LAS VEGAS, United States (October 15) -- Adaugo NWACHUKWU (USA) may have pulled off the move of the year -- a dramatic one-handed suplex at the U23 World Championships in Las Vegas.

Nwachukwu was wrestling in the 62kg quarterfinals against Khulan BYAMBASUREN (MGL) and in the second period, she led 4-0. She then attempted a double-leg against Byambasuren who tried a whizzer.

However, Nwachukwu locked her by waist and created a perfect arc before slamming the Mongolian on the mat with one hand. She was awarded five points for the same.

Nwachukwu's lead swelled to 9-0 before she turned Byambasuren for an 11-0 win and a place in the semifinals.
