Big Show def. Jeff Hardy Gail Kim def. Divas Champion Maryse John Morrison def. R-Truth Undertaker def. Shelton Benjamin Dolph Ziggler def. United States Champion Montel Vontavious Porter (non-title) Batista def. Ted DiBiase
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. With Backlash just nine days away, emotions ran high on the first edition of SmackDown since the 2009 WWE Draft. The Animal unleashed his rage on his Backlash opponent, Ted DiBiase, while WWE Champion Triple H vowed to do the same to Randy Orton this Monday on Raw.
Batista def. Ted DiBiase (PHOTOS | WATCH) Since making his surprise comeback on Raw, Batista has been full of pent up aggression. Tonight, it was his Backlash opponent, Ted DiBiase, who felt The Animals wrath. Batista dominated the first part of the match, delivering one punishing maneuver after another.
However, DiBiase was able to turn the tables and strike back, delivering targeted attacks to Batistas leg. But, The Animal regained momentum and dropped The Legacy member with a hard-hitting spear, followed up by a thunderous Batista Bomb for the win. In just nine days, they will meet again on the battle grounds at Backlash. (Preview)
Triple H reveals Raw match stipulations (PHOTOS | WATCH) With Randy Orton rehashing everything hes done to WWE Champion Triple H and his family, The Game revealed the stipulations to their one-on-one match this Monday on Raw no disqualifications and no count-outs. (Raw coverage | Backlash preview)
Big Show def. Jeff Hardy; Matt attacks Jeff (PHOTOS | WATCH) At 485 pounds, Big Show simply crushed the high-flying Jeff Hardy. During the match, Matt Hardy came down to ringside to witness the action. While Big Show was down on all fours, Jeff seized the opportunity, using Shows massive back as a springboard to launch himself over the ropes, toppling Matt.
In the end, Jeff was able to down his brother, but not The Worlds Largest Athlete, who stopped the Charismatic Enigma cold with a brutal right hand. After the match, Matt launched a vicious and ugly attack on his brother, hitting him with seven consecutive leg drops while he lay defenseless from Big Shows brutal assault.
Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy announced New SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long announced that Jeff Hardy will face his brother Matt Hardy in an I Quit Match at Backlash. (Preview)
Undertaker def. Shelton Benjamin (PHOTOS) Borrowing one from Undertakers arsenal, Shelton Benjamin attempted to deliver a Tombstone to The Deadman. The maneuver failed miserably, resulting in Benjamin being the recipient of the punishing maneuver at the hands of The Phenom. Coming off huge wins at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania and last nights debut of WWE Superstars, can anyone stop The Phenom?
Dolph Ziggler def. United States Champion Montel Vontavious Porter (non-title) (PHOTOS) After being drafted to SmackDown, perhaps Dolph Ziggler felt he had to make an impression in the land of SmackDown. He did just that by defeating the United States Champion.
The View & MVP? In an interesting exchange in the locker room area, SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long told MVP that Sherri Shepherd of the TV program The View had taken an interest in the champion. Holla, Holla, Holla! What does Teddy have in store for the former SmackDown Superstar who was drafted to Raw?
John Morrison def. R-Truth (PHOTOS) After The Miz assaulted John Morrison on Raw, its a safe bet that their tag team days are behind them. Looking to make an impression on Friday nights, The Tuesday Night Delight did not disappoint when he stopped R-Truths valiant attempts at a win with a Moonlight Drive.
Gail Kim def. Divas Champion Maryse (non-title) (PHOTOS | WATCH) In a bout featuring two of WWEs most athletic Divas, Gail Kim kept her winning ways intact by dazing Maryse with some hard-hitting counters for the pinfall.
Khali Kiss Cam (PHOTOS | WATCH) The Great Khali was up to his romantic ways on another edition of the Khali Kiss Cam. The Punjabi Playboy planted a wet one on a lovely member of the WWE Universe. The next recipient of his affection? None other than Miss WrestleMania Santina Marella next week on SmackDown. This ought to be good!
As reported last week, Dolph Ziggler suffered an apparent collarbone injury in a match with Sim Snuka at the WrestleMania Axxess event mere hours before WrestleMania. It wasn't his only injury coming out of the match as he was busted open as well, resulting in a noticeable scar above his lip. A battered-looking Ziggler was at the annual post-WrestleMania party held later that day. Ziggler is apparently fine as he was able to compete in a match the very next day. He also took part in a match this past Tuesday at the SmackDown taping.
