The wombo combo is possibly the most recognizable competitive Smash video, referring to a California Tournament with commentary by HomeMade Waffles, Phil, and Mango.
It was "accidentally" created by SS/Tang and used on Zhu, who was playing as Fox. The original move itself was by using a constant grab release, until a final three-hit move of the Reflector, up smash, and then a knee smash.
The combo has since become very popular, mainly due to the video's humorous reactions, coining such phrases as "That ain't Falco!", and "Get yo ass whooped!". The sound has since been applied to other combos where it is usually coupled with the commentary to make the give the video humor value. A modified "You mad 'cause I'm stylin' on you" video was later uploaded with commentary from the wombo combo video, where Mango, Phil, and HomeMadeWaffles yell their signature quotes as a fight breaks when the talking man opposite the one in front of the camera is punched.
On October 30, 2010 at 4:00 PM (about 2 years after the wombo combo was on YouTube) The wombo combo reached a million views on YouTube. The Smash Boards thread can be found here.
"Sequels" to the wombo combo
Wombo combo 2
A later satire of the wombo combo by SS and Tang vs. Phil + Falcomist on Corneria which had a large 19 to 86 exactly after HMW said "Wombo combo" again. The tournament that this event was taken was in the CGC @ SFSU IX(9) (Bi-Weeklies) Grand Finals 2.2 in San Francisco, CA. The date that this was taken was 05/02/09. The commentry was by HomeMadeWaffles and Replicate.
Lunch money combo
The lunch money combo was with SS/Tang vs Shroomed/D.P at the Battlefield (the same stage as the original wombo combo). The tournament that this event was taken was in the CGC @ SFSU XIII(13) Winners Finals 1.3 in San Francisco, CA. The date that this event was taken was 11/7/09. The commentary was by HMW and Darrell. This was originally called Wombo Combo 3 but then it was changed due to the comments saying that it was sapossed to be called that.
The UGS combo
Commonly considered the European version of the wombo combo, done by Armada (Peach) and Aniolas (Sheik) vs ironically Falco on Battlefield (referencing That Ain't Falco from the original video). Around a day later, a wombo combo audio version was made to fit this scene. Both videos are quite popular.
