Posting an opponent is quite probably one of the most basic elements of women's pro wrestling. The name 'posting' is a bit ambiguous because the move is basically about slamming the victim's head into the turnbuckle and not into the ring-post. Because the turnbuckle is covered with padding and because the impact is not as intense as the two wrestlers act it out to be, the move is really rather harmless. Its apparent brutality renders it pretty spectacular nonetheless.

Executing the move is really simple: the attacker grabs hold of the victim's hair on the back of her head and drags her along towards the turnbuckle. Once there, she slams her head into the top turnbuckle. Some extreme female wrestlers will sometimes remove the padding from the turnbuckles to inflict more damage. Other ladies will do the posting on the outside of the ring where there are no turnbuckles and padding, just the steel ring-post.

Still others may go further, repeatedly slamming their opponent's head into the turnbuckle, from a variety of different positions. The crowd will often play along counting out the number of times the victim's head hits the turnbuckle.

Possible escape: the victim can put her arms out grabbing the top rope just before impact and stiffening her neck at the same time, thus preventing the impact.

Rating: posting is basically just another element of in-ring brutality. It doesn't stand out in any peculiar manner, neither through its highly spectacular nature, not through the amount of damage it's supposed to deliver.
