SHANE McMAHON VS. RIKISHI

(King of the Ring 2000 qualifier)

WWF Raw (29^th May 2000)

  Shane McMahon jumpstarts the match with right hands, but Rikishi absorbs them and shoves Shane across the ring. Shane gets to his feet for half a second before a clothesline knocks him back down and Rikishi gets in some receipts for the right hands.

  The crowd call Shane a pussy and Rikishi stomps on his midsection as Triple H walks out for a nosey. Shane is sent off the ropes into a back drop and Triple H gets on the apron, distracting Rikishi long enough for Shane to land a low blow and follow up with his prancing jabs. Shane dances around because he knocked Rikishi down but is costs him, Rikishi blocks the right hand and fires off some of his own. Shane McMahon is sent into the corner and Rikishi follows for a clothesline. Triple H is knocked off the apron as Shane slumps down in the corner. Triple H blocks the Stink Face which JR calls out as an interference, King thinks it’s fine since he’s WWF Champion. The referee seems to agree with Lawler as he stands back. Rikishi sends Triple H into the corner and knocks him down with a running hip attack.

  Rikishi sets up another Stink Face but Shane hits him with a chair to cause the disqualification.

WINNER: RIKISHI (Via DQ)

 [DUD] 0/10

After the match Shane hits Rikishi with a flying chair shot and Triple H has to stomp the dent out of it before hitting a Pedigree to Rikishi on the chair, giving Shane O Mac the visual victory.
