Which technique ends with a lying side headlock after pulling to the ground?

• A. The Sit Down Sweep
• B. The Shovel Under Escape
• C. The Weave
• D. The Hip Push Escape

Answer: (B)

This question tests how a specific ground escape finishes in a particular control position. The shovel under escape is built to pull the opponent to the ground while you secure a grip that guides you into a lying side headlock. By placing a shovel-like grip under the opponent’s arm and using your hips and body weight to roll to your side, you trap their head with your near arm and press their neck against your side. That combination naturally ends with you on the ground in a lying side headlock, ready to control and limit their movement. The other options lead to different end positions. A sit-down sweep typically finishes with you coming up on top or transitioning to a positional advantage rather than maintaining a headlock on the ground. The weave is about threading underhooks to recover guard or shift to a different control without ending in a lying side headlock. The hip push escape creates space to stand or recompose, not a finished headlock on the ground.
