I would say if they still get flung, and you want to give them a reflex save, just make them do it with like a penalty equal to their negative hit points. I personally would just say "you catch the hit, and you fly through the air and are now knocked out cold."

So the sequence would go like this: 1) Foe activates awesome blow, hits you, reduces you to negative hp. 2) You make a reflex save, though your dex is now zero (so your check is penalized accordingly).
