nodowa otoshi in Japanese[edit]

Is there any particular reason why the Japanese translation of this term is listed in the heading? Bullofconfusion (talk) 06:59, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of the Chokeslam[edit]

I'm very certain that Giant Baba was the originator but I don't want to edit/add it without enough assurance.67.82.13.55 01:58, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well that is true, but the true popularizer of the chokeslam was sid justice. MDE

False. The Chokeslam was first recorded to be used in a wrestling match by, of all people, Abraham Lincoln, in a match against Jack Armstrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.45.58.157 (talk) 05:49, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

other chokeslams[edit]

The Big Show doesn't do a regular standing chokeslam, when he does it he drops to his knees, just wanted to bring it up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gale6d9 (talk • contribs) 14:52, 12 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sitout Chokeslam[edit]

This variation is gaining popularity and should be added. Basically you get them up for a chokeslam, then you drop them down beside you as you drop to your arse. This one has generally been popularized by an Independent wrestler called Damian Davies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.15.101.71 (talk) 22:27, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely no mention of jumping[edit]

This article mentions nothing about that the opponent 'jumps' into the chokeslam but that they are 'lifted up'. This is not true - they jump into it! Think it should be integrated.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.29.91.115 (talk) 15:10, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
