Yep. As much as many proponents want to claim Sambo as a unique art a good 2/3 if not more is identical to the Judo it comes from, even down to many of the rules used in competitions. Just because they allow leg locks and have an extra grip on the shoulders of the jacket/kurtka (Sambo's gi) does not make it some new fresh faced art. A fun ruleset sure, but wholly unique? No.

Catch wrestling is basically freestyle with submissions

[@VikingMale]

And toe holds, lower leg breaking, and a lot of other crippling maneuvers.

[@ViralHitHobinYoo]

​@@VikingMaleas i said, submissions

[@dannydonnelly8198]

Not entirely accurate. American folk style is catch wresting without submissions, not freestyle. In both catch wrestling and American folk style the wrestlers remain on the ground after a takedown until the end of a period or until there is a pin (or a submission in a catch match), or if the downed wrestler escapes to their feet. You only have a few seconds to score on the ground after a takedown in Freestyle and Greco until the ref resets the wrestlers in neutral.

[@xxFairestxx]

I’m a CACC coach for Snakepit USA. This is incorrect. Due to the lack of submissions, many of the positions, transitions, rides, and pins changed because the threat of a submission is not present. Freestyle developed augmented technique systems that were more efficient under the rule set. However, add back in the submissions and it’s a different game entirely. I get freestyle wrestlers in my class all the time, all various backgrounds. They may have the wrestling mentality, but teaching them submission techniques does not make them Catch wrestlers.

I think it's not surprising many cultures developed some kind of wrestling. It allows men to compete in order to show off their strength and skill against eachother, but without today's medicine it would've been relatively safer than a striking match.

There are two versions of bökh wrestling. One version is the traditional/classic (general) bökh, which can also be seen in the video.

[@bre4kd0wn1]

Maybe for part 2? There is also Gulat Benjang, literally means Benjang Wrestling, which originated from Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. It's basically shirtless wrestling with few Judo rules, but the wrestler who does a takedown without following the opponent to the ground scores you more point than doing a takedown with you following to the ground. You must also not expose your shoulders to the sky or the ceiling, so techniques like suplex and gutwrench would give the opponent point instead of the one doing the technique. One other thing that makes Benjang Wrestling unique is that it is also accompanied by Sundanese drum plays.

The references for this can be found in numerous books referencing their invasions and subsequent establishments of schools, churches, monasteries etc. The wrestling I specifically made mention of is due to what I found interesting in the few books I could find that included writings of their military culture was how grappling was both combative and recreational.
