He battled the Dudleys for control of his destiny -- then the Deadman sealed Paul Bearer's fate.
   The Undertaker was deeply conflicted during his a one-of-a-kind Handicap Match on Sunday against the WWE Tag Team Champions. His instincts told him to battle for his survival. Paul Heyman told him to take defeat (and a beating) for Paul Bearer's safety. And despite the most diabolical distraction of his entire career, ultimately the Phenom prevailed at The Great American Bash.
    But what followed not only shocked the Norfolk, Va., crowd, it shocked Heyman and Bearer as well: The Undertaker dropped to one knee, paid his final respects to his longtime confident and then pulled the cement truck lever himself.
    After uttering the words, "Rest in peace," the Deadman watched cement flow up Bearer's neck, then above his head, entombing him inside the Concrete Crypt. It was an ending to both Bearer and the pay-per-view that couldn't have been anticipated.
    Even before the shock of the Undertaker's actions, JBL stunned the sports entertainment world by delivering on both his promises. JBL beat Eddie Guerrero again. But at the Bash, he captured the WWE Championship, as well.
    Fan favorite Latino Heat seemed to have the Texas Bull Rope Match won. He touched the first three corners in succession mere seconds before JBL did the same, illuminating a red light above each turnbuckle. When he dove above JBL to smack the fourth and final corner -- seeing that last red light shine -- it appeared he had magnificently retained his title.
    But it was lights out for Guerrero after SmackDown! General Manager Kurt Angle made what he considered an unavoidable reversal of the referee's call. After further review, it was apparent to Angle that in fact, JBL had been the first to that final corner. Eddie's momentum actually forced JBL's back and shoulder into the corner before the champ's hand came down. JBL's four green lights signified to all that there was a new WWE Champion.
   The night wasn't any better for fellow family member Chavo Guerrero, who failed to pry the Cruiserweight Championship away from Rey Mysterio. John Cena also retained, outlasting Rob Van Dam, Rene Dupree and Booker T in an elimination Fatal Fourway Match.
Results:
U.S. Champion John Cena defeats RVD (first eliminated), Rene Dupree (2nd) and Booker T.
