Catch-as-Catch-can Wrestling is without a doubt the Grand-DADDY of ALL Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). When Your Grandpa needed to take someone down, or bend a guys arm too or... past the breaking point, he didn't use Brazilian Jujitsu, he used Catch Wrestling!
The history of Catch Wrestling is as “rough and tumble” as the sport and the wrestlers themselves. The true No-Holds-Barred matches in the wild American frontier, the back alley street fights in England, and the hard life of a "take all challengers" carnival wrestler. Not only did you need to know how to pin a man, you had to KNOW how to how to apply locks and holds that made your opponent SCREAM uncle, AND have the conditioning to do it over and over again in the SAME night.
Holds like the “chicken wing”, the double-wrist lock, step over toe-hold, Boston crab, and crooked head scissor to name a few of THOUSANDS of bone crunching finishers, holds you might have only thought worked in the fixed world of Pro-Wrestling, are now being openly taught to men and women of today, ready to carry the torch of this true combat sport and slap on the same holds of yesteryear on new and unsuspecting opponents who will now
need to re-think what they only THOUGHT they knew about wrestling!
