WWE Clash Of Champions 2016: 10 Awesome Moments

2. Kevin Owens Crashes Through The Spanish Announce Table

One thing is virtually guaranteed when WWE present a pay-per-view, that Spanish announce table isn't surviving the show intact. On this occasion, it was Kevin Owens who crashed through the mix of wood and plastic, although he had been aiming to take Seth Rollins with him.

Perched atop the German broadcast desk, Owens ran forwards and hurled his body up into the air. Usually, this is a move the WWE Universal Champion performs inside the ring as a transitional spot. If nothing else, it's good for a quick near fall before moving on. At Clash Of Champions, the back splash-style attempt provided the main event with a huge bump.

It's never good when the announce table refuses to play along and actually break, so Owens was leaving nothing to chance here. He got some serious height on his leap, meaning that the desk had no choice but to crumple beneath his weight.

Rollins moved just at the right time too, ensuring that his peer didn't look foolish by seeing him drop to the floor yet deciding to throw himself anyway.
