[28:00 JT-10 DVD-9 CM-8 ] CM rolls off of David, rolling onto his stomach to breathe... but he neglects that Kash still has DVD in the Figure Four. David is still tapping, and confused, the referee signals for the bell a second time.

Bink: "Three points to JT Kash via Submission!"

Joey: "JT was falling way behind thanks to those chairshots, but he's pulled himself into a significant lead."

Jake: "At the rate these guys are jobbing, CM and DVD should catch up in no time."

[24:00 JT-13 DVD-9 CM-8 ] Christian hustles to break up the Figure Four now and hurls JT out of the ring. He goes for a cover on DVD, but it's only a two count. JT gets up on the ring apron, but CM scouts him and sends a Sweet Chin Music into his face. Kash flies off the apron and bounces off the guardrail like a rubber ball. Michaels quickly follows him out there, grabbing him by the shorts and slamming him into everything in the area that's harder than flesh. CM rolls him back in and heads for the top rope. He's aiming for JT, but Kash leaps up and climbs up to meet him- Kash throws CM back with a toss... but CM manages to land elbow-first on DVD with his Elbow Drop!!! CM makes the cover before JT realizes... ONE! TWO! THREE!

Bink: "Two points to Christian Michaels via Pinfall!"

[18:00 JT-13 CM-10 DVD-9 ] DVD rolls out of the ring. CM flies at JT with a hard forearm, getting the fire back in him. JT falls victim to a rough DDT by CM, followed by Michaels slamming hard fists into Kash. The crowd isn't sure what to think with two W2K heroes going at it, but they're left with no alternative but to boo as David Van Dam enters the ring with a chair. WHAP! Van Dam plants the chair into CM's back, sending the sound of contact echoing around the arena. The ref snatches the chair away, tossing it to the outside and signaling the bell.

Bink: "One point to Christian Michaels via Disqualification!"

Joey: "CM is catching up fast. Can he take out his longtime rival, JT Kash?!"

[11:00 JT-13 CM-11 DVD-9 ] DVD guns for JT, laying hard kicks into his midsection. He whips him to the corner and splashes hard, then connects with a Snap Suplex and a cover- but it's a two count. Van Dam goes for an angle slam, but Kash reverses into a DDT. He goes for a cover, but Van Dam surprises him with a cradle... ONE! TWO! NO! CM breaks it up and throws DVD shoulder-first into the ringpost. He turns around and stalks JT. JT turns around and CM hits him with a perfect Dropkick! Kash falls back into the ropes and bounces forward. CM goes to Clothesline, but JT ducks it aaand-

Jake: "Stigma Killer! It looks like my move! Lmao!"

JT goes for the cover... but DVD breaks it up! He covers CM himself. ONE! TWO! NO! CM kicks out!

Joey: "DVD is trying his damndest to get back the lead he lost."

[06:00 JT-13 CM-11 DVD-9 ] JT and CM decide they've had enough sharing the ring with DVD. They both nod and grab him, Double DDTing him into the canvas. DVD struggles to get to his feet, which ends up being in vein as both JT and CM connect with their Superkicks at the same time. Van Dam crumples backward through the ropes to the outside. JT and CM stare at each other. JT grins, motioning to the clock. CM wastes zero time going for a grapple, but JT dodges it and ends up relaxing in the corner. He motions to his wrist, taunting Michaels. CM tries to splash the corner, but JT moves. CM was prepared, landing on the second turnbuckle. He turns and comes down on JT with a Cross Body Pin! ONE! TWO! NO! JT kicks out and rolls away. CM flies after him, but this time his rush gets him caught. JT sidesteps and grabs Christian in a sleeper-hold. CM falls to a knee as the seconds tick away!

Joey: "Time is running out! CM needs a submission to win it!"

Jake: "He's going to need a miracle if he falls asleep here."

[02:00 JT-13 CM-11 DVD-9 ] JT does his best to grin, but the time is getting to him and everyone is tired as hell. Especially the guy in the sleeper hold who has two minutes to make someone tap out. Christian sends hard elbows into JT, but time's a'wasting. Kash releases the sleeper finally, and CM goes for a Clothesline. JT ducks and goes for the Stigma Killer... but CM grabs his hair and slams him down. He hops over to JT's legs and before you know it, CM has the Figure Four locked in on JT now!

Joey: "Oh man! If JT taps here, he loses the W2K Title!"

Jake: "The tension is hard to beleive, but someone's got to win I guess."

[00:29 JT-13 CM-11 DVD-9 ] JT struggles to turn it over, but can't seem to do it. Van Dam is barely recovering on the outside and the clock is nearly out. CM is putting all the pressure he can muster, but JT isn't tapping. He aims to keep that title for the sake of W2K. CM sits up, screaming in JT's face. JT is exhausted, but manages to look CM right in the face and... and GRIN! JT smiles his best smile, right before dropping back onto the mat. Before CM knows what's going on, the referee has counted- ONE! TWO! THREE!

Bink: "Two points to Christian Michaels via Pinfall!"

Joey: "He GRINNED! In the middle of all that, he GRINNED!"

Jake: "He did what a smart Champion would do- protected the belt!"

*ding ding*

[00:00 JT-13 CM-13 DVD-9] The final score is on the clock and CM is speechless. JT rolls to the edge of the ring, getting his breath. He climbs up using the ropes, and CM gets to his feet as well. Bink walks into the ring.

Bink: "Ladies and gentlemen, this match has resulted in a TIE between Christian Michaels and JT Kash!"

[ Michaels narrows his eyes at JT, understanding what this means. JT grins as they hand him the belt. ]

Bink: "However, in the event of a tie, your W2K Champion is STILL... JT KASH!!!"

[ The fans cheer as "Walk" hits the speakers. Kash raises up his W2K Championship so CM can see it. Michaels shakes his head, leaving the ring. JT takes a corner and holds the W2K Championship high up as the scene fades. ]
