Watching a few vids of Orton doing the Thesz Press, comparing it with Austin.
Both involve jumping at the opponent with a forward momentum.
Austin throws his limbs forward and engulfs his opponent, taking them down hard, landing on them and immediately sgtriking.
Orton throws all of his limbs backwards (including his head) and allows the opponent to be taken down via running into his crotch. Then he has to change position to end up in the striking position. He has to finish the landing from his jumping crotch shot and then go into the striking position.
