303 Front Chancery |
|
|
The Front Chancery is a controlling headlock where you hook
your close arm under his chin, reach your far arm behind his neck, and lock
your fingers to form a vice around his throat. He is totally at your
mercy when you get this locked on! |
|
The British wrestlers love using this hold,
but why the hell is it called a "Chancery," which is the name for
a court of law in England?? According to Dictionary.com, "To hold in Chancery: to get the head of an antagonist under one's arm; hence, to have wholly in One's power. The allusion is to the condition of a person involved in the chancery court, where he was helpless, while the lawyers lived upon his estate." |

This kneeling stud is wearing some pretty sexy tights as
he suffers in a variation of the Front Chancery. The man trying to choke
him out grips his left wrist rather than inter-locking his fingers. |
If you clamp your wrists tightly on the sides of the opponent's
neck, the Chancery can also be a variation of the sleeper hold, as this long
haired dude demonstrates on the stud in red workout pants. |

This guy patienly waits for his opponent to go limp and
collapse to the mat. He knows what effect this tight neck vice is
having on his kneeling victim. |
