I just saw a quick video on YouTube showing how sankyo might become irimi-nage.
For whatever reason, sankyo is not going according to plan. Uke tries to spin out of it and clock tori with a cross body elbow. Tori relinquishes sankyo. The secondary (outside hand) comes up to guard against the elbow. At the same time, tori moves closer in away from the force of the strike, and the primary (inside) hand slips up under the elbow and across uke's body to deliver irimi.
It looked rather effective, and the issue of uke spinning out does happen, so I am sure I will get to try this sooner or later.
