2. A Chain Knee Drop (On A Chair)

Never underestimate the power of a knee drop....especially if that knee is wrapped in metal chains and your opponent happens to be lying dangerously close to a steel chair. Kyle O'Reilly used this (absolutely made up) traditional wrasslin' lesson to great effect to win on Thursday night.

He crashed through chain and chair to bruise Cole's chin/neck/sternum/face/head/everything and pick up the pinfall following 40 minutes of back-and-forth punishment. It was a suitable closing move, and was ably helped by the fact that Kyle jumped from the middle turnbuckle onto his old Undisputed Era buddy.

Cole must have nerves of steel too, 'cause he barely flinched.

It was tough to get a decent freeze frame of O'Reilly hitting his target, so you'll need to put up with the image of him draped over Cole afterwards instead. Sorry about that, but the moment of impact was just a little too blurry and barely showed what had happened anyway.
