The Nerve Pinch

   


One man can actually paralyze another by gripping the sensitive nerves at the base of his neck, as  Nagasaki demonstrates on young Barry Windham.  The cowboy is in agony from this Asian's mysterious nerve claw, his right arm stiff and sticking up like a tree branch.


According to the caption, Ole went to Japan to learn how to cripple and destroy a man with the dreaded nerve claws.  He is now using that knowledge to repeatedly dig his fingers into poor Jack Brisco's "weak shoulder muscles."

Here is cruel Kevin Sullivan, one of my favorites, torturing very young Brett Hart's neck muscles.

 The caption says Sullivan "makes full use of his illegal arsenal...  is also an expert in Kung Fu, Karate, and the Occult.   Best weapons are judo chop to the back of the head and nerve holds.?



This Ben Bassarab has an amazing physique!  Too bad Singh has bloodied the stud's face and is now digging deep into his bulging Trapezius muscles.






Wow, this veteran must really be an expert at nerve pinches: he claws the man's left shoulder, which somehow paralyzes the man's right arm!  The victim's own hand curls into the shape of a claw.



Sid Vicious is also able to claw Lugar's right shoulder to disable his left arm.  Check out the excited ref reaching in to feel Lugar's incredible bicep, automatically flexed to the limit thanks to the powerful nerve claw.



This young man is in shock, as if his body is being charged with electrical current.  He can't believe the veteran wrestler is able to take control of the movement of his arm just by gripping the nerves in his shoulder.  The young man's hand is frozen in a claw shape.





"Rock and Roll" Buck Zumhofe looks about ready to fall asleep as this big sweaty brother massages and strokes the nerves in his shoulder.  Come on Buck, don't let this animal put you out with that Nerve Claw!





Peter Maivia from the Pacific Islands was another foreign invader who brought his mysterious knowledge of nerve claws into the ring, where he easily dominated cute American lads like Bob Backlund.

The Von Erich's liked to torture their opponents with Iron Claws, but this time Kerry learns how it feels, as Michael Hayes digs into his shoulder to put him to sleep.  Why is the ref trying to pull Michael's fingers out of Kerry's shoulder??


 
Yet another mysterious Asian grappler, the Great Kabuki, knows how to control a man with nerve pinches.  Is Kabuki also digging into his forehead just to rip him open, or does that forehead claw also paralyze part of the victim's body??
The caption says that the Japanese dude is choking Luis Martinez, but actually I think he is applying the Oriental Nerve Pinch to render Martinez helpless and weak.



These flamboyant white dudes are angry and jealous that the fans love Rocky Johnson. One white dude brutally pinches Johnson's muscular shoulder, while the other patiently waits for his turn to inflict some punishment.

Black Jack Mulligan isn't even trying to beat Jerry Lawler.  Instead, he is getting off on simply digging into the sholder to torture the opponent and inflict "deep pain."
