Pro Wrestling – Can somebody please explain to me why seemingly no wrestler these days can kick out of a roll-up pin?
Hi, Trish again. Surely I'm not the only one that notices this, am I? I don't recall anybody else saying anything about it. It seems like that wrestlers these days can kick out of everything except a roll-up pin. Why? It's something that been bothering me for a while now. It's seems to be mighty common with this era and kind of makes it a little hard to watch. Maybe the classic "Schoolboy" roll-up pin should be every wrestler's finisher, huh? I mean, it seems to be more effective than nearly everything else.

I agree with you 100%!, it must be because there is no leverage to kick out. I have asked this type of question many other times, and am amazed how a wrestler can kick out on a two count right after a solid kick to the face, but a roll up pin seems to be a ***** to kick out of two on.

In Professional Wrestling in general, no matter the Era nobody kicked out of particular Roll-Up Pins in Pro Wrestling. The Professional Wrestlers in this Era, kick-out of nothing more then any other Era. We're not going to see someone go down to a dropkick, this isn't the 1930s.

I'll attempt to explain it in kayfabe. When a wrestler does a roll up, it surprises their opponent. In addition to that, the wrestler that is performing the roll up has all of their weight on their opponent. This pressure makes it very difficult to kick out.
