Rocky Romero

Hey, could someone help me out..

Could someone describe the Romero Special #2, Lady of the Lake and the La Bamba finishers used by Rocky Romero (1/2 of the Havana Pitbulls)?

Also, did he have any different finishers/special moves while wrestling as Black Tiger (IV?)?

Much thanks in advance..

I believe that the Romero Special #2 is an esoteric arm submission.  From my understanding, the Lady of the Lake is another arm submission hold, but with a cute setup.  Basically Romero curls up in a ball in the middle of the ring with his hand sticking up as if out of a lake.  His confused opponent naturally grabs his hand... only to be pulled down into an esoteric arm submission.  Not sure about the La Bamba.

Romero's moveset as Black Tiger is much more luncha-based than under his regular gimmick, where he uses a lot of stiff strikes and the like.  As Black Tiger, he does a lot of rana and armdrag variants, and uses a Tiger Suplex as his finisher.
