Depending on who you ask, they'd tell you Gerald Brisco or Vince Russo or even Vince himself came up with it but in his book, Heartbreak & Triumph, Hunter's real-life best friend HBK claims that it was HHH who first pitched the idea. Not many facts are known about the incident but I doubt the man who was in the ring with Hart that fateful night would lie about such a thing.
