An intense wrestling sculpture, Suplay, was a private commission requested of Richard Stravitz in early 2015. The sculpture is currently at the foundry where it is undergoing its bronze casting. It will be complete in October of 2015.

"Suplay," a term originally known as "suplex," is a wrestling move where the offensive wrestler lifts his opponent and bridges to throw his opponent's body onto the mat.

Stravitz's sculpture captures the intensity and emotion of this on-the-edge-of-your-seat moment between these two wrestlers, who are forever caught in the midst of the match's deciding moment.
