Professional wrestling holds
Pins
Cover
The basic pin. With his opponent lying face-up on the mat, the wrestler lies face-down across his opponent's chest to hold him down.
Cradle
The wrestler lies across his opponent's chest and hooks a leg with the arm on the opposite side (the left leg with the right arm or the right leg with the left arm). Holding the leg supposedly gives the wrestler greater leverage and makes it harder for his opponent to kick out.
