Crucifix

demonstrated by Masato Yoshino

A type of cradle that stretches the opponent's arms taut by wrapping the attacker's arms around one and legs around the other, thus forcing their shoulder blades flat onto the mat for a pin count. So called because - as in a Crucifix Powerbomb or Crucifix Armbar - the arm position the opponent is forced into resembles a crucifixion.

Can be done from any number of starting places with any variety of exotic flourishes (such as in the image example, or La Casita). Up to & including braining someone with a Crucifix Driver.
