The high-flying Hardy threw everything he had at The Game and at one stage looked as if he had done enough to snatch the gold.
After landing a Swantom Bomb, Hardy rolled for the pin which was expertly reversed by Triple H.
The Game used all of his strength to keep Hardy down for the three-count and at the same time ensured he regained his most prized possession.
After the match the Moscow Mauler, Vladimir Kozlov, was on hand to 'congratulate' Triple H sparking speculation over further confrontation between the two.
