World Heavyweight Championship Ladder Match
Edge (c) vs. Jeff Hardy (Ladder Match)

These guys aren't left with much time, thanks to Cena and Big Show. With the lack of time, they went right for the ladders early.

Both guys did some innovative things. At one point, Edge had Hardy under a ladder and got him in a sharpshooter, causing Hardy to tap, but it doesn't count.

Later in the match, Hardy hit a whisper in the wind from on top of one of the bigger ladders. Later in the match, Hardy laid a ladder out from the ring to the ring barrier and laid Edge face down in it. Hardy then climbed a ladder, but Edge recovered and met Hardy at the top of the ladder and both men fell through the ladder that was laid down.

Back in the ring, Hardy climbed a smaller ladder while Edge went up a larger one. Edge went to spear Hardy from the larger ladder to the smaller ladder, but Hardy reversed it in mid-air into a twist of fate. Hardy started to climb the ladder again, but Edge met him at the top and knocked him off. Hardy then grabbed Edge's legs and pulled him through one of the steps and Edge got caught. Hardy then grabbed the belt to win the match!
