The pyro hits, and Michael Cole welcomes us to the show. The set looks pretty much exactly like it did last year, but it's still a pretty impressive looking set.

- Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston make their way out to the ring to a nice pop from the crowd, and it looks like we're going to have a WWE Tag Team Championship match added to the card.

It looks as though the opponents for Air Boom this evening will be Primo and Epico, and they make their way out to the ring with Rosa Mendes in tow.

Sledgehammer Ladder Match
Kevin Nash vs. Triple H

The sledge hammer is shown hanging over the ring, although it doesn't look to be hung nearly as high as these things normally are. Nash's music hits, and Big Daddy Cool makes his way out to the ring to a bit of a reaction from the crowd. I don't know what it is but they seem to be sitting on their hands during all of the heel intros, and even some of the face intros.

After a bit of a pause after Nash's music dies, Triple H makes his way out to the ring to the biggest pop of the night so far. Hunter makes his way down to the ring, and again, just like during the tables match, the entrance way is lined with ladders on both sides the whole way down. Something tells me they won't need nearly that many ladders for this match.

Nash goes to attack Hunter right off the bat at the bell, but Hunter turns it around, peppering Nash with rights in the corner. Nash responds by hitting Hunter with a couple of big elbows to the side of the head, so Hunter comes right back with huge rights to the side of Nash's face.

Nash slides a ladder into the ring, and when he turns around, Triple H comes at him, leaping off the announce table with a flying forearm and slamming his forearm into Nash's face.

Nash crosses back over into the ringside area, shoulders Triple H, and sends him crashing face first into the barricade before bringing him back and slamming him into the ring steps.

Hunter turns to Nash's knee, kicking him hard before sending him back into the ring, grabbing another ladder and bringing it in with him.

Hunter takes the ladder and uses it to slam Nash's knee repeatedly. Nash falls to the mat clutching his knee, and Hunter holds on to the ladder, taking it over and driving it into Nash's knee hard twice. Hunter tosses the ladder to the mat and grabs Nash's leg, sandwiching it in the ladder and stomping away hard at the knee.

Hunter wraps the ladder around Nash's leg and drapes it over his body, locking in a figure four with Nash's legs caught up in the ladder.

Nash takes the monitors out and turns back around to Triple H. Nash goes for a jackknife powerbomb, but Hunter back body drops Nash over the table, avoiding the move. Hunter rolls back into the ring.

Hunter sets up the ladder in the middle of the ring, and he begins climbing. Nash catches him from behind and pulls him off the ladder, delivering a clothesline to lay him out. Nash props up the ladder in the corner, whipping Hunter into it. Triple H comes out of the corner, and he's met with a hand to the throat, as Nash delivers a chokeslam.

Nash sets up the table before taking down the straps on his singlet. Nash pulls Hunter over toward the table and tries for another powerbomb, but Hunter drives him back into the ladder propped in the corner. Hunter grabs the ladder and uses it to drive into Nash's injured knee. Hunter sets up the ladder in the middle of the ring again.

With Nash on the outside Hunter begins the climb. Nash makes it back into the ring and begins climbing up the other side. Nash and Hunter fight at the top of the ladder and Hunter uses the sledge hammer, still hanging from the roof, to drive into Nash's head, sending him sailing from the ladder and through the table in the ring. Hunter looks up and grabs the sledge hammer, bringing it down from the ceiling.

Hunter makes his way down to the mat and uses the hammer to hit Nash's knee, driving it home repeatedly. Hunter tosses the ladder out of the ring and stands over Nash, seething. Hunter looks out to the crowd to a ton of cheers, and he tosses the hammer to the side. Hunter goes for the pedigree and Nash falls to the mat, so Hunter pulls him up and makes sure to deliver the pedigree properly.

The crowd chants for one more, but Hunter shakes his head and walks over to grab the sledge hammer. When he turns around, Nash is holding up the Wolfpac sign, but it doesn't matter, as Triple H tells him to 'suck it' and drives the hammer into Nash's head, dropping him to the mat for the three count.

Winner: Triple H

Following the match, medics are down and they load Nash on to a backboard, strapping his neck in securely before transferring him over to a stretcher to take him to the back. Lawler says something about what goes around comes around.

Backstage:

We go backstage where Matt Striker is standing alongside CM Punk. He says Punk had an interesting experience with his challengers last Monday, and we get a recap of Alberto Del Rio and the Miz beating Punk down before their match tonight. Striker asks for Punks thoughts. Punk says he had six days to watch this footage, and as painful as it was, there was something more painful. More painful than sitting through two hours of Cole commentary. He says what he saw was Johnny Ace accept an award on his behalf, and it was for Superstar of the Year. And he's not received his Slammy yet. Ace comes in and says he mailed the Slammy, but it's the holiday season, so it might be a while. Ace says Punk should be more worried about his match tonight. He wishes Punk luck tonight and a Merry Christmas. Punk says luck is for losers before walking out.

Sheamus vs. Jack Swagger

The bell rings and we get a quick lock up. Swagger breaks and lays into Sheamus with a couple of strikes. Sheamus tells him to bring it on and hits him with a big clothesline. Sheamus drops it up with a couple of big elbow drops to Swagger, then takes him to the corner to beat on him for a while before hitting a big shoulder block. Sheamus sends Swagger into the ropes, and Swagger is able to turn it around into an abdominal stretch, but Sheamus is quick to fight it off, tie Swagger up in the ropes, and hit him with repeated clubbing blows to the chest before just tossing him to the outside.
