Kane defeats Kofi Kingston on Smack Down
The mess started when the new Inter Continental Champion, Dolph Ziggler appeared in the ring with his girl friend, Vickie Guerrero to celebrate his newly won title. The former Inter Continental Champion, Kofi Kingston, who thought that he was robbed of the title, attacked Dolph Ziggler in complete rage. It was a chaotic situation as both wrestlers fought with each other like wild animals. The dust settled when the General Manager of Smack Down, Teddy Long entered the arena. He said that due to the controversy surrounding the Inter Continental title, both Kofi Kingston and Dolph Ziggler will fight a singles wrestling match at Summer Slam with the title on the line.
He also said that Dolph Ziggler will fight a warm up match against the high flying underdog, the master of 619, Rey Mysterio. Vickie Guerrero, official consultant to the Smack Down General Manager, who is against Kofi Kingston said that Kofi will also fight a match against the World Heavy Weight Champion, the big red machine, Kane. Kofi Kingston said that he is afraid of no one and is ready to fight any one, any time. That was the time when all the lights in the arena turned red and the big red monster, Kane walked into the ring. Everyone was ready for the big fight as Kofi Kingston prepared himself for the possible carnage in the ring.
The fight started as Kofi tried to deliver quick kicks to Kane’s abdomen. But Kane was ready for the attack as he punched Kofi right in his face. Kane is considered a pure striker in WWE as his one punch can bring an extreme amount of pain to his opponent. Just when Kofi fell on the ring floor after receiving the punch, wrestling pundits started questioning Kofi Kingston’s decision to accept the match with Kane before his fight at Summer Slam. Kofi then tried to shift the momentum of the match as he ran in the ring and delivered a standing drop kick to Kane’s abdomen.
Kane then countered Kofi’s effort by delivering a huge side walk power slam and banged Kofi’s back on the ring floor. Then an effective drop kick by Kofi Kingston knocked Kane out of the ring, on the concrete floor. Kofi was showing some great resilience as he battled Kane without any signs of fear or submissiveness. What many thought would be a one sided contest turned out to be a hard battle as Kofi gave a tough time to the World Heavy Weight Champion, Kane. Kofi Kingston then cornered Kane and started delivering huge punches to his face. Kane was at the verge of losing his reputation as Kofi clearly dominated the match with his hard core fighting tactics.
Kofi Kingston climbed the top turn buckle to deliver a missile drop kick to knock out Kane but the red monster was quick is his offense. Kane choked Kofi from that great height and then slammed him hard on the ring floor. It was devastating for the Inter Continental Champion as he struggled to gather his strength.
Then it was time for the big blow as Kane picked up the former Inter Continental Champion and delivered the most dreaded wrestling finisher called the Tomb Stone Pile Driver. Kane went for the cover as a formality and the referee counted to three with both of Kofi’s shoulders touching the ring floor. Kane was all ready and pumped up for the big match at Summer Slam against Rey Mysterio with the World Heavy Weight Championship on the line.
It was a disheartening loss for Kofi Kingston, who badly needed some momentum before his match for the Inter Continental title. Despite the defeat, many wrestling pundits believe that Kofi has the energy and determination to win back his title at the summer wrestling party of Summer Slam.
