(Samoa Joe retained the Global World Title.)

Joe has once again retained the belt. Joe holds up the belt over his head and that masked man is standing on the ramp again, just watching Joe. Joe turns around and he walks back up the ramp before Joe can glance him too much.

hurray for London retaining.  Of course, CM Punk wouldn't have made a bad champion by any means. :)  I'm also glad Joe won, I just can't get behind Tomko in the least.
