submission moves
Joint locks, chokes
Submission moves are techniques in wrestling and martial arts designed to force an opponent to surrender, typically by applying painful joint locks or chokes.
The goal is to make the opponent "tap out"—signal defeat by tapping the mat or their opponent—before injury occurs.
Common submissions include armbars, rear naked chokes, and leg locks.
