Many Wrestlers had preferred or 'Favourite' Moves-but more often than not lots of other
Wrestlers used and could execute these same Moves!!
Much harder to Witness was a SPECTACULAR ATTACK used by very few Wrestlers
indeed!! One such was the FLYING HEAD BUTT! This involved great Skill and also
Judgement as it had to be a well-timed AERIAL Manoeuvre usually 'launched' from
some distance!
Often used as a 'Finisher' by the Great Heavyweight ROCKY WALL it was pretty lethal
for the Opponent!! In the '60's jumping off Posts and ropes was deemed 'Unsafe' until
Mat Maestros like ROCCO came along!
A later frequent Exponent of the FLYING HEAD BUTT was WAYNE BRIDGES!

Who saw this Spectacular Aerial Move Live?
MAIN MASK
I saw Albert "Rocky" Wall's flying headbutt on many occasions. When both he and Nagasaki went over to work for Brian Dixon it was used several times as a variant with Wall mounting the top turnbuckle but, as he flew through the air, Nagasaki would pick up the hapless referee and use him as a shield with Wall inadvertently knocking the official unconscious. It cleverly avoided a decision between the two and made a change from the usual double disqualification fighting outside the ring or double knockout.
Ouch! Wayne coming in to land.
Luckily saw both Albert and Dynamite with finishing moves had to well timed or serious injury on either opponent could have been serious
Dynamite Kid, as Romeo says, diving head butt.
Saw Rocky Wall execute it live on many occasions.King Ben also used this move.Dynamite Kid did a variation of it diving from top of the corner post.A spectacular move indeed.
