Let's say a kid runs a cross face and the kid on bottom gets his up and the arm catchs the neck an looks like a choke but have control of shoulder tricep is it enough to stop a match or even in the practice room. Can someone give clarification on that. Thanks

I understand wrapping the neck is illegal

From what you are describing, I do not think that an official or coach would stop this in a match. Possibly in the practice room, depending on how practice is ran.

"Looking like a choke, but still having control of the shoulder tricep" is legal. I have seen kids get scared or claustrophobic and scream at the top of their lungs they can't breath. Well if the kid is screaming or talking, he can breath and it is not a choke. For the most part if the wrestler has an arm it is fine.
There are some front headlock situations that need to be closely monitored, but most officials will be looking for this.
