This match is actually very ironic as Vader was supposed to be working over Yoko's leg but winds up actually legit breaking it, they immediately stop the match and "award" vader the victory to quickly finish the match while Yoko rolls to the outside in immense pain.
He starts the pain screaming at about 7 minutes as the match is over they try to get him on a stretcher but it was obviously not gona work so obviously they went to commercial when they came back he was being forklift out at around 9.03. WWF of course uses this as a chance to get Vader over as a heel and improvises a 'fake' an attack on yoko's legit broken leg(though obviously hitting the thigh) but because of this injury Yoko wasnt seen in the company again except maybe once. was a sad sight as he was/is a legend and it was sad to see him go out like that
Just gave you rep for this, then they are pretending to whack his leg with chairs at the end? You kidding me?
pretty much. they improvised on a situation to get vader more over as a heel. But you can obviously see in the "attack" he is only hitting Yoko's thigh, not the leg. Dunno why yoko allowed it, but he was a legend after all but it was still a sad end. He did come back but only once or twice, his career was basically over. If im not mistaking he died a few years later because of his overweightness after doing a ppv for legends. Sad.
