Widow's peak (1)
On searching through widow's peak and the word peak I came to understand that the word peak covers this /\ as well as this \/ . A pyramid or a wedge.

Widow's peak (2)

Gory neckbreaker
This elevated shoulder neckbreaker, also known as a Gory driver, first sees the attacking wrestler lift an opponent into a position where the opponent and the wrestler are back to back with the opponent's head pulled across the shoulder of the attacking wrestler and their legs hooked over the wrestler's legs (the Gory special). From this position the attacking wrestler drops to a sitting or kneeling position, driving the back of the opponent's neck into the shoulder of the attacking wrestler and the knees of the opponent into the mat. This move can also see the opponent's neck placed over the attacking wrestler's head instead of their shoulder. This is collectively known as a Widow's Peak, as popularized by Victoria.(wiki)

Who the who would Victoria be. The old Queen?

Good gracious -- I suspect her regular hangouts are places I don't go...
I once lived next door to a pair of women, the smaller (maybe 5'6") of whom pulled a full-sized refrigerator up their front steps virtually unassisted.
