At the end of the leg, the player is supposed to be eliminated by being stripped naked and hit by mousetraps launched at him/her, but due to Rodney Mullen spotting a mathematical error in the teams points, the player has to compete with Eric - the loser will be eliminated from the tour. After causing chaos in Bangkok (the skaters were en route to Australia, but Chad Muska suggested a stop in Thailand), the Tour lands in Australia (actually, Bam's team arrives later due to departure problems that make them wind up in India). At that moment, an underground film 'writer, producer, director' by the name of Nigel Beaverhausen wishes to bring the tour to the public but instead winds up being humiliated by Tony and Bam. The next leg of the Tour is the German capital, Berlin, where Sparrow and the player are swapped back. At that time though, word had spread out about the World Destruction Tour, which was supposed to be a low-profile event but now is appearing on TV news. Later on, in Barcelona, Tony's team takes the lead again however, the punishment for Team Bam was to have the rookies of each team swapped (in this case, the player and Eric Sparrow, which moves from Team Bam to Team Hawk, much to Bam's relief, and Tony's annoyance). As a result, it was determined that one of Hawk's teammates should be eliminated, and this fate fell over Bob Burnquist. The tour starts off in Boston, where Bam manages a last-minute win thanks to one of Paulie's stunts (he dumped a port-a-potty in the sea with someone inside), which surpassed the advantage Team Hawk had at the time. The skaters then split into two teams - Team Hawk and Team Bam - and the player joins Team Hawk.

The final goal of the Tour is that the losing team has to pay for everything. Then, Bam Margera and Tony Hawk explain their plans for the first annual World Destruction Tour, a 'sick-as-hell' around-the-world skateboarding tour. Two people wearing hockey masks kidnap the player and take him to a dark room with other skaters like Eric Sparrow, Bob Burnquist, and Mike Vallely, among others. A van shows up in the middle of the ramp and the player slams into the van. The game opens with the player skating at home (the New Jersey neighborhood from the previous game) one year (according to the official BradyGames strategy guide) after the events of Tony Hawk's Underground. The term 'player' refers to the main character of the story. The following applies to Tony Hawk's Underground 2 when the game is played in story mode.
