English term or phrase: headlock

And he suddenly hears growling, behind him. And he kind of looks round and there's a bloke coming towards him like this going grrrr, grrrr. So I said what did you do? He said so I punched him in the stomach. He has done martial arts, he's a very fit guy. This guy winces slightly, straightens up and goes grrrr, grrrr, and said he was like the terminator here so that nothing was gonna stop this guy. And he suddenly jerked like that grrrr, and then jerked like forty five degrees and went grrrr, and then jerked ninety degrees going grrrr, he said that’s when I spotted the short black bouncer had him in a headlock.

A cytat z Międzynarodowych Przepisów Sędziowskich w zapasach jakby to potwierdza:
\"chwyt tylko za głowę (krawat) wykonywany w jakimkolwiek kierunku jedną lub dwoma rękoma \"

1 hr confidence:

blokujacy uchwyt

Explanation:
nie wiem, jak to dokladnie brzmi w jezyku zapasnikow albo "goryli/wykidajlow", ale jest to chwyt, ktory uniemozliwia jakikolwiek ruch przeciwnika; "atakujacy"stoi za "ofiara" i glowa "ofiary" laduje pomiedzy splecionymi rekami/ramionami napastnika;
opis malo ciekawy, ale uwierz mi, prawdziwy
