Road Warrior Animal, Gran Hamada, & Robert Gibson vs. TAKA Michinoku, Jamal, & Bull Buchannon from AJPW 2004

 

Recap from TJ Hawke:

This match apparently happened. In real life. Jamal is of course the late Umaga. The match started with TAKA and Hamada after a ridiculous cock tease of TAKA and Animal squaring off. Buchannon and Gibson tagged in. Buchannon got the advantage. Gibson tagged out to Animal. Jamal tagged in. Umaga won that battle. TAKA went for a diving crossbody, but Animal caught him and hit a powerslam. Gibson started to work over TAKA. Eventually, TAKA made a comeback, and Gran Hamada then got worked over. He was worked over for a while. Hamada eventually hit TAKA with a tornado DDT. Gibson made a hot tag. Oddly, Hamada tagged back in and hit Buchannon with a hurricanrana. The match broke down. Buchannon eventually hit Hamada with a saito suplex and a SCISSORS KICK: 1…2…3.

 

This is real life.

Match Rating: **3/4
