Deemed the Greatest Clothesline Ever by mrknight411 who made the gif above, Akeem's snapshot effort on Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania V certainly places a claim to such a title. Michaels, easily one of WWE's greatest sellers of all time, adds to the effect of this shot with the way he lands on his upper back and flops over to his front, however that doesn't remove from the impact of Akeem's arm smashing into Michaels' upper neck, causing his head to snap back. Akeem, known primarily throughout his career as the One Man Gang, is a good 6ft 9 inches tall and probably tipped the scales around 400lbs here. In spite of his mass, essentially dwarfing Michaels in this match, he pulls no punches in swinging all the force of that mass into Michaels' throat, in his WrestleMania debut match. Sufficed to say, it was a stiff welcome to event he would eventually be dubbed the patriarch of.
Betting on being a brilliant brother to Bodhi since 2008 (-1 Asian Handicap). Find me @LiamJJohnson on Twitter where you might find some wonderful pearls of wisdom in a stout cocktail of profanity, football discussion and general musings. Or you might not. Depends how red my eyes are.
