Bodhi Hayward vs Von Wagner: Part 3 (Mega Post)

 

Bodhi had just got a near fall with a sunset flip and followed up with a leaping forearm.

Bodhi attempts a cross bodyblock but Von catches him and turns it into a fall away slam.

Bodhi crawls to the ropes and Von yanks on Bodhi's ponytail to stretch his neck against the ropes.

Von pauses for a moment and talks to the referee, allowing Bodhi to catch his breath.

Bodhi fights back with a boot to the gut and a forearm to the face.

Von misses a running boot to the corner, allowing Bodhi to get into a three point stance.

Bodhi chop blocks Von's knee and follows up with a shoulder block and a big splash.

Bodhi's pumped and on a roll.

Bodhi scoops up Von for a power slam but Von slips out and drives Bodhi's head into the turnbuckle.

Von picks up Bodhi and executes a twisting Samoan Drop.

That's enough to keep Bodhi down for the count.

This was a short but sweet brawl, executed with good energy. You can see the full match here -

For some reason, Bodhi was released from the WWE last November. I think it's a shame. He's big, athletic, charismatic, he's got an appealing look. Maybe there's some backstage issue we don't know about.

I will likely feature more of Bodhi's matches going forward.
