Hurricanrana
The correct name for this maneuver is the huracanrana or huracarrana (the name was taken from Mexican luchador Huracán Ramírez), but it is commonly misspelled in English as hurricanrana. This is a Frankensteiner headscissors takedown that ends in a rana pinning hold.[7] (A rana is any double-leg cradle.) A high velocity version of the huracarrana, popularized by Japanese wrestler Dragon Kid, is known as the Ultra Rana. A third version, which sees the attacker perform a full front flip (usually following a springboard) before executing the huracarrana, is known as the Dragon Rana.
Headscissors takedown
The move is performed with the wrestler's legs scissored around the opponent's head, dragging the opponent into a forced somersault as the wrestler falls to the mat.[4]


[edit] Frankensteiner
This move is commonly referred to as a hurricanrana although it is technically slightly different. The move is described as a headscissors takedown that is performed against a running opponent. The wrestler jumps on the shoulders of the charging opponent and performs a backflip, using his momentum to throw the opponent over him and on to their back.[5]

It was named the "Frankensteiner" by Scott Steiner, who used it as a finishing move.[6] The move also has a variation where the opponent is sitting on the top rope, that variation is also referred to as frankensteiner. Another variation of the Frankensteiner sees a grounded wrestler first "kip-up" on to a standing opponent's shoulders, this is where a wrestler roll onto the back of his/her shoulders bringing his/her legs up and kicking forward to build momentum to lift themselves off the floor and on to the standing opponent. Reverse frankensteiner Also known as an inverted frankensteiner or a poison rana, this move is similar to a standard Frankensteiner but instead of performing the move facing the opponents face it is done facing the back of the opponent.