Nash Calls AJ Styles The Best Athlete In Pro Wrestling
Here are some highlights from TNA star Kevin Nashs appearance on Ring Posts Live with Kevin Eck and Nestor Aparicio Wednesday afternoon on WNST 1570 AM from Baltimore. He promoted this Sundays TNA Lockdown 2009 PPV.
On the next generation of TNA stars: "I think Robert Roode is a really, really talented guy. I think he's a natural babyface, although he's working heel right now. He's just solid. He's a combination of Rick Rude and Curt Hennig. He's a real good technical wrestler and everything he does is solid. Motor City Machine Guns -- I watched them do 25 minutes in the Tokyo Dome in January and was just amazed at how athletic and what an incredible pace that those two guys go. You got 'Black Machismo' Jay Lethal, a really fiery young babyface, a lot of athleticism. There's Samoa Joe. You have A.J. [Styles]. I don't think there's really a better athlete in the business right now than A.J. Some of the things he can do reminds me of Shawn [Michaels] in his peak years, as far as athleticism."
On the Main Event Mafia clicking with viewers: "Whether it's The Horsemen, the nWo, the Main Event Mafia or DeGeneration X, it always seems like a faction, especially a heel faction, seems to work. The problems the babyfaces always have is that they're always fighting amongst themselves, and you get four or five guys that have a common goal to be the deterrent to them, I think storyline-wise it's easy for a wrestling fan to go, 'OK, that doesn't insult my intelligence. Five guys beating two makes sense.' "
On TNA using veterans on top while also trying to build new stars: "A couple weeks ago, we did a thing where The Motor City Machine Guns came down and interacted with The Main Event Mafia, and I thought [Alex] Shelley came in and was brilliant on the mic. I just think that the more that we interact with them [the better]. I think the biggest problem booking-wise is that the young guys are so athletically gifted and -- I'll just use me as an example -- they have to work around me. I'm not ashamed to say it. I'll be 50 in July. You know, I'd love to pass the torch, to be that first generation of guys that makes stars. And we've got some guys that are ready."
On the staph infection in his elbow: "It looked like a gunshot wound even a month ago. It just looked the thing was never going to heal. We have a young surgeon that helps us at TNA, and about a month ago at TV he said, 'I can close that.' A week ago Thursday he surgically went in and put the thing back together. I won't be a hundred percent, but I'm definitely wrestling on Sunday."
Kelly Kelly has been named "Wrestling's Sexiest Woman" in Pro Wrestling Illustrated's annual "PWI Poll" issue. The Raw Diva is also featured on the cover of the magazine, which is now available on newsstands. The final voting results are as follows:
Kelly Kelly - 26% Velvet Sky - 17% Mickie James - 12% Angelina Love - 10% Maria - 9% Maryse - 8% Michelle McCool - 5% Others - 13%

- TNA issued a second text message earlier today announcing the signing of "another former world champion from another organization."
As previously reported, a similar text message was sent during yesterday's broadcast of TNA iMPACT. The two text messages could be for the same person, but the word "another" indicates there was another signing.
It would be safe to assume that Taz is one of the signees that TNA is referring to. Unlike Ric Flair, Taz did not have a no-compete clause in his contract. Regardless of who it is, we will keep you updated.

- ECW wrestler DJ Gabriel's future is said to be very much in doubt following the departure of his manager Alicia Fox to Smackdown in the Supplemental Draft. In a trivia note, Gabriel has not competed in a singles match on an episode of ECW on Sci Fi in over a month since March 10th.
- Shawn Michaels, who has not been seen since his epic match at Wrestlemania, is currently taking some time off. That was actually the plan before the PPV.
- Undertaker was at last week's Smackdown/ECW double taping in Austin, Texas but wasn't used. However, he is scheduled full-time from this point forward.
John Morrison def. Evan Bourne Vladimir Kozlov def. Local Athlete Tommy Dreamer eliminated from Elimination Chase to Backlash Triple Threat Match involving Finlay and Christian
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Less than two weeks before Backlash, change was in the air in the Land of the Extreme. Its roster was altered by the departure of The Miz and the arrival of the gigantic Vladimir Kozlov, sitting on the brink of more additions and subtractions with the ensuing Supplemental Draft just more than 12 hours away. But the self-proclaimed face of ECW, champion Jack Swagger, looked to stop change before it infects Backlash and his status atop the Extreme brand.
