Just been watching the Daddy v Haystacks farce from the Royal Albert hall where Mr Haystacks is belly bumped (what else!) from the ring by the blond superhero in the giant baby grow. I have to say given Giant Haystacks usual slow laboured approach to wrestling I’m not 100% convinced he intended to exit the ring in such spectacular fashion. What do you people think?

I am sure that this was the planned ending to the bout, as the table was there waiting to break his fall, as already mentioned. However, when I watch it, I always think that Haystacks fall was a bit more speedy and dangerous than he had probably planned it to be.
I also agree with the earlier comments that Haystacks dazed look and his complaint to Kent Walton that he 'slipped' were brilliant.
It was brilliant that Haystacks complained to Kent Walton, saying that he slipped. I was waiting for Kent to give it his usual "I don't know what he thinks I can do about it".
Oh right. Fair enough. Takes some guts to do that when you’re as compromised as Stax was. Gotta love him, his dazed look was second to none.
He has tumbled over the ropes on more than one occassion. When tagging with Dave Finlay he went out the same way. I am sure its happened a few times in tag matches. Not a move i would try at his weight. Only needs a rope to slack or break and it would have been a serious spinal injury.
Don’t doubt it was set up, but when wobble bott once again saved the world with his belly butt Haystacks left the ring like nothing I’ve ever seen him do previously . Never seen an upside down Giant Haystacks before or since or a landing like that, I have it on good authority it caused flooding in many parts of the world.
It was all set up, hence the table in place for him to land on, and break his fall.
