(4) Extreme Rules Match: Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy. Jeff hit Matt with a framed Wrestlemania poster. Jeff attempted a whisper in the wind, but Matt answered him with a chair shot. Matt hit Jeff with a shop vac. Side effect by Matt on Jeff onto a chair, but only a two count. Jeff used crutches on Matt. In a corner, Jeff had a trash can over Matt's head and drop kicked it, but only could get a two count. Twist of fate by Matt, but a kick out by Jeff. Superplex by Jeff. Jeff put Matt on a table on the outside, and stacked up a table on top. Jeff came off the top rope onto the double ladder, crashing his brother through. Jeff brought Matt back in, but Matt got his foot on the rope to break a pin fall attempt. Jeff tried a leg drop from top of the ladder, but Matt moved out the way. With his brother's head in a chair, Matt hit a twist of fate and pinned Jeff at 13:13.

- Lilian Garcia introduces the IC title match.

(5) IC title match: JBL vs. Rey Mysterio. On the way to the ring (no limo tonight), JBL cuts a promo. JBL said he returned to Texas champion, as Texas doesn't have any champions. He said Houston needs hope, and along comes their hero JBL. JBL said he is going to beat Rey, and then fly back to New York City and still be their hero. Mysterio came out with a mask with green hair, kinda looked like a tribute to the Joker. JR pointed out that Rey has never been IC champion.

Before the match, JBL attacked Rey. Referee asked Rey if he wanted to continue, and rang the bell. Rey took it to JBL and beat him with a splash and won the match and the IC title in 21 seconds. JR said the IC title hadn't been defended in seven years? Sad.

After the match was over, and Rey left. JBL got back on the mic, "I got something to say," said JBL. "I QUIT," JBL yelled, and walked off. I guess that is historic.

- Shawn Michaels made his entrance coming down a platform that was high up on the WrestleMania stage. When it came down on the stage, a series of pyro went off and HBK made his way down the ramp. Jim Ross noted the irony of numbers pointing out that this is HBK's 16th WrestleMania and how The Undertaker is 16-0 at WrestleMania. The Undertaker made his entrance coming up from under the stage.
