DZ rose to his feet slowly only to be hit by the champs other moves. dz tried but soon got hit by chris's signature move and was in position for chris's finisher. at the last minute dz was able to fight his way out of the finisher and land a stunner on chris but couldnt capitalize on it. they both got up dz tried to land his finisher the Double Z on chris but got thrown over the ropes and to arena floor, landing hard. the ref started the count as dz tried to get up and get back into the ring before the 10 count. 

dz barely made it in time into the ring but walked right into chris finisher and he was out cold. 

in the back the dark woods circus was watching the match with amused looks. "he looks like fun" chimera said. the chairman smiled as chris made the cover. "yes he does. we will be watching him." 

DZ had lost fair and square as the crown went wild for chris's victory. dz rolled out of the ring and walked and started towards the back there always a next time.
