Instead, he went straight into the board in the middle of the sweeper. How else could that happen if the guy on the inside hadn't turned hard right and taken them both to the board?

Don't get me wrong, it was a dialed move, and really smart on his part considering how they'd been banging doors, and that Andrew was faster, but lets not pretend it was an accident. It was just a pretty awesome, albeit very risky and aggressive move by Mike. I wish I was good enough to pull it off.
