5 cool MMA submission moves that pro-wrestling should totally adopt

#2 Arm-triangle choke

One of the deadliest submission moves in the UFC

The arm-triangle choke, if used to its fullest potential can administer excruciating pain as it involves clasping the opponent’s head between his/her own shoulders and the aggressor’s arm! The head and arm choke and side-choke are generic terms for this vicious move. Succinctly put, the arm triangle choke is a blood choke submission move that strangles the opponent between his/her own shoulder and your arm!

If carried out effectively, the advanced triangle choke will not take long to show effect because of its ability to restrict the flow of blood on both sides of the neck. With both arteries and sides cut-off, this perilous submission move can spawn an instant tap out. Irrespective of how strong the opponent is, the arm-triangle choke is bound to humble him/her in a not so humble way.

The submission move is primarily achieved from a side control position, however, it can also be initiated from the mount and half guard positions. Those who remember Brock Lesnar’s victory over Shane Carwin’s (UFC 116) will also remember the application of the submission! Perhaps Lesnar should use it more in World Wrestling Entertainment!
