The torture crab has been around since Rikidozan. Jericho popularized it as the 'Liontamer' in the US. The alteration line also comes off as biased failing to mention that he was performing the move on heavyweights and the number of serious neck injuries occurring at the time.Kokushishin 20:31, 18 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

please add that correctly to the article refrencing what you have said here rather than removing info and just putting the new name in --- Paulley

Anyone heard of a Toehold Half Crab before? If so, please add. jlog3000 (talk) 18:55, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Elevated Boston Crab (with Knee)

A low-importance article to be sure (which I honestly think should be linked into a larger professional wrestling one), but here's by two bits.
I've added ab Elevated Boston Crab section because it is slightly different compared to a Boston Crab. Three examples of Chris Jericho executing an Elevated Boston Crab: Example 1, Example 2, Example 3. Compared to the Liontamer where the opponent is being turned over at an angle.
An example of Jericho using a less-than-elevated version. Compare this with the height achieved from a regular (non-elevated) single-leg Crab used by Matt Striker in the WWE. And here are two other angles as applied by Lance Storm for WCW, Angle 1 and Angle 2. Finally, an animated version as shown by Shawn Michaels. Pakopako (talk) 18:39, 8 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
