1 -- C.M. PUNK vs. MIKE KNOX -- non-title match
The former love interests of Kelly Kelly locked up with Punk working on Knox with an arm bar. Knox then came back with an elevated dropkick for a close nearfall. Knox then started working on the left arm until Punk came back with a round of kicks that cleared Knox to the floor. Punk then hit a springboard plancha before they cut to a break.

They returned with Knox in control in the ring. Knox settled into a reverse chinlock on the mat before knocking Punk down with a shoulder block. He then went back to a chinlock. And a third one. Punk finally made his full comeback and nailed a charging knee to the face. He went for the bulldog, but Knox moved. Knox tried to answer with a big kick, but Punk ducked and hoisted Knox up for the Go 2 Sleep and the win.
WINNER: Punk in 15:00. That dragged and dragged and dragged. (One drag for each reverse chinlock.) Crowd wasn't into the action and Knox did nothing to build up any heat as the heel on the offensive for the majority of the match. (3/4*)
They cut backstage where Balls Mahoney was walking backstage looking quite nervous. Styles and Tazz plugged Tommy Dreamer vs. Elijah Burke for tonight to determine the #1 Contender to Punk. They aired a video package on Dreamer's journey from the Heyman ECW to today's ECW.

[Q3]
Balls Mahoney came to the ring and they recapped Mahoney popping the question to Kelly last week, only to have The Miz interrupt before Kelly could give an answer. Balls then cut a promo about people telling him he might be lovesick right now. He said Miz's time would come for his revenge down the line, but he needs an answer from Kelly tonight. Kelly's music hit and Balls pumped his fist in celebration. Kelly then came to the ring with her big teddy bear and Balls repeated his question. Kelly bit her lip and surveyed the crowd, then took the mic and said yes. And everyone is happy ... Until Miz's music hit.
Miz walked out with Leyla and Brooke and Miz asked Kelly if she was for real. Miz said the date to Mickey D's isn't going to work for Kelly. Miz said it's been fun and games, but it's time to go. Miz grabbed Kelly by the hand and tried to get her to leave, but Balls punched Miz in the head. Miz bailed with Leyla and Brooke as Kelly held off Balls from going after Miz again. Miz then cut a promo about now owning the contracts to Extreme Expose. He said if Kelly doesn't join him, she would be out of EE and out of ECW. Kelly was torn as Balls pleaded his case for her to stay with him. Kelly reluctantly left the ring and left with Miz's entourage while continually looking back at Balls to apologize.
