To end the match, Shawn Michaels hit Vince with the Sweet Chin Music. Upon impact, the superkick led to the former losing his teeth as he tried to make sense of what just happened, while his mouth gradually filled with blood.
Back then, WWE did not have a lot of regulations on plausible concussion-inducing shots. Therefore, such moves, including multiple hard-hitting steel chair shots on the head, were allowed. Both Vince and Michaels took advantage of weaker guidelines and made this feud as personal as it could get.
