Single most iconic/legendary of each of the common submissions?

I'd say Fedor could make this list with three submissions....his armbar on Coleman or on Choi, his kimura on Randleman and ((*Sigh*)) him being triangled by Werdum
 
If you're adding variations of submissions on the list (ex: Triangle Armbar) you might as well add things like Russian Armbar on here.

Don't know if I'd say it's the most legendary, but it's sure fun to watch.
 
My vote for...

Submitting on your stool, goes to BJ PENN against GSP.

TheRassler... where you at motherfucker ?

Rockhold reverse triangling and kimuraing Boetsch at the same time is an alltime great submission.

Maia vs Story RNC

Mir vs Brock kneebar

Jones vs Machida standing guillotine
 
Worthy of a mention is Scott Jorgensen guillotining a fella right off his feet. Forget who the other guy was.
 
Armbar - Ronda's career // Hughes over GSP
Kimura - Mir breaking Nog's arm
Arm Triangle - Lesnar over Carwin
Rear-naked Choke - BJ Penn over Joe Daddy
Guillotine - Werdum over Cain // Chael Sonnen over Shogun
Triangle - ANDERSON SILVA FIFTH FUCKING ROUND OVER SONNEN
Triangle-Armbar - WERDUM OVER FADEOR
Heel Hook - paul Harris vs athletic commission
Kneebar - Frank Mir over Brock
Toe Hold - Frank Mir over whoever

Yeah, that Jones v Machida guillotine was really something. The image of Machida dropping to the floor was at least to me the moment when everyone knew that that division was done.
