or on the right?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suplex
The Suplex is a nifty standard manoeuvre featuring 100's of variants. The bog standard suplex is used by practically everybody in wrestling.
Traditionally Suplexes are executed on the left. This is also for tidiness and psychology purposes. It is rare in the pro circuit you will see a suplex move ever executed on the right, much like a left armed clothesline. Right side suplexes are more often seen on the backyard scene where most people feel more comfortable using their right side.
For me I used to suplex on the right. Like with the DDT thing I was scolded for it and people I trained with refused to take the move. When I started using my left side I gained better results. I found things just got tidier. I found that taking left sided suplexes were easier to bump too.
Please don't anyone take this as a dig at right arm suplexes as I know some people are comfortable with the idea of a Suplex being performed on the right. I personally will stick to what I now know. I like to read other people's takes on moves and aspects of the wrestling business, hence this series of topics.
