How to unlock the Whoomp, There It Is! achievement in Gears of War 4 - Definitive Guide
This can be done during any part of the campaign or even in private versus. It can easily be completed in co-op or versus with a friend. It can be done solo, but it will be a lot harder to steal a kill from one of the AI.
First off, you will need to understand how Yank & Shank works. In order to do this, you will need to take cover across from an enemy on a shallow object. Now press forward , and then to pull them over the cover. Once they are pulled, stay close to them to press and execute them.
While playing in co-op, you'll want 1 person to pull an enemy over cover, and then you can execute them to get the achievement. Trade it by doing the same for them. An easy place to get this is during the Yank & Shank tutorial in Act I Chapter 1.

This can be done solo as I unlocked it that way, but it obviously requires some pretty heavy RNG. I only got to knife 2 or 3 enemies in my whole playthrough of the campaign that way.
So co-op is your best bet. Load up a chapter on Easy and have a friend perform a Yank move, by taking cover opposite of an enemy in cover, pushing up on the and then when the prompt appears in the bottom middle of the screen. Then, as the enemy is stunned, get up close and take the kill by pressing , again when the prompt appears.
EDIT: As NAPPSTER187 reminded me, this can also be unlocked in a private match with two of your friends.

But this can be obtained in multiple and private also.

Sure, let me edit the solution.

To do this in the Solo Campaign, go to Act II, Chapter II. In the Greenhouse section, once the first wave of Deebees spawns, immediately crouch down behind the table slightly to your left. This will make one of your partners go to the next table up. They will randomly pull a Deebee over this table, and you then need to rush forward and execute it. It can take many tries, though, due to controller clunkiness, not being fast enough, or dying as you rush forward (I did this on Insane).
