Disclose Notes: With the final contest looming, the score stands Grandmaster-2 The Unknown-1. Shamrock triumphs in the last conflict and the Grandmaster is declared the winner for the final part of the story. The only problem is that Shamrock was on The Unknown's team which would have made the battles tied.
