Interesting technique that could be useful especially if you include drop kicks to the knees.

Imagine countering a charging opponent with this:

Minowa was a around top 20 at MW when he did it to Butterbean, twice. The first one landed pretty good too.

I'm pretty sure this was a low key minowa thread in disguise.
 
I'm sure Genki did in this fight but I can't find a GIF.

Did a good big swing though.

I'm pretty sure the physics of the drop kick prevent it from doing any real damage, which is why it's popular with rasslers.

Agreed. If the other guy sees it coming he can brace and you'll just bounce back. I'm sure they just do it more for show and for fun.