John Morrison def. Evan Bourne (WATCH | PHOTOS) Only 24 hours after losing his tag team partner and fellow Dirt Sheet host in The Miz, John Morrison scored an impressive win against the high-flying Evan Bourne. Despite losing the Superstar who helped him win a World Tag Team Championship, the Tuesday Night Delight proved once again he is as sharp in solo competition as he was when he earned the ECW Title.
Vladimir Kozlov def. Local Athlete (PHOTOS) ECWs newest addition only has about a minute of experience performing for the brand, but thats all Vladimir Kozlov needed to polish off a win in his Tuesday night debut. Afterward, he announced that he has dominated everywhere he has ever competed and ECW will be no different.
Tommy Dreamer eliminated from the Elimination Chase to Backlash in a Triple Threat Match (WATCH | PHOTOS) For the second week in a row, Finlay was the hero when he pinned Tommy Dreamer to further narrow down the hunt for ECW Champion Jack Swaggers title. The Irishman brings his love to fight to the debut edition of WWE Superstars, where he will face Christian in a battle to become No. 1 contender to the coveted prize. Much to Swaggers disappointment for not being granted a question and answer timeslot on the show, ECW interim General Manager Tiffany scheduled the contest for Thursday night in her second major decision since acquiring Theodore Longs responsibilities.

ATLANTA - The 2009 Draft saw the entire WWE roster shaken up, and even after a special three-hour Raw, the changes are still coming with the Supplemental Draft, live on WWE.com all day Wednesday. While the WWE Universe certainly won, with such high-profile Superstars as Rey Mysterio, Matt Hardy, CM Punk and Big Show changing brands and WWE Champion Triple H bringing Raw its second World Title, the night was a rough one for Randy Orton.
Not only did the Draft bring Ortons nemesis Triple H to Monday nights, but his protégés in The Legacy failed to defeat The Game, Batista & Shane McMahon, meaning that The Legend Killer will have to face The King of Kings on the next Raw. (Exclusive Draftee interviews)
Though the WWE Universe might not have known what to expect with the 2009 Draft, they should know to "Expect Everything" for the very first episode of WWE Superstars this Thursday at 8 ET/5 WT only on WGN America. (More)
WWE Champion Triple H, Batista & Shane McMahon def. The Legacy; The Game earned an opportunity to go one-on-one with Randy Orton on the next Raw (PHOTOS | WATCH) In Raws main event, there wasnt a Draft pick on the line, but instead something far more valuable to the competitors: An opportunity to exact retribution from Randy Orton. With the ring warrior scoring the pinfall earning a match against The Legend Killer on the next Raw, WWE Champion Triple H, Batista & Shane McMahon were more concerned with getting a victory for themselves than with working as a team. As Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase did their best to take advantage of their opponents strife, their opponents did themselves no favors, with Shane going so far as to break up Batistas pin. As The Animal and Shane OMac argued, however, Triple H took advantage of the situation to pin Ted DiBiase after a devastating Pedigree, dashing The Legacys hopes of keeping their leader out of competition the following week.
Chris Jericho (SmackDown) def. Tommy Dreamer (ECW); Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio drafted to SmackDown (PHOTOS) Though he had made Raw his home since returning to WWE, Chris Jericho competed in the nights last interpromotional Draft match on behalf of SmackDown, where he had been drafted earlier in the evening. The nefarious Superstar proved what a valuable addition he will be to SmackDowns roster by defeating ECW Original Tommy Dreamer and bringing more championship gold to Friday nights with Draftee, Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio.
Matt Hardy (Raw) def. CM Punk (SmackDown); Divas Champion Maryse drafted to Raw (PHOTOS | WATCH) Matt Hardy and CM Punk entered the 2009 WWE Draft representing SmackDown and Raw respectively, but by the time they faced off in the ring, their brand allegiances had switched. As the two ring warriors slugged it out, Jeff Hardy rushed to the ring and attacked his sibling, resulting in the disqualification of Mr. Money in the Bank and allowing Matt to pick up another random selection for Raw. With Womens Champion Melina drafted to SmackDown earlier, Monday nights were in sore need of womens division gold, and found it in the form of the newest Raw Diva: Divas Champion Maryse.
