[It's clear that Watson has more hand to hand fighting experience than expected. Bucky knew he would have some, he was in the armed forces, but the move and the strategy behind it are excellent.
Lucky for him and his sole remaining working arm, he's used to people trying to damage him. He jerks away enough that the move only wrenches the arm, not dislocating it. It hurts a lot, but he doesn't stop, fighting through pain is a norm.
Now that John is off him, he scrambles back to his feet, pivoting once he reaches his knees to kick out. He's aiming for the ribs. A man fights far less well with broken ribs.]
