WWE FINISHERS

Yes, We’re back with our completely pointless,useless and random quizzes.

This one is on WWE moves. At some point in our pathetic childhood, we’ve all tried these on(or in some cases *sigh* have had them tried on us by) pillows, siblings,friends, neighbour’s dog and in the dumbest of our moments – ourselves.

So let’s see if you remember anything about these “deadly” moves:

Following our some descriptions, see if you can give the names of these moves:

1) (The easiest one)

A direct kick or punch to the opponent’s crotch(pretty pointless if the opponent is female).

Considered illegal, although all wrestler’s have performed it more than once.

2)(pretty easy)The wrestler bends their opponent forward, placing the opponent’s head between the wrestler’s legs and then applies a

double underhook on the opponent. The wrestler then jumps up while tucking their knees causing them to lift their opponent off the mat before landing on their knees, forcing the opponent’s face into the mat.

3) Technically called the seated three-quarter facelock jawbreaker. It involves an attacking wrestler applying a three-quarter facelock (reaching back and grabbing the head of an opponent, thus pulling the opponent’s jaw above the wrestler’s shoulder) before falling to a seated position and forcing the opponent’s jaw (but predominantly the opponent’s neck) to drop down on the shoulder of the attacking wrestler. The free hand is sometimes used to hold the top of the head.

Identify the Wrestlers whose finishing moves are given below:

4)Punjabi Plunge

5)Twist of Fate

6)Sharp shooter

7)Mandible Claw

8)Identify the move:

Teri kya lagi? -The FaRrAAXX Quiz

Hello people,

One more insanely silly quiz for you. Given are the ratios of FRs+XXs in a course to AAs and APs. You have to tell me which course.

For those of you who do not quite know what that means and cracked JEE only by marking ABCB throughout the paper, this means that if a course has 1 FR and 1 XX, and 2 APs and 8 AAs, the Golden Ratio will be 0.2.

Additionally, because I am so nice, I am giving the ratio for 2008 and 2009.Co0l? Here goes.

The courses in question are MA 105, 106, 108; PH 103, 105; CH 103; HS 101; CS 101; IC 102

1. 2008 – 0.29, 2009 - 0.70

2. 2008 – 0.30, 2009 – 0.04

3. 2008 – 0.69, 2009 – 0.73

4. 2008 – 0.08, 2009 – 0.10

5. 2008 – 0.38, 2009 – 0.20

6. 2008 – 1.58, 2009 – 0.11

7. 2008 – 4.83, 2009 – 1.38

8. 2008 – 0.44, 2009 – 0.23

9. 2008 – 0.15, 2009 – 0.71

If you actually check the grading statistics for all these courses on asc, you’re a bigger loser than I am . So no point in my telling you not to do so.
