Maynard James Keenan sure loves beating dead horses. Yesterday (March 31st), the Tool, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer frontman, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu brown belt, noted vintner and notorious prankster beat the dead horse that is Will Smith's Oscar slap of Chris Rock by demonstrating a martial arts technique he dubbed the "Cuck Block." (As we pointed out then, Cuck, of course, is short for cuckhold, a term for a man whose wife is having sex with other men, and one that has been repeatedly directed at Smith since he and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, went public about their open relationship last year.)

Today (fittingly, April 1st, a.k.a. April Fool's Day), in a new Instagram video filmed at Verde Valley Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Keenan continued his self-defense lesson with a different technique that might have helped Chris Rock had the Fresh Prince followed up his slap with a headlock. The name of this new technique? The "Cuck Hold." Watch below.
