In seated powerbomb versions, before the first wrestler drops to a seated position the second wrestler will hold on to the opponent and sit down at the same time dropping the opponent between both their legs.

powerbomb position. The first wrestler keeps hold of the opponent's head at this point, holding it against their shoulder as with a
hangman's neckbreaker while keeping the opponent's back and head parallel with the ground. From here the first wrestler falls to a sitting position while the other wrestler who is holding the opponent in the powerbomb position drops to their knees, thus driving the neck of the opponent into the shoulder of this wrestler from an elevated position.
The move is also often known as a neckbreaker bomb or referred to as a Powerplex, a portmanteau of powerbomb and suplex, since one wrestler performs a suplex into the other to get their opponent into the proper position. Another name used in reference to this move is Villano breaker which was named after Villano IV, who was severely injured by a botched version of this move by Kanyon and Raven.

flapjack. In this move both wrestlers would push the opponent upward by reaching under their legs and lifting them into the air, while remaining the hold on the opponent’s legs the wrestlers would fall backwards, dropping the opponent front-first into the canvas.

leg drop (standing, or flying) on one person at the same time.
The team of Rob Van Dam & Rey Mysterio used a version of the double leg drop which they called the 4:20 (The official explanation for the name is that it comes from the number of feet 4 and their combined shoe size 20, though the obvious marijuana reference is often cited by fans, due to RVD's past gimmick as a stoner). This version involves one wrestler standing upright and one hanging off the shoulders of the other. The hanging wrestler extends his legs in a horizontal position, similar to a normal leg drop. The upright wrestler then jumps, extends his legs in a horizontal position, where all four legs will land on an opponent's chest, throat or face at the same time.
