It turns out that the awesome physicist Neil Tyson Degrasse was a collegiate wrestler well into his PhD. He invented his own wrestling hold based on his studies of cosmic physics - The Double Tidal Lock, explained here by the man himself.

I request that we ask Dr. Degrasse to run a session at MAP Meet. Not only would it be awesome - he would attract a lot of money for charity. I would pay serious money for a wrestling/physics class from him! This vid is at Iowa Uni too which is a premier american wrestling college
no, he wrestled for harvard the video above his him demonstrating physics with wrestling at a guest lecture in iowa uni
wow. i already had a ton of respect for the guy for the way he eloquently defends science and reason. but then i saw his wrestling picture. damn man!
