Mankind vs Shawn 96

By Scott Keith on 27 June 2020

Hi Scott

I've always felt that this match is a 5 star match if it had a proper finish and I think I recall you saying something similar?

Curious though – what kind of finish would you have put on the match to get that mark? It always seemed to me they booked themselves into a corner by booking the match in the first place?

What are people's thoughts on how this match should have ended?
I would have had Shawn hit a blind superkick and fall on top for the flash pin, at which point Mankind pops up like a serial killer and continues attacking, and then they can do the post-match brawl to quickly erase the loss and move on. Then you at least get a finish and you're not hurting Mankind.
