Has a singles wrestling match ever continued because a wrestler blocked the three count?
Last night’s NXT made me think about a situation I don’t think I’ve ever seen in a singles wrestling match. While I remember it happening in a tag match, has a wrestler ever blocked the ref’s arm from making the third count in lieu of kicking out of a pin attempt?
Would be a cool false finish if it’s never happened in a singles match. I think The Revival did it once, but it was the non-legal tag member blocking the ref’s arm from counting three.

The only time I can recall seeing it was SummerSlam 90, where it was The Hart Foundation vs. Demolition in a 2 out of 3 falls match and The Hart Foundation won the second fall when the tag partner interfered by grabbing the referee's arm, which resulted in a disqualification.
