1)#9 is a Deathlock STF

2)You forgot the Crossface Chickenwing,Bob Backlund's finisher.

3)5stars for this awesome vid!!

[ElHijoDeResop]

Backlund's finisher is awesome but I didn't know where to find it other than WWF footage which is highly protected.

[ElHijoDeResop]

Because, to paraphrase Greg Valentine's T-shirt, it's the move that broke Wahoo McDaniel's leg.

[zachsims520]

double chin leg lock is now called the STF

I was watching the spinning toe hold and I was thinking, "There had better be a Funk applying that hold or else!". LOL Good stuff!

[Toracube]

Cool Vid !!!!! Great music on it.

[BrokenSaintRW]

For the record, #1 isn't an ankle lock: It's an Achilles hold.

[DaWreckster]

Hey dude u wanna see some awesome holds from the modern era, check out Desmond Wolfe in TNA or some of his earlier stuff as Nigel McGuiness.

Nice selection of clips, i spotted Gerry Brisco, Dusty Rhodes, Kerry von Erich, Bruiser Brody & Dorey Funk.
