hmmm mayb i'm getting it wrong
is shuai chiao referring to all chiense wrestling styles

i keep thinking its the name for that famous wrestler tang...forgotten his name.

shuai chiao is a stand up grappling based style. there are others such as dog boxing (a ground fighting style) which can be considered wrestling. i think there is another one called tai shing pek war or something like that. pretty sure a board member or two study it.
chang, tung sheng is the famous fighter you are referring to.

tai shin pek kwar,that monkey oriented style is not so grappling oriented I think.
Plenty can probably be found as usual but not necessarily like that.
I´ll pass the ball for tai shin ppl.

IMHO, Dog Boxing isn't that much of a grappling style, rather a "fighting from the ground style"...THEY do have a stand-up game, and quite a good one I have to say...but they get really dangerous on the ground, where striking FROM the ground (even to a standing opponent) is as much important as qinna or projection techniques (also from the ground).
Dog boxing is awesome...after having seen it, I truly understood the statement of a white crane master who said "the best thing to do against a good dog boxer is stay away and throw things at him" LOL
