In Chinese wrestling, this move is called "捆 (Kun) - Tie". Does this move exist in Judo, western wrestling, or BJJ? What's the name used?

Your thought?

Looks kind of like a variant of the cradle in wrestling.

In Hapkido we would just plant our right leg, swing our left leg back, and use pressure on the elbow to force the take-down. The left leg swinging back generates an enormous amount of pressure.

Do you have any clip to share?

It looks very similar to what was called a helper throw by my high school wrestling coach. If your opponent was often aggressive and stalking low or even shooting, you would 'help' them to the ground (takedown) mostly with the right arm, hip roll, and your weight driving them to the ground while you controlled the left arm. This or similar variations are pretty common in wrestling.

The key difference between what you describe and what I see in the clip, is the focus on the opponent's feet. The right leg is sweeping the left foot, and then the hand goes down to the right ankle to further trip them.
