Andre the Giants 1st Clean Loss

[Kamala]

Andre is far from a monster in my fed he has lost over 10 times, including 4 in a row at one point! He is 28-14 in Singles action. He was injured recently by Abdullah the Butcher & Brody and out of action!

I just started using Andre in my Wrestling Edge Australia for my special attraction event and his final match for this event he lost in a very good battle with "Handsome" Harley Race...

[Gunslinger]

Antonio Inoki upset Andre for me last year in Andre's only clean loss to date. However, Andre's best match for me was a recent one with William Muldoon that saw both men with 9 tokens at the end. 'Dre won with the Big Splash but it was the best match I've had in years.

At this point, Andre has only a few losses in my fed (which is one reason why I created the Legacy Division for guys like him, Thesz, and a few others). He lost cleanly to Gotch and Mascaras, and to one of my created wrestlers (a 180 lb. Egyptian submission wrestler). He's steamrolled everyone else.

I just had him pinned for the first time in a tag tournament match. It was Andre and Tony Atlas vs The Bolsheviks. Andre hit the Big Splash on Zhukov, but Volkoff came in to make the save and the Pin Save chart referred me to the Wrestler Interference chart for a major intervention. Volkoff put Andre down and Zhukov recovered and hit Andre with his Diving Headbutt finisher and Andre kicked out. Zhukov tagged in Volkoff, who delivered his Backbreaker Drop finisher. Atlas tried to make the save but was cut off and I rolled a 4, which with a fatigue token and the +2 finisher was enough to put him out.

Oddly enough, he was desperately close to losing in his previous match, a house show main event against the One Man Gang. Andre had dominated most of the match and hit the Big Splash. Gang is part of the House of Humperdink and Humperdink distracted Andre and the ref and Gang hit Andre with the chain he brings to ringside. The chart called for Add 1 and roll pin, which put Andre's pin rating at two...I rolled a three. Andre recovered and pinned OMG with a Sitdown Splash.

Andre the Giant suffered his first loss although not clean loss to Harley Race. After the U.S. Champ The Shiek assaulted the Commish, The Commish decided not to suspend The Shiek but to make his life in the Lwf a Giant Hell and brought in Andre the Giant to face the Shiek in a non-title match at the maple leaf gardens on tuesday night explosion and if Andre won he would get a title shot at the next house show at the Maple Leaf Gardens, Andre deafted The Shiek and then deafted him again at the house show for the u.s. title. Andre's first u.s. title defense was aganist Harley Race who after losing his feud to Bruiser Brody brought in the One Man Gang and Sir Oliver Humperdink to run Brody out of the Lwf and to watch his back and help him win matches. Andre was well on his way to winning and retaining the U.S. Title when The One Man Gang interfered and slammed Andre whike the ref was distracted, but Andre rallied and was about to put Harley away after a sitdown splash when Oliver Humperdink distracted the referee and Race rallied and somehow piledrove andre for the win and the U.S. Title. The crowd was stunned and nearly rioted and Harley and Humperdink and Thr Gang needed help getting to the locker rooms. Andre vowed he would have his revenge on the house of Humperdink and got his first chance at the sold out maple leaf gardens aganist The One Man Gang and after a great match the Gang pinned Andre. The House of Humperdink are quickly becoming the top heels in my lwf territory, surpassing the Shiek.

Randy Savage got a clean win over Andre for me a couple weeks ago, making him only the second person to do so. Savage is a beast!

If Andre ever loses in my fed, you can bet it will never be 'clean'

For the most part my babyfaces are 'protected' and pins or especially submissions happen because the heel did something or someone interfered.

Andre submitting to a figure four would be because Valentine applied it after someone else knocked out the giant with a pipe to the skull. And even then I would make a point to say Valentine didn't even have the hold applied correctly because of Andre's massive legs.

The result would be the same, a loss, but I would fudge it a bit to reflect history. Andre was not someone who lost clean. At least in the US. He submitted to Inoki's arm breaker in Japan but that was as a heel and pretty much unknown to US fans until the internet exploded in popularity.

This just happened at my TV tapings

- The Grappler pinned Andre the Giant at 6:10 after repeatedly kicking him with the LOADED BOOT. After the match, a bloodied Andre pulled off Grappler's boot, causing a metallic object to fall out. The referee reversed the decision and awarded the match to the Giant, who pummeled the masked man with the boot and pulled off Grappler's mask to reveal Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy who ran back to the dressing room

But the fact is, The Grappler PINNED Andre The Giant. Of course I had to do SOMETHING with it since kayfabe Andre never loses.

George Hackenschmidt took down Andre in the World Champions' Invitational Tournament tonight! Hackenschmidt put Andre in trouble with several wristlock suplexes, which I redefined as hammerlock submissions. After weakening both arms of the Giant, Hackenschmidt locked in the Russian Bearhug for three consecutive rolls, giving Andre a total of six fatigue tokens. Andre took the match out of the ring, and slammed Hackenschmidt on the arena floor. When action returned to the ring, Andre dropped onto Hackenschmidt with the turnbuckle squash, but Hack got his leg over the bottom rope to keep the match rolling. After Andre missed with an underhook suplex, Hackenschmidt exploded off the ropes with a running knee smash and scored the clean pin!
