In wrestling its set up from the back control as well.. and sometimes people figure four their legs and other times they just use one extended leg.. you also wrap your hands around their head and crank like a mother just the same(except you're cranking so both shoulders meet the mat). Its the same exact move.. hurts like a bitch(I've seen refs give the pin to something that is questionable just to save the other from injury)
Eddie has given props to the move plenty.. and has introduced other entries.. and other options etc.. which are awesome. But what you just described is identical to the wrestling version. Now if you introduced it as entering from twister side etc.. that entrance would never happen in wrestling lol.
As far as what Bruce said.. i'm sure 95% of the forum know what inspired the twister.. no worries on that front. wrestling gets credit.. lol..
