Okay all you pro wrestling guru's out there I have a question that I already know the answer (because I know most of what needs to be known about Bret Hart's career) and I will give 10 points to the first person who answers it correctly. Here we go, "Who originally taught Bret Hart the Sharpshooter?" I will tell you right now, no it is not Stu Hart or any member of the Hart family. The Sharpshooter, or how it is originally known as the Scorpian Death Lock, has been around way before either Bret Hart or Sting ever thought of using it. So who taught him it? Good luck.

Konnan. Konnan does not normally use the Sharpshooter, despite having taught it to Bret Hart.
look at Wikipedia. On the DVD "The Best There Is...The Best There Was...The Best That There Ever Will Be", Bret Hart states that Konnan originally taught him the Sharpshooter

This hold was first popularized by New Japan Pro Wrestling star Riki Choshu, who called it the Sasori-gatame (Scorpion hold).
In North America, it was first popularized by Sting in the National Wrestling Alliance and later World Championship Wrestling, under the name Scorpion Deathlock.
The move's most popular name in North America, Sharpshooter, was made popular by the World Wrestling Federation star Bret "The Hitman" Hart. On the DVD "The Best There Is...The Best There Was...The Best That There Ever Will Be", Bret Hart states that Konnan originally taught him the Sharpshooter.

It is also notable that Hart originally referred to the move as the "Scorpion Deathlock" when he initially asked Konnan to show him how to apply it (according to his 2005 DVD).
