''The official has decided that Adam Cole has been Disqualified and Daniel Bryan wins the match''. Fans boo and cheer this result and Adam is pissed. Daniel keeps his title but so does Cole. He can't be that pissed off because he didn't lose his belt but he wanted to become EAM World Champion as well.

Cole then looks shocked with what he's done...turns around....BAAAAAM RUNNING KNEE + FROM DANIEL BRYAN!!!. He gets some revenge for what Cole did. Daniel starts yessing with the fans and grabs both titles and holds them high. He could hurt Cole even more but it shows just how much of a nice guy Daniel is. Daniel celebrates on the top rope with fans going wild. May have even been a MOTY candidate like Ambrose/Angle. He throws Cole's belt at him and starts yessing over him. The show ends with bodies laid out everywhere and Daniel Bryan the last man standing holding the EAM title high.
(Even though it makes sense unifying both I really didn't wanna do it or at least yet. Both just got belts and it would've been bad for both careers. Would of made sense for Daniel winning both because he just won his but Cole hasn't really been champ that long. Because of the result I wanted to do a strong match so fans wouldn't be that pissed off. Also added craziness at the end so the fans could be happy and forget about the DQ. Both men looked good and it made Cole look really strong and a great heel when some might not think he's on Daniel's level yet. Didn't want Daniel looking weak because he is the champion so had him ending the show and getting some revenge on Cole and so the fans could go home happy. They could have another match in the future and wanted Ambrose/Angle involved since they're high on the rankings and it would add more craziness to the match. Cole attacked officials and Emil but I really hope he doesn't get stripped of the title. It would make sense of course but it would be cliched and make Emil look sort of weak and scared. Could just punish him somehow instead or give him a fine.)
