underhook
Control from below
An underhook is a wrestling position where you thread your arm under your opponent's arm and secure a grip around their back or torso, giving you leverage and control.
The term appears in wrestling, MMA, and grappling contexts: He fought for the underhook against the cage.
A double underhook means both arms are secured this way.
