ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH MAIN EVENT AT WRESTLEMANIA V 15 Chaos Superstars 15 Xplosion Superstars One Winner
Now I would like to say a little about this. Sad it's gone, first of all... easily one of my top 5 favorite matches I wrote (along with WM 3 Main Event that is also gone). I remember the top 3 even without the breakdown below(which I still don't know when I did that), hence why they are in the banner above, though. I remember them though, because of my favorite spot in the match. A spot that was ripped off by WWE and John Morrison 2 years later lol. Difference is Rikku won, Morrison just did it randomly in the middle of the match.
That said, up to this point both feet had been emphasized before (ala HBK), but the floor itself hadn't. Yea you got Morrison in 2010 and Kofi several times... but this was well before either of those.
Down to Taylor, Hayden and Rikku. Taylor & Hayden show that Xplosion vs Chaos mentality, double teaming and tossing the lone Chaos Star Rikku out of the ring, but she lands on the barricade. Taylor and Hayden pay her no mind and fight eachother for awhile, until Taylor is able to eventually eliminate Hayden. Taylor begins celebrating thinking he's won. As he's posing on the turnbuckle though, this is when Rikku walks acrossed the barricade, jumps onto the steps... then gets in the ring and drop kicks Taylor in the back, off the turnbuckle and to the floor.
Despite this match being gone... I still can prove I wrote it before Morrison did an almost identical spot... because Summer Slam 2008(which IS recovered) had the EWE's 3 Phase Challenge... and during the Phase One Battle Royal, I had a call back to this spot, with Rikku landing ont he barricade again... so look out for that .
