TEST VS. THE HURRICANE

 Test makes his way out first, Michael Cole goes through the men already qualified for the tournament, but I can only tell you about Brock Lesnar, X-Pac and Booker T. The Hurricane makes his way out and he met Nidia backstage earlier, Nidia said he would be an ex-champion soon. Hurricane says he’ll take the match anytime, any place before Nidia licks him.

Michael Cole and Tazz are on commentary for this match.

TEST VS. HURRICANE (King of the Ring qualifier)

WWE Smackdown (13th June 2002)


  The bell rings, Hurricane ducks a right hand, he connects with some of his own but Test doesn’t sell them. The Hurricane bails to ringside and Test gives chase, Hurricane back in the ring, and he keeps moving, ducking a clothesline from Test and hitting a jumping forearm.

 The Hurricane ducks another clothesline, he knocks Test down again but an irish whip is reversed. Test follows, leaving little space between himself and Hurricane before he crushes him with a clothesline in the corner. Test boots Hurricane whilst he’s laid on the mat, and the referee brings him away. Test runs into Hurricane’s boot. He charges to the corner again and hits the turnbuckles. Test catches a flying crossbody from Hurricane, but he fights out. The Hurricane grabs Test for a chokeslam but Test elbows out. The Hurricane counters a Pumphandle slam into a final cut for a nearfall.

  The Hurricane connects with right hands, Test catches one and hits a spinning neckbreaker he calls the Testdrive for the win.

WINNER: TEST

 

This was a short qualifier, The Hurricane got to look pretty strong in defeat and it was a way to continue his story with Jamie Noble and Nidia. [*½] 3/10

After the match, Jamie Noble and Nidia come down to the ring, They humiliate The Hurricane and unmask him, taking his mask and cape after slapping him around, giving The Hurricane a fat lip.
