It's like when people are in a submission hold and the referee is knocked out and they start tapping out.

Like you better tap out immediately.

If the referee isn't in the ring, tap out as soon as that hold is put on.

Because if you could get the person to release it,

then the hold's not on you anymore.

You're not going to break your calf.

I, if anything, am sitting there befuddled that AJ Styles would release a hold because he felt a tap and not because a referee acknowledged the tap.

That's when you release a hold when a referee tells you to release the hold because the referee acknowledges the tap.

Gunther tapped out AJ Styles.

I think he tapped out two AJ Styles.

I think he knew exactly where he was tapping.

I think he knew exactly what he was doing.

I think he knew that, look, there are multiple levels to this game.

And I'm in the middle of the ring right now.

And AJ Styles is one of the best to ever do it.

I'm not getting out of this calf crusher.

Yep.

I'm not getting out of this thing.

And I've had just about as much as I can take.

Is there a way to politely ask him to release the hold and then maybe I'll be okay?
