The most surprising thing I got from this video was that he was originally against working with Curt Hennig. Why? Those two had excellent chemistry from their singles matches on the house show circuit in 1989.

The original name of the hold is sasori-gatame which translates to scorpion hold in English

I always was interested how each wrestler took some lil move from someone else and made it their own.

Most notably rocks scott hall punches
Or harley having every wrestler doing headbutts to dynamite kid to benoit to danielson
Or undertaker taking the rope spot from that old wrestler.

Undertaker walk the ropes one of the goat repurposed moves

Yea that stood out to me too but I think Bret was just nervous and felt he wasn’t ready because he went on record a few times saying Perfect was his favorite opponent :ehh:

I know Bret made this a meme but no joke, Dandy was a :whoo: wrestler. We really shouldn't be doubting him :wow:

El Dandy always seemed like a guy who could fight in real life. A part of me always wished he was put in the mix with Regal & Finley.
100% He is a legend for this alone

Clearly no one, that's why he sucks at it.
Even the Here Comes the Pain video game knew The Rock’s Sharpshooter sucked. You could never get a submission with it. At least I couldn’t. I’d be The Rock in career mode and see I was in a submission match and literally hit the :beli: .

WWE recognizes Choshu as the inventor of the move, so y'all know that makes it OFFICIAL HISTORY™
