Winner via pinfall: CM Punk

Punk and Mysterio embraced after the match and Regal mockingly clapped at ringside.

A promo for the Royal Rumble aired.

Jeff Hardy was shown backstage. Hardy said that he will show everyone tonight that he's ready to be WWE Champion.

A video was shown recapping the JBL - Shawn Michaels feud. JBL then came to the ring sans the black eye.

JBL introduced us to his newest employee . . . Shawn Michaels. HBK came to the ring and took the mic. He said that the economy has hit us all hard and said he spent all his money when he was in his 20s, and in his 30s he spent a lot of money on his medical expenses. He said 10 years ago he got married and started investing in the market. He said it wouldn't have been a big deal 20 years ago, but now he doesn't know how much time he has left and he has a family to support. He then noted that's why he took JBL on his offer, even though he finds him reprehensible. However, JBL is good financially and that's what he needs. He doesn't want to be one of those guys that ends up working at a grocery store or wrestling at a high school gym and he will not allow himself to become a wrestling tragedy. He said if being booed is the price he has to pay, then he'll pay it. The crowd started chanting "You Sold Out". Michaels said that he didn't want to do this but had to, and then JBL took the mic away from him. He then put his hand out and Michaels shook it to end the segment. This seems reminiscent of the Ted Dibiase - Virgin feud from the early 90s.

Eve interviewed Randy Orton backstage and asked what his strategy was for Batista tonight and before he could answer, Cody Rhodes came out and answered for him. Manu followed up with a weak promo of his own and then Orton walked away.

Some of the Buffalo Bills were shown at ringside.

Belfast Brawl
Finlay vs. Mark Henry

Matt Striker noted that the only way to win this match was by pinfall or submission. Both men brawled inside and outside the ring. Finally Finlay got the advantage and then went outside the ring and started throwing a bunch of weapons in the ring, including trash cans and kendo sticks. As he got in the ring, Henry nailed Finlay with a trash can lid. Henry then worked Finlay over with a variety of power moves.

Finlay finally gained the advantage and delivered some kendo stick shots and trash can shots and got a two count.
