Roode now has Aries in a submission move, looks like a crippler cross face. Aries crawls to the ropes slowly, wretching in pain and finally Aries grabs the ropes but Roode doesn’t let go until the ref counts to 5. Aries is worn out and beaten. Roode is in control and chest slaps Ariest. Ariest then chops Roode back. This is a war! Roode throws Aries to the floor but Ariest grabs the rope and kicks Roode in the face. Aries climbs to the top rope, missle drop kick. Then another drop kick. Then Roode does a spinebuster ro Aries and goes for the pin, 2 count! Roode rushes Aries into the corner and the 2 fighters share punches back and forth. Roode then takes Aries to the top rope for an attempted superplex but Aries clocks the ears of Roode and 450 dives onto Roode but Roode puts up his knees. Aries crashes into Roode’s knees and the ref takes a bump. Roode pins Aries and a second ref runs down the ramp to make a 2 count! Aries makes a comeback and goes for the brainbuster but the 2nd ref takes a bump. Aries is in control and brainbusters Roode but both refs are unconcious. One of the refs slowly wakes up and crawls towards the pin but Aries only gets a 2 count. Aries climbs to the top rope but Roode takes advantage of the situation and superplexes Aries off the top rope and pins Aries, 1-2-3 BUT Roode’s shoulders were also on the mat for the count of 3. One ref holds up Roode’s hand and the other ref holds up Aries hand. We have controversy but Roode is leaving the Arena with the belt. Earl Hebner then comes from the back and takes the belt from Roode. Hebner has a discussion with the 2 confused referees. Earl Hebner orders for the match to start over again. Roode says “bullshit” but Aries immediately goes on the attack and drops over the top rope and crashes to the floor and goes unconcious. Roode picks up Aries and drags him into the ring for the pin but Aries kicks out right before the count of 3. Roode argues with the ref about the count. Roode is desperate. Aries then surprises the crowd by rolling up Roode and getting a quick 3 count. End of match. Aries wins! AND STILL WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, AUSTIN ARIES!
Winner: Austin Aries
After The Match:
Aries takes a sign from a fan that says TOTAL NONSTOP ARIES and he poses with the belt and the sign in the center of the ring while the crowd pops.
