‘The Samoan Submission Machine’ Samoa Joe vs. ‘The World Class Maniac’ Eric Young
Both men landed strikes on one another until a dropkick and a neckbreaker just got a one count for EY. Joe tossed Young out of the ring and hit a ‘Tope Suicida’ as we headed to a commercial. We came back to see EY fighting back, only to be thrown and crushed into corner followed by an enziguri by Joe.
Joe catches EY with a senton, but Young tries to fight back, before Joe hits him with a huge back body drop. Joe runs right through EY and beats him down in the corner, but Young flips over the turnbuckle and follows up with a clothesline on Joe.
A suplex from Eric Young only gets him a two count, but Joe avoided the piledriver attempt and countered Young with a sick urange suplex and endless strikes. Joe ends EY’s misery by hitting a Muscle Buster and locking him in the Coquina Clutch to pick up the victory by making EY tap out. Joe refused to release the lock until EY passed out cold.
