Rikishi (Afrojoe) is making his way to the ring waving his butt towards the cameras. The crowd seem like they are really looking forward to this match.
We hear the car crashing and out comes Mankind (IB). Chants of ‘Foley, Foley’ can be heard all around the arena. It’s deafening.
We are in for a cracker! Mankind will want to keep control over Rikishi because Rikishi will use his extra weight to his advantage and once Rikishi is in control, there may be no way back.
The bell rings and this match is underway. Mankind (IB) does not want to get into a fistfight with Rikishi (Afrojoe) so this is a tentative start by Mankind. Mankind charges at Rikishi! This is suicide! Rikishi swings… misses! Mankind slides through the legs, Chop block on the back of Rikishi’s leg! This is a classic attack. Take the big guy off his feet.
Rikishi is on the mat and Mankind is working on the leg. He is really turning up the pressure on that leg. Rikishi is slowly crawling to the ropes. The ref is busy checking on Rikishi. What is Mankind up to? HE’S BITING HIS LEG! We all know Mankind is sick but this is ridiculous!
Rikishi (Afrojoe) is screaming in pain but manages to reach the ropes. Mankind (IB) releases his grip on the leg and Rikishi crawls into the corner. Mankind charges… Running knee to Rikishi’s face. Mankind has done a lot of damage early. Mankind is unrelenting and stomps on Rikishi in the corner. Rikishi can only roll out of the ring and try to salvage something from this match.
Mankind immediately follows Rikishi outside. Rikishi is struggling to stand. Mankind with Rikishi’s head… SMACK! Straight off the announcers table. Followed by another. Then another. A third… NO! Rikishi blocks and Mankind’s head bounces off the table.
Rikishi (Afrojoe) has to take control. He does so by whipping Mankind (IB) into the steps. Mankind does his customary screams. Rikishi hobbles over and slams Mankind on the security barrier. Rikishi throws Mankind back into the ring. Rikishi slowly gets in the ring. Mankind is back up and runs off the ropes. SAMOAN DROP BY RIKISHI! Cover… 1… 2… KICK OUT! No real problem there.
Mankind is first up due to Rikishi’s injury and attempts to grab hold of the leg. Rikishi throws him off but Mankind attacks again. Rikishi throws him off again and checks his leg. Mankind again… DOUBLE ARM DDT! COVER! THIS SHOULD BE IT! 1… 2… SHOULDER UP! Rikishi could not kick out but managed a shoulder off the mat.
Mankind (IB) is unrelenting and attacks the leg again. Rikishi (Afrojoe) quickly hits Mankind with a few shots to the head and uses the ropes to get to his feet. Mankind goes for another attack on the leg; Rikishi picks up Mankind and slams him to the ground! Rikishi drags Mankind to the corner. He wants to finish it now! He slowly climbs the turnbuckle. He’s looking for the Banzai Drop! Mankind is stirring! POWERBOMB BY MANKIND! HOW DID HE DO THAT? COVER! 1… 2… SHOULDER UP! AMAZING DISPLAY OF RESILIENCE!
Mankind is looking to end this the only way he knows, with excruciating pain! He reaches for THE SOCK! He’s waiting for Rikishi to get on his feet! Rikishi turns… RIKISHI DRIVER!! He saw the advancing Mankind (IB) and planted him in the Rikishi Driver! Cover! 1… 2… 3!!!
Rikishi has survived this battle and goes through to the fatal 4-way Hell In A Cell match at Burnout!
WINNER: RIKISHI (Afrojoe)
I miss Socko, also whatever happened to the Rikishi driver? Probably went the same place as the tombstone, damn dangerous moves.
Still good match, well written.
