A submission hold made famous by WWE Hall of Famer Bob Backlund and currently used by WWE wrestler Asuka (which she calls the Asuka Lock), All Elite Wrestling wrestler Frankie Kazarian, and indie wrestler Marty Scurll.
To execute this move, the wrestler first performs the chickenwing to one of the opponent's arms. He then takes his other arms, wraps it around the opponent's neck, and then either pulls the wrestler's head to the side which puts pressure on the neck and shoulders or leaves the arm tucked under the chin as in a one-armed sleeper hold. Depending on the wrestler's preference, he may clasp his hands together to secure the hold. In many cases, the wrestler will drop to the mat and lock the opponent in a bodyscissor lock to make escape even more difficult.
