Didn't Thesz also accidentally invent the piledriver by botching a powerbomb?

I think it was more he just dropped a dude on his neck as opposed to sat down with it, but it seems to be the inspiration if you go by Japanese video game move naming conventions. He might have invented the backdrop driver as well. Thesz da gawd :salute:

Idk what happened to it, but I definitely had a gif of Lou killing someone with a backdrop in the 50s.
