* Wolverine vs Deathstryke
** "I used to think you were one of a kind, Wolverine. I was wrong."
** Deathstryke dominating most of the fight, launching Logan around the chamber like a rag-doll. Not to mention her rapid-fire knife hand strikes to Logan's kidneys.
** Logan electrocuting Deathstryke through the tank's solution while choke-pinned through the Adam's Apple and being repeatedly shivved in the back, then managing to kill her by melting her skeleton with the impromptu application of an adamantium injector straight through her stomach and into her spine. Logan's animal might didn't win him the day but his brains.
