It is a move that is used by Zayn to set up his finisher, the Helluva Kick. Zayn grabs his opponent and Suplexes them into the turnbuckles. As the opponent gets up, Zayn seals the deal with the Helluva Kick. It’s one of his greatest signature moves. Although a simple move, being tossed into the turnbuckles doesn’t sound like a lot of fun.

It takes an exceptional wrestler to perform 2 moves in a single combination and execute them perfectly. Especially moves like Suicide Dive and Tornado DDT, both of which aren’t easy to perform. Zayn usually performs them outside the ring. He dives through the gap between the bottom turnbuckle and the steel post, into his opponent and delivers a Tornado DDT in the same momentum. Without a doubt, it’s one of the toughest moves to pull off, and Zayn does it effortlessly.
