A great match with both fella asserting themselves aggressively throughout. Sid was able to weaken his larger opponent's leg with a series of Big Boots. This limited mobility allowed Sid to catch Machine with a finishing Choke Slam followed by a pin.
25 Earthquake defeats 26 Typhoon
Earthquake used a series of Big Splashes and Earthquake Splashes to take the air out of Typhoon's tires and was able to pin his relatively diminutive foe inside of five minutes.

Super Heavyweight Title Match Featuring #22 Sycho Sid vs #25 EarthquakeIt's the battle to settle it all amongst the giants of the sport. And quite literally with 7 of the 32 entrants having "Giant" in their name. At the start of it all few would've predicted a Best of 3 Title Match between two 20-something seeds. But each grappler has more than earned their spot. They share matching 5-1 records with all wins coming via the pin. Sid has beaten the 9 seed (Big Van Vader) once and 5 seed (Kane) twice on his road to the championship match. And Earthquake has left the likes of Abdullah the Butcher (#8) and Big John Studd (#4) in his 'Quake wake.
Match 1
Sycho Sid pins Earthquake
Sid wasted no time in staking his claim to the title. He kicked and slammed the 468 lb. Canadian all over the ring and ended the match with a powerful Choke Slam only four minutes into it.
Match 2
Sycho Sid pins Earthquake - WINS TITLE
Match 2 was basically a Max Power (Google it) version of Match 1. Sid captured the title with a Choke Slam at the end of the match's second minute. |
