Braun Strowman vs Carmelo Hayes on SmackDown. | (Credits: X)
Carmelo Hayes pulled off an Eddie Guerrero-like trick to con the referee in the latest episode of SmackDown during his bout with Braun Strowman. In the video surfaced on social media, Hayes struck the steel chair on the ground and made it look to the referee like Strowman had hit him with the same.
Guerrero, the late wrestler, was widely known for pulling off the trick to help him win his matches in the WWE. Hayes, meanwhile, hit the ground with the chair before tossing the same to Strowman and falling to the ground as the referee was distracted. Nevertheless, the referee turned his attention to the match just in time and saw Strowman holding the chair. Despite the towering wrestler protesting that he didn’t use it, the referee disqualified him.
Below is the video of the same:
