Afterwards another match was announced and the two went on to defeat the current champions at a Taping on May 16, 2001, to go after their second title win. The titles were then vacated on July 14, 2001 after Benjamin suffered an injury. The Bolin Services defeated The Disciples of Synn on August 15, 2001 in a tournament finals.