Christian (ECW) def. Shelton Benjamin (SmackDown); Vladimir Kozlov drafted to ECW (PHOTOS) Christian took to the ring to compete against Shelton Benjamin, and managed to show The Gold Standard what being Captain Charisma is all about, picking up a win and a Draft pick for his home brand of ECW. Though it was the only selection of the night for the Land of the Extreme, interim ECW General Manager Tiffany couldnt be disappointed as it brought Vladimir Kozlov, The Moscow Mauler to Tuesday nights.
Edge (SmackDown) won the Tri-Branded Battle Royal; Kane & Chris Jericho drafted to SmackDown (PHOTOS | WATCH) Five Superstars from each of WWEs three brands took to the ring for a 15-Man Tri-Branded Battle Royal, with the victor earning two Draft picks for their respective brand. With so much talent loaded into the ring, the match could have gone any way, but it was The Ultimate Opportunist Edge who outlasted the competition including Big Show, Mark Henry and Finlay and was the last Superstar left in the ring. Though Raw had gained numerous new ring warriors throughout the night, this win did a lot to even the score by bringing both Kane and Chris Jericho to SmackDown.
Kofi Kingston (Raw) def. The Miz (ECW); The Miz drafted to Raw (PHOTOS) Representing Raw, Kofi Kingston competed against ECWs The Miz, accompanied by his tag team partner, John Morrison. Perhaps not accustomed to working alone, The Shaman of Sexy was caught interfering in the match on behalf of the self-proclaimed chick magnet, leading to The Mizs loss by disqualification, and another Draft pick for Raw. The former reality TV star will be getting more chances to work solo, as he was randomly selected to move to Monday nights. After embracing his Dirt Sheet partner, The Miz turned on him, leveling him with a Reality Check.
The Great Khali (SmackDown) def. Santino Marella (Raw); Mr. Money in the Bank CM Punk drafted to SmackDown (PHOTOS | WATCH) In another interpromotional SmackDown vs. Raw match, Santino Marella was faced with the massive Great Khali. Before the match began, however, Beth Phoenix came to the stage with a special announcement regarding the impending contest. By order of GM Vickie Guerrero, in addition to the Draft pick already at stake, if Santino lost the match, his twin sister, Miss WrestleMania Santina Marella, would have to be a guest on the Khali Kiss Cam. Unfortunately for the Italian Superstar and Miss WrestleMania, The Great Khali was victorious. In addition to winning some time with Santina next week, The Punjabi Playboy also earned SmackDown a Draft pick, bringing CM Punk to Friday nights. The Straightedge Superstar brings with him his Money in the Bank contract, which if utilized properly, is as valuable as any World Title.
World Heavyweight Champion John Cena (Raw) def. ECW Champion Jack Swagger (ECW); Matt Hardy and WWE Champion Triple H drafted to Raw (PHOTOS | WATCH) With two Draft picks up for grabs, World Heavyweight Champion John Cena faced off against ECW Champion Jack Swagger for the first time ever.

Kane (Raw) def. The Brian Kendrick (SmackDown); Big Show drafted to Raw (PHOTOS) Representing SmackDown, The Brian Kendrick took on Kane with another Draft selection on the line. But even with the assistance of his bodyguard, Ezekiel Jackson, Kendrick was no match for the immense size and strength of The Big Red Monster. Kanes victory earned Raw another Draftee, bringing in The Worlds Largest Athlete, Big Show, and eliminating the 7-footers status as the biggest Superstar on Raw.
Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio (Raw) def. Evan Bourne (ECW); United States Champion MVP drafted to Raw (PHOTOS | WATCH) The first match of the night pitted two high-flyers against one another in the form of Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio and ECWs Evan Bourne. Unfortunately for Air Bourne, his aerial maneuvers were no match for the ring experience of The Master of the 619, who picked up the win. Like most of the matches on the Draft night, there was a randomized Draft pick at stake, which Mysterio picked up for Raw. With the first Draft selection of the evening, Monday nights gained another title as United States Champion MVP joined the roster.
