Not sure if that's what it's called but it was a fireman's carry but done off of an arm drag grabbing the far leg. You gotta be old like me or young but into retro games to know
 
This dude?

I downloaded a emulator and rom to play the game but I don't have time to figure that out. Maybe I'll look for that game system. Forget what it was called. I was playing that game after graduating high school where I wrestled for two seasons and recall I think it's the old Chinese dude did it and I thought "fancy fireman's carry". Never pulled it off. Kinda advanced.

Lau Chan maybe? Timestamped.

 
It's Lau Chan's grapple, yup. Screenshot from Virtua Fighter on Sega 32x

A similar question i could never answer was that in a WWE magazine in like 2009, Triple H said he started doing the Knee Facebreaker after playing Street Fighter in an arcade and losing to someone spamming that move after which he thought it could be used in wrestling. I don't know of any Street Fighter character doing that. My guess is he meant Tekken because it's King and Armor Kings grapple.

Maybe a variation of Sagat’s knee
 
Jeffrey but they took that away from him in the latest VF.
