The Cyclone Of Doom

I just got home from a long weekend of Jujitsu. Every year our dojo throws an awesomely fun camp full of throws, joint locks, grappling, and weapons. Also: getting drunk, eating amazing food, massages, zip lining, and sitting around a fire listening to metal and socializing. At least, that's my idea of awesome. I wrote about my first camp experience (last year) here: Jujitsu Camp: Tomahawks and here: A Very Jujitsu Summer .

This year, even new badassery was introduced in the form of a professional wrestling class. One of the instructors from our dojo modified some of our techniques to look like the techniques used in professional wrestling. So we got to do cool things like choke slams, the boston crab, and a couple of neck crank and piledriver variations.

(The Boston Crab)

After actually learning some cool shit, we got to create our own choreographed fight scenes using some of those techniques, and (of course!) a lot of acting. :) There was screaming and yelling that could be heard in the nearby healing tent and probably farther.

(It may have made their massages slightly less enjoyable.)

There were some really hilarious and cool fight scenes.

(Like this one.)

(And this one.)

(And this one.)

My fight scene was the best! Well, I may be biased. ;) But I think my partner and I came up with a pretty awesome fight.

"Ladies and gentlemen, coming to you from Who-the-hell-knows-or-cares, Wisconsin, The Cyclone of DOOM!" And the crowd goes wild!

She starts off with her signature move, a leaping flying spinning kick right to her opponent's face!

What power and flexibility! "Just Doug" doesn't stand a chance!

But what's this? "Just Doug" comes back with a nasty throw! And Cyclone is flying through the air. She lands hard! Will she be able to recover from such a vicious attack?

This might be it for the Cyclone! Doug is trying to finish her off with a Boston Crab. He has a couple of superb finishers in his bag, so the Cyclone is in real trouble here. She's crawling toward the side, trying desperately to get to the rope to break up the pin. And finally she reaches the rope! But what's this? "Just Doug" is not letting up! The referee has to get involved, now. There's some confusion on the mat. The Cyclone is up and out of the pin but Doug is still arguing with the ref!

While Doug is arguing with the ref, the Cyclone comes up from behind and jumps on his back! She has him in a sleeper hold! But Doug throws her over and breaks the hold, and Cyclone lands hard! She is getting wiped across the floor now. Doug is throwing her over and over! Could this be the end?

Doug comes in one more time for a finishing punch. The Cyclone is winded and bent over. She doesn't look like she can stay on her feet, much less withstand another of Doug's brutal moves. But what's this? Cyclone blocks the punch and throws her opponent in a brutal choke slam! What a surprising turn of events! "The Cyclone of DOOM" looks like she is about to finish him off! She reaches down and... rips out his throat! The crowd jumps up in shock and starts running around screaming and fighting. No one can see what is going on in all the chaos! Was "Just Doug" just murdered right here on the mat?

Well there you have it, folks, "Just Doug" met his end right here on the mat, and the match comes to an end with a throat crush, as all things should!
