FWZ Championship Match: The Rock vs Kurt Angle.
Rock and Angle stood face-to-face and stared eachother down for quite sometime before the match started. Rock exploded and got the early advantage. Angle quickly turned it around with a low blow. Rock got right up and nailed Kurt with a standing elbow and then hit a Side Russian Legsweep on him. Rock did not follow up very quickly and Angle hit a clothesline on him.
Angle backed Rock into the corner and choked him with a boot to the throat. An “Angle Sucks” chant started and Rock came out of the corner with much force, but Angle took him down and got him in an ankle lock. Rock grabbed the ropes and the hold was released. Angle began kicking away at Rock as he tried to get up.
Rock got up and threw a series of rights, but Angle took him down hard. Angle hit a suplex and then whipped him off the ropes. Rock countered and hit an arm drag takeover and both men stayed down. Angle got up and threw fists at rock, but he blocked them and hit a flying clothesline on Angle after hitting the ropes. Rock locked Angle in the Sharpshooter in the middle of the ring, but Angle would not tap.
Angle got to the ropes and Rock whipped him off the ropes. Rock his a Samoan Drop on Angle and got a 2-count with the cover. Rock kicked Angle in the gut, but Angle fought back and suplexed him to the mat. Angle went upstairs, but Rock hit the top rope and knocked him off. Rock threw rights at Angle while he was sitting on the turnbuckle and he hit a Superplex on him.
Rock went for the cover, but Angle kicked out. Both men were slow to get to their feet. Rock got up and whipped Angle off the ropes, but he countered and took him over the top rope and onto the floor. Rock was holding his knee on the floor and Angle then got out and threw him back into the ring. Angle went back on the attack, but Rock grabbed him and hit a huge DDT. The Big Show’s music then hit and he started to come down to the ring.
Show got in the ring and chokeslammed the referee. Show then grabbed Angle and chokeslammed him and then did the same to The Rock. Show’s music hit again and he walked out with both competitors and the referee laid out in the ring. Tim White and Earl Hebner came down and got the injured referee out of the ring. Angle went over and made the cover on the Rock while they helped him out, so there was no one to make the cover. Earl saw this and ran into the ring to make the count, but Rock kicked out.
Rock reached out and grabbed Kurt Angle’s title belt and laid him out with a shot to the head. Rock rolled over and covered Angle, but he kicked out at two. They got up slowly and Angle got Rock in the ankle lock submission yet again. Rock nearly reached the ropes, but Angle pulled him away and slammed his knee to the mat and locked the hold in again.
Rock finally reached out and grabbed the bottom rope. Angle went to work on Rock’s knees. Rock got up and threw some rights, but Angle lifted a knee to the gut and stopped him. Rock then hit a desperation spinebuster on Angle and got to his feet. He signaled for the People’s Elbow and hit it, but Angle kicked out.
Both men were down and Rock got to his feet first. Angle was in the corner and Rock started to stomp away at him. Angle hit a low blow and got to his feet once again. He ripped the top turnbuckle pad off and then slammed Rock’s face into the exposed turnbuckle. Angle followed up with the Olympic Slam, but Rock kicked out of the cover.
Angle went to work on Rock as he stood up, and took a cheap shot to his ankle. Rock stood up slowly and slammed Angle into the turnbuckle. Angle stood up and turned around and received The Rock Bottom. Rock made the cover and came as close to 3 as he could get, but apparently Angle kicked out. Rock hit another Rock Bottom on Angle and pinned him again and this time got the 3-count. The Rock is the new WWE Champion.
Winner: The Rock
