How about breaking the other guy's neck (in a way that you can actually do it...none of this BS hollywood ninja "I'll twist your neck sideways really fast") in a full nelson?

Or a sleeper hold?

I say:
Yes, that is possible, but the way they train to execute the moves. When in an emergency. reaction only situation, your body will execute the moves you have learned to the point you have learned them, meaning if you don't practice to disable, you won't when the emergency happens when you need to.

What good is grappling a man to the ground, gaining back, or side control, and then being stuck in a position where you can't finish them and they are pummeling your ears and nose into mush?

This is why I say the true self defense intrested person would learn a combination of all skills, since the UFC has proven that NO one style covers all necessities and possibilities.

I feel truly, that Greco Roman wrestling is far superior in lethality to American Wrestling, based only on its taught arsenal of moves, and techniques.
