German Suplex (ジャーマンスープレックス?) is a move usable by King I in Tekken 2 and King II since Tekken 3. It is part of the Reverse Arm Slam Combo.
In Tekken 2, if the Reverse Arm Slam was started with f,d/f+1+3, the escape is 3+4. If the RAS was started with f,d/f+2+4, the escape is 1+3. In later games, the escape is 1.
It can be followed up with the Power Bomb.
Michelle Chang, Julia Chang, Wang Jinrei and Jun Kazama can also perform a German Suplex as a back throw, which is usually called the Behind Back Suplex. Julia's version of the throw from Tekken 4 onwards is however called a German Suplex, while Jun's version of the throw is called the Angler Drop. This back throw is a separate move and cannot chain into King's throw combos.
