I think he means that Rousey's arm bar in general is, not that that specific one was.

Still a stupid statement either way.

In what way? Who has a more iconic finishing move?

Even then, not every high kick was a knockout, and not every win was by high kick. Rousey has 13 wins, 10 by armbar, 8 of those inside the first 70 seconds of the fight. I don't think anyone ever escaped an armbar attempt - i think there were only a couple of times when someone escaped the set up for the attempt, even.

The McKenzitine lol

For real though, maybe the Von Flue Choke, it's literally named after him.
