A Package piledriver is almost the same as a Texas piledriver, but instead of grabbing the waist of the opponent, the wrestler puts their arms underneath the opponent's arms and grabs their legs by the knees. The wrestler then stands up, lifting the opponent until they are upside down, and drops to a sitting position with the opponent's head between their thighs.

An arm butterfly variation was popularized by independent wrestler Kevin Steen. Japanese female wrestler Aja Kong can be seen using it at least a decade ago, notably in her classic match with Manami Toyota on March 26, 1995 in All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling (Zenjo).

Package Tombstone Piledriver[]

This variation sees the wrestler place their opponent in a Tombstone Piledriver position but instead of hooking the waist of the opponent the wrestler hooks their opponents legs and drops to their knees like a standard Tombstone Piledriver.
