i got something to ask, when you're in a finishing submission hold and it's supposed to be a very lethal hold....who tells a guy when he goes down to the sleeper hold that after you are put to sleep that it's ok not to sell the hold but jump up and go back to fighting? im sorry tna needs a major overhaul...when i was a kid len rossi , verne gagne, ken lucas used the sleeper hold and after their opponent was put to sleep they woke the person up for fear of brain injury -and here you are on tna not selling the hold? whoever trained the guy didnt teach them how to sell apparently...even taz , the announcer had to cover for the mistake by saying joe must not had the hold on well.. if youre not gonna sell a hold why have the match? i enjoy wrestling it's fun but i watch 10 minutes a week and im done

No one really had to say anything. Selling a hold was what put the hold over. Selling was what I enjoyed the most. Every promoter I ever worked for told me to be more aggressive when I was wrestling, but I loved to sell. Dick Steinborn was the best I ever saw or was in the ring with. He made his matches by selling his opponents moves. As far as the sleeper is concerned it is supposed to cut off blood flow to the brain thereby causing unconsciousness. If anyone has ever been put to sleep by someone who knows how to do it, you have no problem selling it. Timothy Goehagen showed me how it worked and I had the privilege of working with him later in my career and trust me, I put that hold over. Todays guys have no clue. Selling is a lost art. Three suplexes, jump off the top of the building, and they are no worse for the wear......
I am evidently reaching to the choir as you seem to agree...
