It's his downtilt - it spikes (meaning, it launches the opponent downwards without giving them the chance to instantly jump out or up-B out of the knockback - in short: death)
However it is very situational - if you know that your opponent is going to jump into the downtilt, it is indeed a great, flashy and effective read. But it seems to me, that it also is very easily avoided by not jumping, DIing, walljumping - the possibilities are endless.
I'd say it's a somewhat viable thing to do and useful to keep in mind- but don't take this kill for granted.

Most of the time, I would just opt for down smash.
You can meteor cancel d-tilt anyway.

something like this is good if they di down because it covers the instant double jump option (edguarding meteor cancel up b is cake)
Basically if they dont double jump but have di down you can still cover their recovery options.
Get accustomed to doing that with every character, something like a quick move (for YL Jab Dsmash Dtilt etc) with quick enough recovery and start up to immediately cover the hard to react to option while still being able to cover the easier ones.

I didn't like Peach enough. My Peach is better than my Samus, but I like Samus way more.
