During episode #1881 of (JRE), Rogan told his guest that the Figure-Four lock was a really "dumb" move. Speaking to the Grammy Award-winning producer on the podcast, the commentator stated that WWE legend Ric Flair's signature move was inefficient as it would invite the threat of an inside heel hook: "A bunch of [pro] wrestlers got mad at me... [because] I was trying to explain how dumb a figure-four leg lock was because I was like he was literally giving up an inside heel hook." Watch Joe Rogan talk about the Figure-Four leg lock below: Furthermore, the podcaster explained that an inside heel hook was one of the most dangerous submissions. He elaborated that one will never see an inefficient move such as a Figure-Four leglock used in a jiu-jitsu competition: "Inside heel hook is one of the most devastating submission techniques because once someone gets it the time you have to tap is so small before your knee gets ripped apart and so, a Figure-four leg lock you'll never see in a jiu-jitsu competition... It doesn't work. It's funny in that regard, you know, you are doing this thing [in pro-wrestling] but this thing in the real world is the worst thing you do." Although Rogan is not a big fan of 'Natureboy's' leglocks, he sure is a fan of the WWE legend's signature trash talk. Watch the full podcast below:
