WWE Title Match: HHH © vs. The Great Khali

Khali and HHH stand off, Khali shoves him and HH starts throwing rights. He avoids Khali, lands more rights and looks for the pedigree, no dice. Khali grabs HHH by the throat, TREE SLAM~! Khali stalks HHH, and locks in the vise grip! HHH escapes, chop blocks the left leg of Khali and he rolls to the floor. HHH follows but gets killed by the JUDO CHOP! Khali whips him to the barrier and then tosses him back in the ring. Boots by Khali in the corner, and then just beats HHH down. Short-armed clothesline by Khali, and a cover with one foot gets 2. Vulcan neck pinch now by Khali as the crowd chants "You can't wrestle." He releases the hold and then slams HHH down. Leg drop follows and a cover for 2. Back to the neck pinch goes Khali, HHH tries to fight to his feet and does. Elbows to Khali, rights, off the ropes and HHH kind of gets the knee buster. Khali trapped in the ropes and HHH charges in, but eats a boot. The ref helps Khali escape the ropes, but HHH gets a boot, looks for the pedigree and is back-dropped to the floor. Khali breaks the count, grabs HHH but HHH pulls him down and slams his leg off of the steel post. Khali to the floor and as HHH charges him from the apron he gets swatted down. Both men back in now, and Khali has the vise grip again. HHH with body shots, but he starts to fall. HHH now battles back to his feet, breaks the hold but Khali gets it again. Boots by HHH, Khali tosses him to the corner, HHH avoids a charge, kick wham pedigree. That's all.

Winner: HHH @ 10:00 via pin