WWE Champion Triple H, Batista & Shane McMahon to face The Legacy on Raw with a match against Randy Orton at stake (PHOTOS) After returning to WWE the week before, Batista opened Raw on the night of the Draft with vengeance on his mind. Though hell have a chance to meet Randy Orton in the ring as part of the WWE Championship Tag Team Match at Backlash, The Animal made clear his desire to face The Legend Killer on Raw and take revenge for the vicious punt that kept him from the ring for months. But Batista wasnt the only competitor with his sights set on Orton, as he was joined in the ring by both Shane McMahon and WWE Champion Triple H, who both wanted to get their hands on the venomous Superstar for what his attacks on Stephanie McMahon and the WWE Chairman himself, Mr. McMahon.
As the three argued over who would get first dibs on Orton, they were interrupted by Vickie Guerrero. Raws new General Manager announced that only one of them would get the opportunity to face The Legend Killer before Backlash, and that they would have to earn it. Guerrero then placed WWE Champion Triple H, Batista & Shane McMahon in a 3-on-2 Handicap Match against The Legacy for later in the night. Whoever scores the pinfall on either Rhodes or DiBiase will have earned themselves a match against Orton on the next Raw, but if The Legacy prevails, then none of The Vipers enemies will be able to get their hands on him.
After Melina was drafted to Smackdown and Raw went to commercial, Mickie James and Kelly Kelly were hugging Melina goodbye and Melina was crying.
There was no dark match main event. Triple H, Batista and Shane just soaked up the crowd and then Batista and Triple H half-ass did the Shane dance
The two sections on either side of the hard camera weren't full but the rest of the arena was packed. Some young kids left during the commercial before the main event.
Biggest Pops: 1. Batista 2. Triple H 3. Rey
Biggest Heat: 1. Vickie 2. Jericho 3. George Bush on the Tribute to the Troops video
Did JBL not leave WWE on good terms? Posted by Randy Gordon on 04/13/2009 at 02:05 PM
Mike Mooneyham notes in his latest wrestling column for The Post and Courier that John Bradshaw Layfield didn't leave World Wrestling Entertainment on the best of terms.
Mooneyham wrote: "Word, however, has surfaced that JBL didn't leave the company on the best of terms. His wife, financial guru Meredith Whitney, also didn't attend what appears to have been Layfield's last match."
Former WWE Women's Champion Victoria has updated her Myspace blog with the following post:
"I ran into a couple former WWE employees there. Dan Stevenson, who was a behind the scenes guy, is now with TNA. He introduced me to Dixie Carter and her husband. I don't know if she's supposed to have a tough businesswoman image. But I'm gonna shatter that. She was supernice. It's always weird to me when a tidbit of my personal life becomes wrestling gossip, because someone saw Dixie and I talking, and now 'I may be going to TNA'. I'd be lying if I said it never crossed my mind, but they haven't come to me with anything, and I am really focused on my MMA."
Big Show def. Kofi Kingston The Great Khali def. Santino Marella Gail Kim def. Michelle McCool Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase def. Unified WWE Tag Team Champions Carlito & Primo (Non-title) Matt Hardy def. Jeff Hardy (Stretcher Match)
AUSTIN, Texas In the explosive wake of the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania, Theodore Long returned to Friday nights to once again take his place as the General Manager of SmackDown. And his first decision was a bit of a stretch.
Matt Hardy def. Jeff Hardy (Stretcher Match) Fresh off his Extreme Rules victory over his brother at WrestleMania (recap), Matt Hardy looked to erase Jeff from WWE. He demanded that Jeff come to the ring and apologize to him and the WWE Universe for being an extreme disappointment, or he would end up leaving the ring on a stretcher. After Jeff emerged to chase Matt from the squared-circle, the returning Teddy Long made Matts choice of words into a reality. For the first time ever on SmackDown, Jeff and Matt would face each other in a Stretcher Match. (WATCH | PHOTOS)
In the culmination of the Hardys' excruciating Stretcher Match, Matt moved out of the way at the last second, causing Jeff to Swanton Bomb himself down onto an empty, unforgiving stretcher frame outside the ring. After Matt finished him off with a painful chair shot, he claimed victory by pushing his fallen brother up the ramp. Once his arms were raised in unsettling triumph, Matt sent Jeff hurling back down the ramp, causing the stretcher to smash into the ring below. (WATCH | PHOTOS)
The Cutting Edge with special guest World Heavyweight Champion John Cena (WATCH | PHOTOS) With John Cena seated before him and their Last Man Standing Match for the World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash looming (Backlash preview) Edge told the World Champion that he had stolen his title and that he completely hates Cena. Cena informed The Rated-R Superstar that what he really hates is the truth; that no matter how many times Edge has knocked him down throughout their epic rivalry, he has kept coming at him and always will. The Champ then offered to give The Ultimate Opportunist a free shot to prove his point, but Edge wouldnt take it. Instead, he simply backed up and walked away.
