Did I just add you to my myspace? lol. "Peterson King".

I believe it came from Ben and John Perterson who wrestled in the 70s

Elbow him in the peter son :-o :roll:

Yes it was named after them.  Both were Olympic Champions and Silver Medalists.  Ironically they were both beaten by the same man in the Olympic finals.  They are both very kind men as well.  I had the opportunity to meet and eat lunch with them while at the Olympic Trials in 2004 (they didn't sit down because of me lol, but because I was with Coach Carr).

They are on the list of the top wrestling families. 

Yes, specifically it is named after Ben Peterson although according to him he did not invent it but did use the move very effectively and came to be known for it so it stuck with his name attached to it.  There was an article a year or two ago in Wrestling USA in which he discussed the moves origins.

i believe i'm the peterson king d.j i've hit more than twice as many as you in a match

How about the Churella? Which one was it named after?

Maybe a guy named Churella. 

Maybe a guy named Churella. 

im gona invent a move so i can name it after myself

oh and if anyone knows how to change my stats i dont appreciate being called JV

I think it is determined by posts count, log on time, etc. Don't take offense. lol

YEA I LOVE DAVID LEIBRUM :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D lol

One of my favorite moves in freestyle was the Kendall Cross, obviously named after Kendall Cross.

I use to do another move in freestyle that nobody really had seen much of or what to call it, so it was of course named the mousetrap.
