It just looks like the impact's all on the nads, so shouldn't it be a low blow? Or is the impact supposed to be somewhere that I can't see?

The balls hang down. If you did it real (as in not a sell) it'd knock your voice up an octave

Chris Bosh has a cock punch as a finisher lol, it's called LionCock or something

No more logic!

There's a wrestler called Bosh and his finisher isn't called the Bish Bash Bosh?

Yeah like it's ok to do a Pedigree on the Annoucne Table, cause ya know you just stand there randomly. But seriously it's something that is njust there. The Sleeper Hold is a Choke and shouldn't be legal, yet Legends like Ted Dibiase and Piper used it, and more recently Dolph Ziggler is using it to sometimes end the Match,

Yeah not really, it's a Choke hold.

Please do your research a little more thoroughly. Just repeating that it's a choke hold until your ass bleeds doesn't make it so. A choke hold by definition is a blockage of an airway passage. The sleeper hold blocks off an artery which makes it a blood choke. Blood chokes are legal in professional rasslin'.

Rear naked choke =/= Sleeper hold

Well ain't that funny, I was just thinking of this earlier. My reasoning is that in kayfabe it's a groin shot, as opposed to a direct low blow.

Also, why aren't you allowed to hit your opponents with a closed fist? Surely if you're selling this as a real fight to the kids then grown men wouldn't have any qualms about punching each other full force?

Yeah, it doesn't really make sense that it's ok to kick or knee someone in the face, but not punch