Big Show def. Kofi Kingston ( PHOTOS) After coming up short in his WrestleMania bid to win the World Heavyweight Championship (recap), Big Show took out his frustration and anger by delivering the knockout punch in mid-air to Kofi Kingston. Though Kingston gave a tremendously valiant effort in his attempt to overcome The Worlds Largest Athlete, in the end, he would suffer a giant disappointment.
The Great Khali def. Santino Marella (WATCH | PHOTOS) Due to recent events surrounding Santinos emerging sister Santina, Santino arrived on SmackDown to issue an open challenge and show any Friday night Superstar who wished to face him that Santina wasnt the only Marella sibling to be afraid of. The Great Khali answered the call. When Ranjin Singh explained that Khali would not hurt Santino if Santina would be his guest on Khali's Kiss Cam, Santino declined, insulting The Punjabi Playboy profusely in the process. So, the bell was rung and Santino ended up taking the painful Punjabi Plunge.
Gail Kim def. Michelle McCool (WATCH | PHOTOS) Gail Kim reversed Michelle McCool's pin attempt to win a hard-fought victory over the former Divas Champion. After Gail missed a dropkick off the top rope, Michelle looked to have things going her way. But as she went for the cover, Gails quick thinking and quicker action prevailed.
Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase def. Unified WWE Tag Team Champions Carlito & Primo (Non-title) (PHOTOS) DiBiase's distraction of Carlito allowed Cody Rhodes to hit the devastating Cross Rhodes on the Southpaw from San Juan. After the match, Rhodes & DiBiase continued to attack the Unified WWE Tag Team Champions, when Randy Orton emerged to survey the damage. The Legend Killer then gave a frightening account of what will happen when Legacy meets WWE Champion Triple H, Shane McMahon and the returning Batista at Backlash with the gold at stake. (Backlash preview)
Update on Smackdowns announce team - As of before Wrestlemania, there had been no decision made on Tazzs replacement for the Smackdown announce team.

Foley goes back and forth between Foley and Cactus Jack during the interview talking about how Cactus will show up at Lockdown to finish what he started with Sting back in the day. Sting walks out and tries to talk sense into Foley. Foley goes crazy and takes out Sting since he has the power to do whatever he wants. He calls for random theme songs to be played to prove this and ends it with Sting's theme standing over Sting with his barbed wire bat held high.
- Backstage, Brother Runt and Balls Mahoney are shown leaving the building and are attacked by Beer Money. They brawl to the ring where Beer Money destroys them. Robert Roode took out Runt with a powerbomb through a table. Team 3D hit the ring and Brother Ray gets on the mic. He said the match in Philly was just supposed to be a good wrestling match between two good teams for dominance, but now it got personal. He said the match at Lockdown will now be a Philadelphia Street Fight.
- Kurt Angle is out for the Lethal Lockdown advantage match replacing Kevin Nash. Jeff Jarrett walks out and gets on the mic saying he is tired of the rumors and is putting them to rest tonight. He has done what is best for TNA and what is best for the fans. Jarrett introduces the fourth member of Team Jarrett and Angle's opponent tonight..."The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels. Daniels got a big reaction from the crowd.
- Kurt Angle defeated Christopher Daniels after the original decision was reversed by Jeff Jarrett. Daniels initially rolled up Angle, but Angle argued with the referee that his shoulder was up. The match was restarted after Angle made Jarrett look at the replay and it clearly showed his shoulder was up. He declares Angle the winner, even though he wasn't happy about it. Angle celebrates with the Mafia in the ring until Samoa Joe's music hits. Joe, Jarrett, Styles and Daniels clear the ring of the Mafia to close the show.
