에반 루이스’ 목 조르기

This post was formally a podcast broadcast in 2015. 이 에피소드에서, I discuss what Evan “교 살자” 무거운 돌덩이 따위를 끌어 올리고 내리는 쇠 집게’ hold would be called today.

주요 내용 – When I first heard of the stranglehold or “hang hold” of Evan “The Strangler” Lewis, it sounded like a guillotine choke. 그러나, several sources I checked described it as a rear naked choke.

Lewis was greatly feared due to the effects of the stranglehold. Some wrestlers’ necks were injured, while several were unable to continue their matches. Some had visible red rings around their necks. I was surprised by this description because the rear naked choke is very safe for the most part.

The trouble is Lewis retired before film captured professional wrestling. Lewis’s image is available in a few posed photographs but only a couple artist renderings exist of his matches. None of these renderings illustrated Lewis’ hold.

Until I discovered the February 2, 1890 의 판 Pittsburgh Dispatch (Pittsburgh, PA). In an article extolling the virtues of wrestling as a method of self-defense, the illustrator for the article included an illustration of the Stranglehold.

And it was…the guillotine choke. Suddenly, the damage Lewis inflicted on his opponents made sense. With a guillotine you can put pressure on both the carotid artery and/or the windpipe.

I recently completed Evan “The Strangler” Lewis: The Most Feared Wrestler of the 19^제 Century which examines his career and many battles in great detail. Lewis was professional wrestling’s first villain mainly due the fearsome reputation of the stranglehold.

무거운 돌덩이 따위를 끌어 올리고 내리는 쇠 집게’ 평판은 정말 때문에 초기에 시카고 Sorakichi Matsada와 그의 두 경기 시리즈에 불길한 회전을했다 1886. 루이스는 거의 "목 졸라 죽인 후” 월 죽음 Sorakichi 1886, the stranglehold was banned. 루이스는 더욱 손상 홀드 Sorakichi Matsada에 자신의 좌절감을 꺼내서.

I will let the reader decide if Lewis was a villain, misunderstood or somewhere in-between.
