Sorry, but I was never a fan of the Crippler Crossface. It doesn't hurt, doesn't look like it would hurt, and is the easiest to get out of.
I'd replace its position on the list with the Crossface Chicken Wing then add the Regal Stretch, Luger's Torture Rack, or the Walls of Jericho (before everyone started kicking out of it).

Brett's sharpshooter is overrated, sadly. And, the Walla of Jericho should be there, not the Crippler Crossface, thats one of the worst submissions, besides the Abdominal Strech.

What!?! Why isn't the Walls of Jericho on this list?? The Walls of Jericho is one of the only submission moves that legitimately hurt. If you don't believe me, go let someone try it on you.

Sorry, but I was never a fan of the Crippler Crossface. It doesn't hurt, doesn't look like it would hurt, and is the easiest to get out of. no offense bro but would you be out able to get out of it if this man had it on you?:  just look at the size of the arms. i doubt (it doesnt) hurt. |

Crossface would be #1 on my list. To those who say it doesn't hurt have someone slap it on you it can stretch the crapout of your neck and shoulder if done right.

Seriously bro, it doesn't hurt. I played football in HS when Benoit first started doing the Crossface Crippler and damn near every football player is a wrestling fan. I had a Middle LB, 225lbs, put me in it because I said it wouldn't hurt. I got out in 2 seconds. Just lay in the position, on your stomach, left arm out to the side and lean back a little bit. I friggin sleep like that sometimes. It hurts more when you don't have someone lifting your face for you. All you have to do is pull your arm out. Or use your other hand to break free. The sweat alone would eff up the grip needed to add any real torque. One of the worst submissions in the history of wrestling. I give more credit to the guys selling the move for him. |

The Sharpshooter was always my favorite submission, always will be.

Walls of Jericho should have so been on there. I also liked when Edge did the Edgecator.

Shamrock Ankle Lock needs more love.
