Bushido fights out and nails a reverse hurricanrana from the top!! 1…2…NO! Bushido peppered the champ with kicks and then hit some kind ofa flipping DDT: 1…2…NO! What the hell was that??? Great action, that’s what.
Bushido went to the top rope and went for a Phoenix Splash but he didn’t quite pull it off quickly enough, allowing Gabe to escape his path. Gambino quickly took advantage, nailing a lariat and following quickly THE FONGUL!! 1..2..3!
Your winner, and still GFC World Heavyweight Champion, Gabriel Gambino!
A great challenge from Bushido, who shouldn’t be disheartened by that defeat. Gambino will rub this in the face of his detractors for a while, I’m sure. While Bushido had him rocked for periods of that match he showed the determination to turn it round and hold on to that title of his.
