After the end of last week's bout between the UCI Tag-team Champions; the Guardians (Polar Phantasm & Bonnie Blue) and their rivals, the Syndicate (represented by David Sanchez & Taylor Wright) a question of professional wrestling ethics has been taken to the UCI b oard of directors.
At the climax of the match: Polar Phantasm submitted to David Sanchez who debuted a new submission hold, seemingly stemming from the Judo fighting style. The Single-Wing Choke, or Kata-ha Jime; referred to in Sanchez' UCI.com bio as the Etorphine Lock or M-99 has been placed under the microscope due to the controversy being brought about by the Mixed-Martial Arts community who state that if this hold is used in a match where both competitors are not wearing Gis, then it is in fact a blatant, and therefore prohibited choke-hold.
As neither Sanchez, nor Phantasm were wearing such an attire it has been highlighted that for the hold to have been as effective as it was then David must have been pressing his forearm against Cameron Bankston's windpipe instead of merely tugging at his clothing to replicate this effect.
After a meeting this morning in Chicago, the controversial mayor had the following to say:
"Who gives a fuck? A submission is a submission, you don't ban Black's Kimura when he actually hurts someone's arm, so get off my fucking back. You do what you have to do in this business to survive and that's all there is to it. My apologies go out to whoever picked up the phone and reported this hold as being suspect; what a sad little life you must lead."
In response, the independent authority on holds acceptable to use in the format of professional wrestling said this:
"If it is indeed found that David Sanchez has used a hold deemed to be a blatant choke in order to win a bout then we do have the power to reverse the decision. Furthermore, we will be enforcing a ban on this move, and any that vaguely resemble it until such a time that a decision on it's ability to be utilized in a safe and responsible manner inside of a wrestling ring has been reached."
