 Despite being checked on by officials. Van Dam fought on and was able to kick out of a Chokeslam and a Last Ride and would deliver the five-star frog splash on the World Champion to get the pinfall victory and the World Heavyweight Title!.

September 12. 2002
Just a week ago. Billy and Chuck were engaged for a wedding ceremony, but as soon as the wedding proceeded and a couple of surprises from The Godfather & His Hoes. Billy and Chuck started to denounce their commitment saying that they weren't gay and that they had nothing about gay people and that it was a publicity stunt. They would fire Rico as their manager, and soon after. The Preacher announced that Billy & Chuck's bond was sacred, and it didn't matter if the sacred lasted years, hours or three minutes. Then suddenly, the Preacher's Real Voice said this "Wait A Minute, Did I Just Hear Myself Say Three Minutes?. Then suddenly it was Eric Bischoff in prosphetics, it cut to backstage where RAW's Triple H & the nWo and mostly half of the RAW Roster all showed up to attack the entire SMACKDOWN locker room with chairs and sledgehammers and weapons, then in the ring. Jamal & Rosey showed up to attack Billy & Chuck with Rico turning on them as well, they then tied Billy & Chuck to the ropes so that they can watch what they would do to Stephanie McMahon.
 Triple H alongside the nWo and half of the RAW Roster invaded SMACKDOWN to attack the entire SMACKDOWN Roster.
 Jamal then picked Stephanie up and hit her with a Samoan Drop and just as soon as Rosey was about to seal the deal. The Undertaker, Edge & Rey Mysterio who were not in the locker room they had just finished up their 6-Man Tag Team Match against Brock Lesnar, Chris Benoit & Eddie Guerrero were able to chase off Jamal & Rosey.
 The show went off the air with Eric Bischoff's sick sadistic smile as he, Jamal, Rosey, Rico, Triple H & the nWo & the rest of the RAW Roster stared down at the entire SMACKDOWN Roster!.
