Tech Possible tech for stuffing wakeup opportunities

Hey guys, forgive me if this is known or whatever, but I was playing around with some GL combos today and found something interesting using MB Lantern's Might and b3.

Here's the combo I was working on:
ji3, 22~OR mb, b23~LM mb, b3, >, 223~LM.

I was screwing around with the timing on the B3, and I noticed that if I hit the dummy at the right moment, it would auto-stand him. So I turned on rolling and set the dummy to do an invincible wakeup (Black Adam's lightning cage) and tried it again and it still worked. Then I tried it with raw Lantern's Might (MB) to make sure it wasn't something extremely situational, and it still worked!

So here's the deal:
1. Land a meter burned Lantern's Might
2. Time a b3 so that GL's fist is sweeping the ground right as the opponent is about to land (timing on this will vary based on bounce height scaling).
3. If timed right, the opponent will auto-stand and lose the ability to do a wakeup attack.

Edit: for clarity and practice purposes, if you land a raw LM mb, the timing is to hit b3 right as the opponent is hitting the very peak of his bounce height and about to start coming down.

Enjoy and please report back here if this turns out to be useful!
