Professional Wrestling Attacks - Senton

Senton

Similar to a big splash, except the wrestler jumps over an opponent while falling backwards to land back-first on the opponent. Often referred to as a senton splash or back splash in reference to the big splash as well as to differentiate from the senton's diving version. Another slight variation on a standard senton sees the attacking wrestler jump forward and perform a somersault (front flip) to land back-first on the opponent. This is appropriately known as a somersault senton, but is also referred to as a front flip senton/rolling senton.
