Having squashed Khan the previous month, Andre is in no mood for this faux-Mongolian’s peskiness. Khan’s the cockroach that won’t stay dead. After he tries to bodyslam the Giant and fails, Andre is dumbfounded that Khan is still alive after having nearly squashed him. When Andre’s in control of Khan, Khan keeps telling the ref he’s being choked, which only further irks the big man as he keeps defending his actions to the referee. “It’s not a choke!” – for some reason, I gave Andre Arnold Schwarzenegger’s voice. Such a strong performance from Andre, with Khan playing the dirty heel much to the delight of the Japanese fans. He comes at Andre with Mongolian chops but the Giant traps the arms and hits a double arm suplex. Khan goes for the eyes, poking and raking, and then he begins chopping the Giant down at the ankle. Some of Andre’s best selling here as Khan takes advantage of the situation, with Giant re-injuring himself and Khan attacking the leg. Khan is able to stun Andre with the Mongolian chops and downs him momentarily with Mongolian chops from the top rope, but when he tries to double dip, Andre throws him from the top rope, hits a suplex and a sloppy leg drop for the win. One of Andre's best in-ring performances with Khan working as the bothersome babyface heel.
