NFL fans were unsure what to call an acrobatic tackle made by a Houston Texans defender that came straight out of WWE.
The Texans are pretty much having their way against the Buffalo Bills today, having gone into halftime with a 17-3 lead.
CJ Stroud has been showing out on offense, going 12-of-15 on his passing attempts for 187 yards and a touchdown. And it appears as though Neville Hewitt wanted to he just as flashy, as he made this acrobatic tackle to bring down a Bills punt returner.
Even the CBS commentary crew couldn’t believe what they were witnessing. Check it out in the video below:

The Houston Texans Defender Had Fans Arguing Over His Move
As seen above, the account posting the clip described it as a “FLYING SUPLEX TACKLE,” but fans weren’t so sure.
“RKO outta nowhere,” a user said.
“Amazing tackle!! Superfly Snuka!! 😂,” another suggested.
“That’s an RKO, brother!” someone declared.
“German Suplex,” said another.
“Bro got randy orton’d mid game 😂,” someone laughed.
Whatever it was, everyone can agree that it was just freaking cool.
