Wardlow shakes his hand, but then doesn't let go as he laughs at him and hits a Powerbomb! The symphony then begins, and Wardlow plays to it by hitting a second Powerbomb.

Things aren't over though as he hits another three, and puts his foot on MJF for the win...but no. Wardlow pulls his own foot away before the three count, and he hits a sixth Powerbomb.
