Later in the match, Finlay tried to use the shillelagh but Henry broke it in half. Finlay tried to use a kendo stick and Henry broke that as well. Hornswoggle ran down to ringside, but Henry shoved Finlay into him and Hornswoggle then went other the ring. Henry continued to work Finlay over and then grabbed the steel steps and threw them in the ring but Finlay was able to dropkick Henry and Henry dropped the steps. Hornsoggle came back from under the ring and threw a shillelagh to Finlay, who used it on Henry and got the pin. Not a great match, but much better than the other matches the two have had.
Winner via pinfall: Finlay
A promo for the WWE Tribute To The Troops on NBC aired.
Backstage the divas were decorating a X-Mas tree until Santa Haas came in and started to give them presents. Santino and Beth Phoenix came in to spoil the party, but found the Boogeyman in one of the gifts. As the tried to leave, Goldust was in the door. Before you knew it, IRS, Festus and some refs came in and they all started singing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" . . . including the Boogeyman. They're doing segments like this too often, but it worked here.
Mr. Kennedy did a promo telling kids not to do drugs and to check out his new DVD.
Batista vs. Randy Orton
Batista came out first, and Orton then came out with Rhodes and Manu. Orton got a big pop, which seems to be common lately.
Early on Orton threw Batista outside the ring and Rhodes and Manu started beating on him, prompting the referee to send Rhodes and Manu to the back.
At one point Orton charged Batista and Batista moved, sending Orton flying over the top rope and landing similar to the time he got his shoulder injury. Not this time though, and Orton was able to quickly regain the advantage with that DDT while the opponent's feet are on the ropes move. He then followed it up with the chinlock of doom, which he held onto for awhile.
There is a surprising lack of heat in this match, especially considering who's involved. Late in the match, Batista hit a spinebuster and got a two count. He then went for the Batista bomb, but Orton reversed for the RKO, but Batista pushed him off and slammed him to the mat. He then went for a spear but met Orton's foot. Orton hit the neckbreaker for another two count. Orton positioned himself to get the RKO, but Batista caught him for another slam and a two count. Orton got up and hit a DDT and then went for the punt, but Batista caught him and worked away on Orton in the corner. Orton tried to pull him off, but Batista had him caught and hit a Batista bomb and got the three count. Pretty good match due to the last five minutes.
