I ordered the April Hunter card to expand my women's group in LOW. I have some questions about her moves, though, since I'm not too familiar with her.
What are the following moves on her Level 3 offense:
The Hunter Lock Hunter's Hangman The Head Hunter

Here are the bios I wrote for April and JD back when the cards were released.
APRIL HUNTER
April Hunter came into the wrestling world when women's wrestling wasn't very popular. That didn't matter as she was determined to make her mark in the sport, and that she most assuredly did.
Hunter worked previously as a fitness model, showing off her already powerful physique. She joined one of the major promotions in the United States as a valet for the most popular group of wrestlers at the time. With that taste of the business she was hooked and wanted to become a wrestler, not just a valet.
Hunter went to fellow Legend Killer Kowalski's school where she trained and learned all that she could. Kowalski taught her how to work on the mat and how to go after the submission. Hunter was easily one of the most powerful women on the independent wrestling circuit in the northeast.
Once Hunter got in the ring, she got better and better everytime out. Hunter became the top indy female wrestler in North America and made plenty of trips to compete in Canada, Mexico, Japan and Europe. She won many regional championships and also held a men's tag team championship on one occasion.
There are several big moves Hunter uses to win matches. The Head Hunter is a somersault neckbreaker, that she can hit coming off the ropes or occasionally from the second turnbuckle. The Hunter's Hangman is a submission move while hanging over the ropes. The Hunter Lock is a double leg takedown into a Boston crab submission.
As a fan, Hunter became a fan of Legend Sherri Martel. Now she can step into the ring against Martel and see how she measures up!
Hunter also manages at ringside and accompanys her husband JD Michaels. She likes to get involved in the action to try and help her man.
Quotes "How can something that looks so good, hurt so bad?" "You can sleep with a blonde, You can sleep with a brunette...but you'll never get any sleep with a redhead!" "Just because you look like a centerfold doesn't mean you have to wrestle like one." "They're fake, but I'm real." "I'm famous. You just don't know it yet." "I used to be a model. What did you ever do?"
JD MICHAELS
"#1 Superstar" JD Michaels was very athletic as a kid growing up. He devoted that natural ability to the field of professional wrestling and has worked himself into one of the best on the independent circuit in North America.
Michaels has worked in Canada, the U.S.A. and overseas and held various regional championships. Michaels is married to fellow Legend April Hunter and his wife normally accompanies him to ringside.
Michaels finisher is a flying elbow drop off the top rope.
Michaels hails from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Now he can side with fellow Legendary Canadians like Killer Kowalski, Angelo Mosca and the Mountie, or will he feud with the likes of Billy Red Lyons? One of his favorite wrestlers was Curt Hennig. Now Michaels can get into the ring and see how he stacks up against Hennig! Michaels could also fit into a Junior heavyweight division.

Head Hunter (flying somersault neckbreaker slam, sometimes uses a running variation) So basically the Blockbuster/whatever Shannon Moore called it?

Wow Ty thanks for the quick responses for both the moves and the bio. I plan on teaming her with Sherri Martel for a feud against Penny Banner & Ida Mae Martinez so it's cool to see that she looked up to Sherri. Thanks so much for the info.

Hunter's Hangman (submission over the ropes) Ty, is this similar to Tajiri's Tarantula move?

Yes it's close to the same thing. Trying to picture it again it may be the same but she does hang herself out over the ropes applying it.
