Orton dropkicks Cody then Bryan kicks him in the chest, and Orton and Bryan face off then lock up as we go to a commercial. When we return, Cody and Wade are in control and Wade takes Orton outside and whips him into the ring steps then gets back in and he and Cody take turns kicking Bryan. They whip him off the ropes and hit a double elbow, then Orton gets involved again by snapping Wade's head down on the ropes and kicking Cody in the corner.
Orton turns around and gets punched in the face by Wade and he sets up a pump handle slam, then Orton counters out but Cody drops him with a side Russian leg sweep. They continue to work together and kick Orton in the corner, and Bryan hits Wade with a top rope dropkick then sets Cody up on the top rope. Wade gets Bryan on his shoulders and holds him as Cody jumps off the turnbuckle and hits a diving clothesline. Wade makes the cover but Cody pulls him off and throws him shoulder first into the ringpost as we go to a commercial. When we return, Orton backdrops Cody then gets hit from behind by Wade, then they slug it out and Wade elbows him then hits some kneelifts near the apron. He backs up and hits a running big boot that knocks Orton to the floor, then hits a spinning sidewalk slam on Bryan but Cody breaks it up and throws him outside.
Everybody ends up back inside breaking up multiple pin attempts, then Cody kicks Orton and hits a front release suplex and goes to the top rope. Orton crotches him on the turnbuckle and hits a superplex, then Wade breaks up the pin attempt and Bryan hits a top rope headbutt. Orton picks up Wade and Cody and throws them outside, and hits Bryan with the hanging DDT and signals for the RKO, but Wade pulls him out of the ring and slams him on the floor. Cody tries to slide in and steal the pin, but Bryan counters into the LeBell Lock and gets Cody to tap and wins the title shot next Tuesday. Cody attacks him after the bell and stomps him in the corner until Orton spins him around and hits him with the RKO, then Bryan gets back up and holds his hand up and says 'one more time.'
