I wa watching RAW on friday night as I do, and something struck me that hasn't struck me in 10 years ofwatching wrestling. Why is the inverted atomic drop not a move resulting in DQ - It's a lowblow which is illegal so why no DQ?

Same reason an actual low blow doesn't result in a DQ. :y:

Because the rf sees it as a moified atomic drop, whereby the contact is on the tailbone, not groin

It affects the whole groin area, but it's not like it's a fist or a foot or any other body part to the groin. You're lifting the opponent up and placing him on the mat again.

I believe that a regular atomic drop is where a wrestler lifts another wrestler up for a backdrop, then sets them back down on their feet with the knee between the legs.

Regular atomic drop is the equivilant of a knee up the arsehole. Quite sore when done right actually.

Note that the guy goes forward (to the left) and lands on the knee of the guy in the red white and blue trunks.

I mean, from that pic, you could have been showing a backdrop. :p
