INTRODUCTION
______________________________________________________________________________

Hello everybody! Welcome to my movelist for T'ai Monique in Def Jam Vendetta.
Here you'll find a list of T'ai's moves.
I'll list the commands and names of every move and also the name of the move
in "real wrestling-terminology" or a short explanation. This may not always be
accurate as I'm not in any way a wrestling specialist. I have used the
movelists in WWE Smackdown! Shut your Mouth, or the internet, where my memory
was lacking. If you find any errors (which I'm sure you will) please mail me.

I recommend you to look in my FAQ for Briggs before reading further. There
you'll find the explanations for the different positions you'll have to be in
to perform the moves. There you'll also find a General Movelist with the
moves which are the same regardless which character you're playing as.

NOTE: When you're reading the Movelist, remember that the names to the left
are the "in-game names" and the names to right are the "real names" or
explanations. The letters at the far left are the buttons you have to press.

Special Moves
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

Grapple

bmAB     Cold Shower              T'ai stands on her hands and turns around so
                                 her front is towards the opponent. She wraps
                                 her legs around his waist and suplexs him
                                 over herself making him land on his
                                 shoulders in a weird position. He stays in
                                 this semi-up-side-down position as T'ai
                                 jumps and does an Elbow Drop to his groin.
                                 The opponent rolls forwards and lands in a
                                 sitting position with T'ai standing behind
                                 him. She finishes by punching his head with
                                 both fists from opposite directions.



Rear Grapple

bmAB     One Night Stand          T'ai starts by grabbing the opponent's
                                 ankles and drags them so he falls down to
                                 the ground. She now throws his legs upwards
                                 as she does a forward flip. She lands on his
                                 head with her feet and catches his ankles
                                 making his legs lie parallel with his
                                 body. She uses his legs as support while she
                                 jumps at the back of his head a couple of
                                 times, then she finishes by jumping higher,
                                 releasing his ankles and come crashing
                                 down to his head with one foot.




That's all from me! It's been fun.
