I've always wondered if there was a luchador in México that actually came up with the move. Bret always credited Konnan for teaching him the hold and to be honest, most wrestling moves were invented in México anyways so it wouldn't shock me if Chosu got it from somebody else

El Dandy and Sangre Chicana were not randos
