Orton gets control with a tight headlock on his protégé. But Orton’s cockiness gets the best of him as Ted gets control with a set of punches and dropkicks that sends Orton to the outside of the ring.
Back in the ring, Orton has reapplied a headlock to DiBiase. Orton starts stalking his prey with his trademark stomp to the body parts of DiBiase. But as DiBiase fights back, Orton starts showing emotions and anger in the fact that his protégé continues to fight back.
After second guessing himself for a moment, Orton drops Ted with his patented DDT…but Ted kicks out not once, but twice. But TJ fights out of the assault with a back suplex. TJ hits the elbow followed by a flying elbow off the top rope.
Despite getting a two-count, Ted continues to fight back. After a backbreaker, Orton decides that hitting the RKO would be a bad thing, but goes for it anyway. Following a backslide, Ted delivers a power slam, but only gets a two-count.
Orton counters Dream Street into the RKO to pick up the win over his protégé. But instead of checking on his partner, he walks away from the ring. But before he does, he salutes his partner.
In the back, Triple H makes it clear that tonight’s match, though epic, is about getting even with Randy Orton and taking the WWE Championship from the Legend Killer.
Intermission: MVP’s VIP Lounge
MVP starts off by talking about the trade that Donald Trump made before he sold the company back to Vince McMahon. With that, MVP introduces his guest: Jack Swagger.
MVP starts off by calling Swagger a fraud for getting himself counted out last week against Randy Orton in his debut. Swagger then rebuttals by saying that MVP is nothing more than a fraud and a con.
MVP then admits that he did make some bad decisions. With that, MVP starts losing his bling and his shirt and makes it clear that, unlike Swagger, he has never been afraid of a fight.
The two stare down before Swagger makes an excuse before leaving the ring. MVP makes it clear that if he ever wants to find his manhood and step up to the Franchise Playa, he can find him in the VIP Lounge.
In the back, Ted Jr. is chastising his father for putting him in the match, claiming that he set him up to fail. With that, he slaps the taste out of his mouth before he tells him “Thanks a lot…Dad!” and walks out of the office.
Kofi Kingston vs. Evan Bourne
The two start the match by sizing each other up. The two challenge each other before Kingston gets control with a single leg Boston Crab. He follows it up with a headlock, but Bourne gets control with leg scissors.
Kingston continues the pressure with a corner cross body, but Bourne gets the advantage by blocking the cross body and landing the Airbourne to pick up the upset win over the United States Champion.
Following the win, both men show respect before getting interrupted by the Big Show. Kingston tells Bourne to leave the ring, but Bourne stays in a corner.
Show comes in and takes the fight to Kingston. But Bourne tries to fight the World’s Largest Athlete before getting tossed to the other side of the ring. Show spears Bourne before punching the lights out of Kofi Kingston.
