Default Cool Hold - unknown artist, unknown site

Unrealistic for any kind of IRL wrestling, it sure looks cool. The only thing I would add would be her feet behind his neck pressing his head down.

Anyone know who the artist is and what site it might have come from? I found it in one of my ramblings around the web. I'm always on the lookout for unique wrestling holds or positions.

It's called a "Tarantula" hold, famously used by Japanese pro wrestler Tajiri, as well as a few female wrestlers. Sort of a rope-hanging Boston crab.

Name of the artist is Megaween, on deviantart.com. I commissioned this as part of a set a while back, that's how I know, haha.

thanks drrty dawg69. My congratulations to you for commissioning such a superb bit of artwork. The hold is exquisite and in truth I never would have thought it was possible to apply. But if anyone could, it would be the Japanese.

Obviously my mind is starting to go. LOL. I didn't remember seeing them on the thread you referenced.

Thanks again.
