In the main event of RAW last week Kurt Angle used a triangle choke to make to Undertaker tap out. The announcers even correctly identified it as a "jiu-jitsu technique".
Pretty interesting.

I certianly hope this isn't the beginning of a new trend. If they start showing jiu-jitsu moves then it will become less and less likely that I'll be able to suprise someone in a fight.

It took Angle a LONG time to properly execute it. But he also forgot to elevate the hips and pull Undertaker's head down. Hehe details are what mae it work.

Angle probably didn't execute it correctly on purpose. The last thing the WWE needs is more lawsuits from kids trying to pull these maneuvers at home!
As long as the dreaded 'Claw' doesn't make a return (long live the Super Fly) I think we'll be ok. SZ |

WWF, WCW, NWO, WWE its all crap. As for Angle becoming a NHB fighter hed lose. They practice there moves on co-operative people. If it came to a real fight he would know what to do.
I limit my self to watching that crap to 1hr a month.

Fighter, Kurt Angle won TWO gold medals for wrestling at the olympics.
One medal for his weight class and the other in the open/unlimited weight class. He did this with a neck injury at the time. Also, some other former WWF stars that competed in "Real" fighting are Ken Shamrock and Dan Severn. Maybe you've heard of them.
