I disagree. If Hansen had extended his left leg following Eddie's somersault and kept Eddie's back on the mat, his only option would've been the thumb escape (Franklin/Lutter) and by that time, Hansen would've taken his arm home with him.
For a visual, watch Sakuraba's armbar on Vernon White from PRIDE 2. If Hansen would've positioned his legs the way Sakuraba did following Vernon's roll, he would've most likely gotten the tap.
