SES Pledge vs. Punk's Hair

They setup a barber's chair at ringside. Punk got the early advantage, and backdropped Mysterio outside of the ring. Mysterio hit a hurricaranna outside of the ring and drove Punk face first into the barricade. Back in the ring, Punk regained the advantage and threw Mysterio out of the ring face first into the barber's chair outside the ring. Punk was busted open, and the referee paused the match to wipe the blood off of Punk. Another official came in to close the cut on Punk's forehead as Mysterio recovered outside of the ring.

Mysterio got back in the ring while Punk was still being attended to. The fans started chanting "Boring." Punk quickly got back on offense as soon as the match was started and threw Mysterio out of the ring. He threw Mysterio into the barricade and suplexed him on the floor before getting him back into the ring and applying s body triangle.

Mysterio was able to briefly get in some offense before Punk regained control. Punk dropped forearms to Mysterio's chest. On a side note, Jerry Lawler seems legitimately very annoyed with Matt Striker on commentary.

Later in the match, Mysterio went for a 619, but Punk reversed it into a backbreaker and got a two count. Punk went for GTS, but Mysterio countered but Punk caught him in a powerbomb and dropped him into the corner. Punk then hit a bulldog from the top rope for another two count. Punk landed a variety of kicks for another two count.

The finish of the match saw Mysterio finally hitting the 619 on his third attempt, but missed the follow up splash. Punk was going to roll on Mysterio for a cover, but Mysterio scissored Punk's arms and rolled him up for a three count.

Rey Mysterio defeated CM Punk.

After the match, the SES entered the ring and beat down Mysterio. They were going to handcuff Mysterio to the ropes, but Kane's music hit and he got to the ring and cleared it of the SES. Mysterio then handcuffed Punk to the ropes and proceeded to shave his head.
