Cobb crushes Okada

The feud between Jeff Cobb and Kazuchika Okada raged on at Summer Struggle tonight. Driven by unadulterated hatred Cobb blindsided Okada in attempt to injure his back and put him on the shelf.

Okada was the last to leave the ring and head through the curtain to the backstage area after his team won their tag team match. Seconds later he came barreling through the curtain back in the arena. Cobb gave Okada a head butt and a punch to the face. Cobb picked up Okada, moved back so he could pick up a head of steam then ran with Okada smashing his back into the steel post and dumping him on the arena floor. Cobb rolled Okada into the ring. Holding his back and grimacing, Okada tried to get back to his feet. Cobb set up Okada for a Rainmaker Clothesline but gave him a Tour of the Islands instead rearranging his spine even more.

A smiling Cobb stood over Okada keeping Young Lions who wanted to come to Okada’s aid at bay. Finally when Cobb left they scraped Okada off the canvass and carried him to the back.
