I was recently watching the Royal Rumble 1990 and I saw a segment where people were asked who would win the Rumble Match itself. One person said Ax, "because he beat Andre."

I remember hearing this a long time ago (like 10 years ago) and I have always wondered:

Did Ax ever defeat Andre in a singles match?

"JAKKS, Ringside, someone save us from our prototype hell!"

If they did maybe it was Andre vs. Ax (as Super Machine) though?

Ax, Smash & Jim Duggan def Andre, Akeem & Bossman Edit: Nevermind, I saw you said singles just now.

Even when The Demos beat The Collosal Connection, it was Haku who got pinned, not Andre.
