Randy Orton vs. Shane McMahon
Shane attacks Randy through the crowd as we start clotheslining Orton over the top to the floor before the bell. They fight back to the stage area, and Shane delivers a series of lefts and rights. To the crowd they go, and Orton regains control temporarily. Shane fights back eventually firing Orton over the barricade to the ringside area. Shane dives off the barricade delivering a clothesline to Orton, and then clears off the announce table. Shane sets up Orton on the table, and goes to the top rope. Legacy runs in to put a stop to that, and starts the beatdown on Shane. They hold Shane up as Orton delivers a series of blows, but that brings MVP out to make an attempted save. Eventually the numbers overwhelm MVP, and Legacy beats him down firing him to the floor. Back to Shane they go for the beatdown, but Batista comes out with spears and clotheslines for Dibiase and Rhodes as Orton slides to the floor. Vickie Guerrero comes out to make an announcement stating that her main event will not be jeopardized. Later tonight Shane will face Orton, and since everyone wants to get involved we'll make it legal. Tonight Batista will face Dibiase, and Cody will face MVP. Whoever wins can join Shane and Orton in their match. Bait, meet switch.
No Match

Matt Hardy vs. Kofi Kingston
Matt comes out milking his "broken hand" as he continues his Cowboy Bob Orton v 2.0 gimmick. Cole drives the point home stating that many think Matt doesn't really have a broken hand. Matt again states he is wrestling under protest because he's being forced to wrestle with a broken hand. They trade hammerlocks at the outset, and Matt gets the break by reaching the ropes. Matt grabs an armwringer, and takes Kofi down by the hair. Kofi flips out and chops the injured hand, so Matt slides to the floor. Back inside Kofi delivers a shot sending Matt into the corner. Kofi goes for a rollup getting a two count, and Matt comes back with a knee. Kofi goes to the second rope for a crossbody, but that misses and Matt takes control with a few kicks to the ribs. Matt drops Kofi down on the top rope getting a two count, and follows up with a vertical suplex for another two. Matt goes for another suplex, but Kofi counters into a neckbreaker. Kofi delivers a pair of knife Edge chops, and a dropkick. A springboard crossbody off the second rope connects, and is followed by a jumping clothesline from Kofi. Double legdrop hits for Kingston, but Matt is out at two. Kofi hits the ropes, and stops a backdrop attempt with a kick. Trouble in Paradise connects giving Kofi the victory at 4:13. Afterward Matt attacks Kofi laying him out with a shot from the cast. Matt played up a lot of old school chickenshit heel tactics in this one, and while I like the old school feel to it and the way Matt is playing the role, the match wasn't all that great.
Winner: Kofi Kingston (Pinfall-Trouble In Paradise *1/2)
