VTR: The match opens by Jack Victory getting the upper-hand by attacking Fun before the bell, and as a result he gets near Pin after near pin on Funk, but Funk stands his ground and fights back, knocking out Victory and covering him for the three count: 1-2-3!
The ref counts, and at the 8-count, Victory stands up but collapses, the REF RAISES FUNKS HAND, HE WINS THIS TEXAS DEATH MATCH AND IS ON HIS WAY TO ANOTHER ONE VERSUS KAMALA!
