Bash513 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Jon Felty Graduated from Hobart in 2001 and used a moved coined the "Felty Switch" He would give an opponant his front leg on a shot then reach inside and switch them while facing them. I know this sounds strange but it worked for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GATORSDAD Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Jerry Jackson La Porte the best side headlock I ever seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinedad Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Jacob Tonte, headlock, from anywhere, at any time, once you get in it, you are not getting out of it. The kid has the best headlock I have ever seen. Have seen him lock it up while he was on his back, and then get the fall with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midget5589 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 dallas hesseltine from portage had a good quick spladle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~B~DOGG~SMASH~ Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 If the headlock goes to anyone, it would be Robert Miller of Lawrence North. I've never seen anyone with one better. And I've been around Indiana wrestling since 1983. I know Cook from PM has a nasty cradle, two others come to mind also. Brian Johnson (BG) & Hugh Waddington (LN). Spence Spencer (LN) used to have a nasty one also. His duck under was mean also. Lance Ellis's (Cath) over hook throw, if you didn't go to your back. Your face would become one with mat. Case Hooper (LN) had the meanest front quarter. Very few will remember this one, but Andre Tedder (LC) might of had one of the best spladles ever. Toby Turner (Monrovia) had legs that would break you in half. Deron Phillips (SB LaSalle???) had a duck under into a near side cradle that was pretty sweet. Cashe`s (LN)head smashing. Andy Trevino (Calumet) had an awesome double leg, as did Todd Sackksteder (Franklin County). Kelvin Jackson's (AH) unbelieveable speed. I could go all day.

0341 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Eric Fisher's spladle early 90's @ Southside along with Abbott's headlock and Foreman's double leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiralride1 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 headlock- Kinser...saw a few NASTY ones in his matches at IU. TOTALFOCUS, What is an Iranian? Cousin to a Russian? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 An Iranian is where you shoot a double, and your head ends up on the inside after the sprawl. As you come up from under, you bring one leg downward and the other leg you toss up and over to the side of the leg that you brought downward. Someone else might be able to put this in words better than I did, but you get the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewboy78 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 B DOGG SMASH Haha...I was thinkin of listing Deron Philips duck into the near side cradle, but didn't know if anyone one else would have remembered it until I saw your post. The fact that anybody remembers that from a great wrestler of a now defunct (generally lacking) program says how memorable it was. That was "Signature"!!! Rode that move all the way to a State Title. So signature he gave it a name....The Chilly Philly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naco228 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Howe is probably one of the best offensive wreslters ever. His simple double-leg takedown was his bread n butter Thats what he did. Took ya down time after time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnome Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Andy Uhl had the best side headlock I've ever seen. Not only did he it on Andrae in the semi finals at Conseco, he used it to win a national championship back in 2005. Pure nasty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
