I overheard some guys at my gym talking about it had been used for many years in Wrestling but under a different name.
That true?
he never invented it and has ALWAYS been on record saying that. He wrestled in high school and that is where he learned it, as in wrestling its called the guillotine. He pulled it off in front of Rigan one day rolling and adding the extra refinement for the submission variation we know as the twister and RIGAN is the one that named it that. Eddie told him its called the guillotine and Rigan said nope, we already have something named that so this is now the twister! Its how Eddie got the nickname as well.
yup.
in wrestling it's called a guillotine.
Eddie didn't invent it per se. He did however invent no gi training.
