This match was the annual "feed CATS to a contender" duel, with Sonic taking in the benefits. However instead of this looking like Ansem vs CATS in which CATS actually did something early, it looked more like Cloud vs CATS. CATS took the lead for a few seconds, then got steamrolled through the rest of the match.

What this match meant depended on whether or not you believe the picture of CATS mattered. It's widely believed that Eggplant CATS and Face CATS have two different strengths, but what we saw here was a bit of a hybrid of the two.

That said:

2005 Sonic vs 2005 (Face) CATS: 75.01% for Sonic

2005 Sonic vs 2004 (Eggplant) CATS: 83.05% for Sonic

Where Sonic ended up seems to look like the percentage he was "supposed" to get on a hybrid of the two pics, but there really weren't any conclusions that could be drawn from this.
