** The SignatureMove of young Bamm Bamm Rubble. ''"[[CatchPhrase BAM-BAM-BAM!]]"''

-->-- ''Film/TheAvengers2012''

* Alien Green from ''VideoGame/BattleCircuit'' can do this.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Brickleberry}}'': Denzel gets a baby elephant dressed as Franchise/{{Superman}} that does this to him.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles'', Syndrome engages in some of this during his initial confrontation with Mr. Incredible, with the help of a TractorBeam. However, it shuts off on its own after only a few bashes, sending Mr. Incredible flying off into the distance instead.

* This is how [[spoiler:Nene Motoe]] dies in ''Anime/BloodC'', as [[spoiler:one of the Elder Bairns grabs her by the legs and smashes her into a pulp against the ground.]]

* ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'': As shown in ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld'' and ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterRise'', the Rajang uses this as its preferred technique against Flying Wyverns, grabbing them out of the air by the tail, then bashing them against the ground few times before tossing them into the nearest wall. The scary thing is how ''[[TheWorfEffect easily]]'' it does it, considering most Flying Wyverns are formidable threats in their own right, cementing the Fanged Beast's place in the power hierarchy.

* ''WesternAnimation/BrotherBear'': Koda does this to one of the two moose brothers in the credit outtakes.

* In ''Franchise/{{Asterix}} at the Olympic Games'', the Roman champion Humungus grabs the Egyptian pugilist by the leg and then slams him to the ground left and right.

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTheMovie1986'': The Phlume slams Reeka like this.

** One-upped by Groot in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'': after dealing with Korath's forces alongside Star Lord and Drax, another group of {{Mooks}} appear to contain the three. [[spoiler:Groot then proceeds to [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice shish-kebab]] a few of them, then uses them to whip away the others.]]

-->--''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}''

* Fighter, from the first chapter/episode of ''LightNovel/GoblinSlayer'', gets smashed against several cave walls by a big hobgoblin that proved to be too strong for [[KickChick her kicks]] to handle. [[RapeAsDrama What happens to her]] after this is ''anything'' but pretty.

* An Indigo League episode of the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' anime has Ash's Bulbasaur get beaten up by a Bellsprout in this manner.

* General Ironwood of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' does this to an elder Beowolf Grimm that we just saw rip two of his androids in half. Given that up to now, we've barely even seen him fight, it's actually a bit shocking.

** In ''Anime/DragonBallSuperBroly'', Goku's on the receiving end of this once again, this time from (now-actually-canon)Broly himself.

* Fighter from the first chapter/episode of ''LightNovel/GoblinSlayer'', gets smashed against several cave walls by a big hobgoblin that proved to be too strong for [[KickChick her kicks]] to handle. [[RapeAsDrama What happens to her]] after this is ''anything'' but pretty.

** Later on during Wano, [[spoiler: Gear Fifth Luffy performs a mashing on Kaido in his dragon form. Keep in mind that dragon Kaido is absolutely massive, and Luffy was able to do this without much trouble.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Turbo}}'': Turbo does this [[spoiler: ''from inside a crow'' that made the mistake of swallowing him just after he saves his brother Chet.]]

* ''Film/SkyHigh2005'': Will does this to [[spoiler: Royal Pain]] when they fight.

* In ''VideoGame/LEGOMarvelSuperHeroes'' and subsequent LEGO Marvel games Hulk can do this movement to most enemies the same way he did it to Loki in the ''Avengers'' film.

* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'': Buttercup does this to Fuzzy Lumpkins in the episode "Makes Zen to Me".

* ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'': Marco does this to Jeremy when he got a Monster Arm.

* The Rajang of ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'' uses this as its preferred technique against Flying Wyverns, grabbing them out of the air by the tail, then bashing them against the ground few times before tossing them into the nearest wall. The scary thing is how ''[[TheWorfEffect easily]]'' it does it, considering most Flying Wyverns are formidable threats in their own right, cementing the Fanged Beast's place in the power hierarchy.

* The page image comes from the SNES port of ''VideoGame/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesTurtlesInTime''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ3Syf4fEYI Here's a video of it]]. It's also SimpleYetAwesome as it's a OneHitKill on all Foot Ninjas (the one being thrown, as well as those hit by him) and gives you more points than killing them normally.

* There's a [[TheManyDeathsOfYou particularly nightmarish way to die]] in the classic 1996 ''VideoGame/TombRaider'' at the hands of the Abomination. The creature grabs Lara by the leg (and she screams) then it proceeds to fuck her shit up by slamming her into the floor, with a SickeningCrunch with each impact. Once the Abomination realizes that Lara has died after the third time, it dangles her mangled and crushed body and then drops it. The scene plays out like a child being a bit too rough with a toy and accidentally breaking it.

* ''WebAnimation/ToonSandwich'': In "WebAnimation/SuperHeroBowl", the ComicBook/IncredibleHulk grabs Franchise/{{Superman}} by the ankle and subjects him to the "puny god" routine.

* In ''Manga/OnePiece'', Nightmare Luffy does this to Oars. It should be mentioned that, while Nightmare Luffy is about as big as the hulk, Oars is as big as a ''skyscraper''.

* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' edition 3.0: from the splatbook ''Oriental Adventures'', the feat "Great Throw" allows inflicting damage on a trip attack by swinging a foe overhead. Since nothing in the "prone" condition prevents from being targeted by another trip attack, this can be done again and again during a full-attack action, resulting in this trope. This is especially nasty since the move ignores armor entirely, although it doesn't work on creatures bigger than the tripper.

* In ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'' certain enemies (the scorpion-like Sir Krawlie and his later {{Palette Swap}}s) can do this to your characters as a HPToOne attack.

** [[UpToEleven One-upped]] by Groot in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'': after dealing with Korath's forces alongside Star Lord and Drax, another group of {{Mooks}} appear to contain the three.
