8月 26, 1886, エヴァン “ラングラー” ルイスはシンシナティで英国のレスリングチャンピオントム·キャノンに会った, オハイオ州. 正当なレスリング時代, 他の力士は、彼のために締め付けの強力なルイスを恐れ.

ルイスは柔道で裸絞として知られている頸動脈ストラングルを採用. 少なくともそれは私が当初考えていたものであり、ほとんどの歴史家は引用しています. 現代のプロレスラーは似たようなホールドを使用しています, しかし合法ではありません, スリーパーホールドと呼ばれる. 首の周りの腕が狭すぎて窒息できないため、適切な窒息のために手が頭の後ろではなく頭の上にある.

実際に, ルイスは前面ロックに似たギロチンチョークを使用しましたが、腕は頸動脈を絞めました. I discovered Lewis used a guillotine, 新聞で彼の恐れられたホールドを示すイラストを見つけたとき.

Some wrestlers, like Sorakichi Matsuda, refused to wrestle Lewis unless the stranglehold was banned. Lewis was a skilled “hooker”, a professional wrestler specializing in submission holds. Matsuda nearly had his leg broken by Lewis, who was enraged by the banning of his pet hold.

William Muldoon wrestled Lewis a couple of times but after a legitimate draw avoided a rematch with Lewis. The men met in Muldoon’s final match as a professional wrestler. This last match seemed prearranged.

When Lewis met Tom Cannon, Lewis was not in the mood to cooperate. The legitimate contest ended after only two falls even though it was scheduled as a best three out of five falls match.

Cannon would claim the World Title in 1901 and battled George Hackenschmidt in his prime. Cannon was a capable wrestler and actually beat Lewis for the first fall.

Cannon kept pushing Lewis away every time that Lewis tried to secure his stranglehold. During a moment of frustration, Lewis lost concentration. Cannon threw Lewis for a flying fall at 4 分、 30 秒. 男性は休ま 15 minutes which continued to roil Lewis. “ラングラー” would not be denied in the second fall.

The men tied up again with Cannon constantly on the defensive against the continuing attempts of Lewis to grab a stranglehold. At 9 minutes into the second fall, Lewis finally secured the stranglehold.

後部の裸のチョークは数秒で無意識をもたらす可能性がありますが、ギロチンチョークは通常、それが本当にきつくない限り、より長くかかります. ルイスがかかった 30 seconds to fell Cannon. Cannon fell to the floor with Lewis on his back but the referee was slow to call the fall in Lewis’ favor. Lewis held onto the hold until the referee declared him the winner.

The stranglehold is only dangerous if it is held on for a while after the opponent has lost consciousness. The referee’s slow decision caused Lewis to apply the hold longer than he needed to. Cannon was still dizzy and unable to continue the match.

Lewis was awarded the match by forfeit. Cannon’s second Jimmy Faulkner offered to wrestle Lewis, if Lewis would not use the stranglehold. Lewis laughed at Faulkner and said he didn’t beat people up for free, so Faulkner should raise the proper side purse to face Lewis.

Lewis took the $200 side purse and prepared for his next bout. Cannon was spitting up blood and remained faint for about an hour after the bout. Lucky for Cannon he did not make “ラングラー” mad or it could have been worse.
