Is there a way out of the Cobra lock?

Question

I come from a wrestling family. For generations we have been wrestlers, and tricks and moves are passed down from father to son. My dad taught me the cobra lock. It used to be my grand dad's favourite move. He won a championship with it. Dad told me that there's no way out of it. I tried it only a few times, mostly with bigger and stronger guys, but never seen anyone managing to get out of it. The technique involves crossing your lower arm around the guy’s neck and locking with the palms. Usually people chokes and pass out in seconds. Some tried brute force, but then a knee in the back subside them quickly.

My best friend and i tried this one recently. A backwards kick will do the trick. I speak from painful experience!

A really loud tap out on the mat usually does the trick.
