Many Uses for An Axe

So you thought an axe was just for chopping down trees didn't you? Well the axe has it's own special use and term in the world of wrestling. This term is lovingly referred to as the "Axe Handle". Read on to know just how wrestlers use it!

Also known as a 'Double Axe Handle' or Double Axe Handle Smash', this is accomplished by jumping from the top turnbuckle to the mat or floor and striking your opponent with two fists held together in the fashion of holding an axe.
