The Sharpshooter, originally named Sasori-gatame, Scorpion Hold in English, is a professional wrestling submission hold. The move is similar to several other holds: cloverleaf leg-lace, Boston crab, standing reverse figure-four leglock, and, is also known by several other names, the most commonly known alternative being Scorpion Deathlock. The move was invented by Japanese professional wrestler Riki Choshu, and it was popularized by Sting who mostly does the standing variation rather than the sitting variation, but it is generally associated with Bret "Hitman" Hart, who used the move extensively in his WWF career and gave it the now most commonly used name, the Sharpshooter.
