Vs
Shawn Michaels
Kande goes right after HBK and tries to smash his head in the
cage, but Michaels is able to reverse it. Shawn tries to use his quickness to
avoid Kane, and sneak in some moves. Kane is able to catch him finally and sends
him head first in the cage!! He picks up Shawn and delivers a side slam. Then a
military press slam!! HBK senses that he is in trouble, but he has nowhere to
run. After ramming Michaels' face back in the cage, Kane tries to climb out...
Shawn starts shaking the cage like a mad man, and Kane comescrashing down back
in the ring. Shawn picks him up and rams him head first in the steel. It's
strength versus speed in this one. Kane tries to climb out of the cage again
after a suplex, but Shawn shakes the cage again, and Kane crashes down to the
ring. Shawn climbs the top rope... flying body splash connects!! He picks up
Kane... Sweet Chin Music!! Shawn is starting to climb the cage... Kane is still
down.... Shawn is at the top... Kane is starting to get up.... Shawn has made it
over the top of the cage!!
