Loss Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Earthquake runs in for the DQ after about 4 minutes. Lucifer is about to go the way of Damian when Andre the Giant is out on crutches to make the save. This distracts the Disasters long enough for Jake to chase them out of the ring with the snake.

PeteF3 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Jake's last televised match as a babyface until 1996. Seeing Andre here was just sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Jake still a good guy and playing to fans. Earthquake ends up interfering and threatening another quake of a snake. Andre slowly makes his way to ring and Earthquake probably could have hit three Quake Splashes on the snake during the time. We get to see Lucifer. I guess this caps this feud.

soup23 Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Hart laughing at Jake falling to the outside in the early going was funny. We get the end of face Jake and I guess a payoff to the feud with the Disasters getting chased away not unlike WM 5 vs. Andre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 This felt more like a Superstars main event than anything else. It really wasn't a blowoff, though, and I wonder if knowing that the expected direction of the feud based on everything we've seen so far (Jake/Andre vs. Disasters) was going to be impossible to pull off made Vince pull the trigger on Jake's turn once and for all. I don't honestly think there was much left for Jake as a face at this point, save perhaps an IC title feud with Curt (which would have required Bret to stay a tag wrestler and might have led to him leaving). Phoon really isn't much as a singles wrestler, which might be another reason why he was turned. Quake was definitely the workhorse of that team, if there was such a thing. I like that they didn't have Andre run in and clean house with his crutches, which would have been ludicrous considering his condition. Besides, they would have either had to mention his fear of snakes or ignore it completely, and both of those options would have been awkward at this point in time. Lucifer isn't really that much more fearsome than Damien was, at least by his looks on TV. It doesn't really matter, though, since we'll be getting the cobra once Jake's heel turn takes effect. Not that I'd expect them to mention this, but one of the supposed selling points of the DDT when Jake was fighting guys such as Bundy and Kamala was that the DDT was more effective against bigger men because their weight would add to the impact on their neck and spine. That's for Lord Alfred, who "wondered" how Jake would be able to DDT Phoon. For the record, they were running Jake/Quake as late as 8/12 in Tucson, according to Graham's site, then Jake was off the road until after the "reboot" of his heel turn at SummerSlam.

dawho5 Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Worthless match that Jake tries hard to save. Post-match angle is fine, but we all know what's coming. They still make Andre out to be a threat on commentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
