Yes, 12-6 elbows to the spine, back of neck, and back of head, along with overhands to the kidneys can really fuck up a wrestlers day when they shoot. That's exactly what I was referring to. This isn't about attacking wrestling. I'm just pointing out that every single style of fighting has weaknesses that can be exploited when survival is the only rule.

I was thinking of this myself. Or how about if you're on top of a BJJ guy trying triangle you or go for an armbar but instead of defending it you decide to use your free hand to gouge their left eye and make them a permanent cyclops? Likewise, when someone has your back, if they don't play nice like in UFC they can simply pound the back of your skull as Big John McCarthy isn't there to say "watch the back of the head!"

As far as weapons go I think a taser might be nice. No skill required and totally non-lethal.

Side note: I often wish UFC would get rid of the rule about kneeing a downed opponent in the head altogether and make it a rule against kneeing or kicking a helpless opponent as determined by the ref and common sense/decency. Sticking 1 or 2 fingertips on the mat when bent at the waist or staying on bended knee as if proposing marriage to your opponent is a candy-ass way to "defend yourself" and just seems so silly. My idea of UFC rules would be: No eye pokes, no groin strikes, no hair pulling. End of rules.
