i currently do mma, but im looking for a good grappling art to compliment it.

I was thinking between judo and jujitsu, and was even considering greco roman wrestling. What would be the best here.
 
Scott D - I stopped reading your answer when you said Judo and Greco Roman are not grappling arts. You either have your definitions of grappling messed up or really lack experience in either arts.

Judo is great for MMA so is BJJ and greco roman. All 3 are currently in use by popular MMA fighters in one way or another. Obviously, all of these will need to be adapted to deal with the no-gi, and striking aspects of the cage.

Judo and BJJ both have subs.

Best way to see what art works best for you is to take sample classes for each one and see which you are more built for, then make a decision from there.

Heres a cool vid on the subject by a Judo MMA fighter:
