Wrestler (Copy Ability)

Wrestler is a Copy Ability that Kirby can use in the Kirby series, which debuted in Kirby Fighters 2, unlocked when the player attains a Fighters Rank of 2, making it the first unlockable ability in the game. Wrestler Kirby is able to use a number of powerful grappler and wrestler moves, many of which involve grabbing enemies and throwing them for high damage.
==Description==
Wrestler Kirby wears a bright-red luchador mask with yellow flame-like decals that cover around his eyes, as well as yellow spikes on his head. Almost all of his abilities are close-range, requiring him to get up close with enemies in order to deal any damage. However, his attacks are incredibly powerful, making up for the lack of range. Many of his attacks involve grabbing enemies close to him, and then performing various wrestling moves to damage and throw them, such as a backbreaker, a suplex, or a giant swing. He also has various other physical attacks, including a headbutt, a dropkick, and falling stomp.
All of these moves together make for an extremely powerful Copy Ability that favors close-quarters combat and aggressive play. The ability to throw enemies is similar to the Suplex ability, and some of Wrestler Kirby's techniques are shared with Fighter.

==Trivia==
*Meteor Plancha is very similar to Incineroar's up special, Cross Chop, in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate; both of them rise into the air, then fall diagonally downward on opponents before causing an explosion upon landing.
*Wrestler Kirby's artwork is also similar to Kirby's pose in his render for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, with him having a mad face as opposed to a happy one.
