Mike....
For the hypothetical you pose, I think Mike Eiermann's tech tues kinda addresses what you bring up. I think you are more or less eluding to a scramble starting. Check it out as maybe it addresses your question. You can break Eiermann's scramble roll.

AC,

If he sprawls and you start to have your head driven into the mat, dunk the guy just as he does. You don't absolutely need to "ring his bell" to pull this off. Just be quick with the dump or bow and pop the head out, bust the cradle. Alternatively, you rip the corner hard and finish ala sweep single. If ya miss it you're back to neutral and didn't sit in a crackdown for half a period fighting. I like this a lot b/c very often does one get caught underneath trying to fight up to a double.

should they be leaning into you to hit this technique? It seems if you cant pull him fully over he will sprawl your face right into the mat.

I think when you get the feeling of being akward in real time if you take the bow as he suggested you can use their momentum against them and put them on a hip. Then its just attacking the cradle. Ill have to play with it, but in my mind thats how it seems.

another question, he seems to stress the idea that when hes at the start of the finishing position you can slightly relax and stay on your knees. so lets say you go and "ring his bell and the defensive wrestler starts running around the corner? in the video the defensive wrestler started cutting the corner once he was in the air, so if he attempted to cut the corner before he was in the air, wouldt you be in a very akward position like, grabbing his leg with you entire body faced towards the right f his body?

question, when he hits his style of the hi c he ends up almost like in a duck under position, kind of a duck with the leg but his left shoulder is not in his inside thigh its more in on the out side ahd hes on both of his knees. and his finish he always has his hips in real tight and still both knees on the ground. no he didnt seem to show how he goes fromhaving his dhouler on the outside of the thigh(leg) to having his hips in and hands around the ankle. now yes im sure somone may say well you just move there but isnt that to much time being on your legs? this was very hard explaining lol
