10 High Flying WWE Stunts You Needed To See To Believe

8. Rikishi - Splash From Steel Cage

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGk1N5hB2HA Without a doubt the most unlikely high-flyer on this list, Rikishi is a member of the legendary Anoa€™i family. He was around wrestling his whole life, but it wasn€™t until fifteen years into his career that he found his niche and the character that would eventually become one of the most memorable acts of The Attitude Era. Rikishi was re-introduced in 1999, and when he was invited to dance with Too Cool as many people were, it clicked in a way no-one expected. Fans loved seeing the fat man get down, and were as impressed by Rikishi€™s dance moves as they were by his athleticism and agility in the ring. Rikishi€™s crowning glory in terms of impressive in-ring accomplishments came at Fully Loaded 2000 when in a surprisingly hard-hitting steel cage match with Val Venis, he seemed set to win his Intercontinetnal Championship back by scaling the cage and being a few feet from victory. Instead, he edged to the center of the cage and did the biggest splash since Jimmy Snuka nearly twenty years earlier. Val Venis won the match, but it was Rikishi that everyone was talking about when it was over.
