When Ali was moved to SmackDown Live, the fans were happy for the former 205 Live Superstar. He had already proved his worth to WWE during his run in WWE’s third brand and after he became part of the blue brand, Ali received a huge push.

In just his second main roster match, he pinned the then-WWE Champion, Daniel Bryan, in a tag team match where he teamed up with AJ Styles to take on Bryan and Andrade.

However, only a few fans know that Ali had botched his finisher, the 450 Splash, and his knee hit Bryan’s throat (which, as per him, wasn’t true and it was the latter’s chin instead).

"Obviously, when that happened anyone that could see, could see that I was like, ‘Holy, I just landed on his face.’ Luckily when we came back, we found out that it was his chin.”

Pro Wrestling Unlimited also posted a short clip of this match where we can hear Ali apologizing to his former nemesis after that botched move.

Fortunately, this little botch didn’t hinder Ali’s push that time and he continued wrestling high-profile matches on the blue brand. However, in February, he got injured by Randy Orton and since then, Ali hasn’t done anything significant, although there's been a series of vignettes promoting him on WWE TV.

Do you have anyone you want to apologize to? Just kidding, but if you have any thoughts on this topic, feel free to share in the comments below or shout it out to our Twitter account at @SKProWrestling!
