Nitro climbed up the cage, but Hardy followed him up. Nitro got one leg out of the cage, but Hardy grabbed him by the hair and pulled him back in.

By the time the ref moved her and unlocked the door, Nitro was coming down the cage, right over the door. Hardy dropkicked the door, it swung open, and Nitro crotched himself on the top of the door. With Nitro crotched on the door, Hardy crawled out of it and got to the floor for the win at the fifteen minute mark.

Edge measured Triple H for a spear, but Triple H moved out of the way and Edge hit the corner.

Triple H went for a Pedigree on Edge. Orton ran in with a chair, in front of the referee, looked like he was about to hit Triple H, then turned around and ran back out without using it. That was bizarre. Triple H hit a weak pedigree on Edge, and Edge kicked out of it. Shawn Michaels got into the ring, ran across it, and hit Orton with a tope on the other side. Michaels then grabbed the referee and decked him. Michaels and Triple H then grabbed some chairs and beat the crap out of Edge and Orton. Orton was a bloody mess. DX cleared off both of the announce tables. Triple H set up Edge for a pedigree on one table, while Michaels put Orton on the other. Triple H gave Edge a pedigree on the table, but the table didn't break. Triple H pointed at Michaels, and Michaels came off the top rope with an elbowdrop, putting Orton through the table (that one did break) at the twenty four minute mark. I think I could see a huge gash in Ortons head from the chair shot and he was a damn mess. Michaels and HHH (helped walking) then celebrated and walked off triumphant.

Results: No contest I think

Aftermath:
This match went to hell as soon as HHH hurt his knee, HBK tried to help it and make a great ending, it was as if no one was sure what to do, quite funny actually. This might say alot about who runs things in the ring. This could be very bad for the near future of DX as HHH was in alot of pain and could hardly do anything. I am wondering if their are not pain killers aorund the ring as he seemed to suck it up in the end and continue on, although slowly but with not as much pain. If their was no pain killer, he has balls.

HHH was helped to the top of the ramp with HBK, they did their pose then HHH was helped out the back.


Backstage:
Grisham calls the ending to the World Tag Team Match controversial. Then Cena comes in and Grisham asks him if he can beat the unbeaten Umaga.
