Flash hammers away at The Animal's midsection...but it has no effect.

The Animal, now angered, begins the destruction of the champ.

With his sledge hammer like fist, he pounds away on Flash.

Flash is in agony as The Animal ties him up.

Flash's face says in all as The Animal cranks on a full nelson.

"I'll break your neck Flash!"

Flash is helpless in The Animal's choke hold.

Flash knows what's coming.

The Animal works on crushing the windpipe of Flash.

Flash nearly breaks in half when The Animal spears him.

Sorry Flash, but the agony is far from over.

The Animal is crushing Flash's neck.

Time for the choke slam...

...and the aftermath is apparent.

Had this been a title match, Flash would have lost the belt...but The Animal didn't want the belt.
