Second, we have the Argentinian Backbreaker. In this move, he picks up his opponent on his shoulders and brings him down on his back. It might not be as fatal as the Arm Breaker, but it does enough damage to the stomach and ribs.
Third, the Biel Throw. To execute this maneuver, he holds his opponent’s head and throws him upside down on the ropes.
Fourth, Kick and STO. Cody Rhodes kicks his opponent’s face first and then wraps his arms around their neck, bringing them down to the floor.

One of his most famous moves is the Butterfly Lock. He holds his opponent down in a lock and ensures to lock their shoulders. He doesn’t let go until his opponent is shivering with pain and most of the times, they tap out.
Coming to his fatal kick moves, the Drop Kick and the Pump Kick adorn his handsome repertoire. In the first move, he runs up to his opponent and then kicks them right in the chest.
