#4 The insanity of the Intercontinental Championship match at WWE Clash of Champions
The WWE decided to start WWE Clash of Champions with its best match and one of the best of the entire year. An Intercontinental Championship match between Sami Zayn, Jeff Hardy and AJ Styles was always going to be good. But I doubt many expected the brutal spots of this amazing ladder match.
It is the dangerous spots that really stood out. The early falls onto the ladder for Sami Zayn and Jeff Hardy looked painful, and they had the bruises to prove it. It continued with the surprising small ladder toss that hit Sami Zayn’s hand.
It continue with the crazy fall off the ladder by Jeff Hardy as he attempted to ride the ladder outside the ring. It naturally continued with Jeff Hardy jumping off the top of a ladder onto Sami Zayn lying on another ladder. Hopefully all involved have come out of the match injury-free at WWE Clash of Champions.
It was the ending that raised the match to another level. Sami Zayn attached handcuffs to Jeff Hardy’s ear lobe and the small ladder. Zayn handcuffed himself to AJ Styles who was then forced to literally carry Zayn as he tried to climb the ladder all the while Jeff Hardy tried to enter the ring with the ladder still attached to his ear.
Zayn was able to use a handcuff key and reach the Intercontinental Championship first at WWE Clash of Champions and regain the title he never lost: Pro wrestling insanity at its finest.
