Cena counters the suplex and charges him in the corner, but Alberto moves away and Cena goes shoulder-first into the ringpost before getting kicked in the head. Alberto hits another double forearm shot before putting him in an elevated hammerlock, then Cena tries to make it to his feet as we go to a commercial. We get back to see Cena duck a clothesline and bodyslam Alberto, then he connects with the Five Knuckle Shuffle but Alberto counters an Attitude Adjustment attempt. Alberto calls for the Cross Armbreaker but Cena counters with a neckbreaker, then he heads up top but Alberto drops him with a step up enziguiri.
Alberto calls for him to get up and runs across the ring, then he goes for another enziguiri but Cena counters and tries to lock in the STF. Alberto counters with a backbreaker for two, then he climbs back up top and jumps but Cena dropkicks him in midair and goes for another Attitude Adjustment. Cena lifts him but Alberto counters it, then he tries to take Cena down but Cena reverses it and puts him in the STF near the ropes. Alberto is able to crawl to the ropes to break it, then he rolls to the apron and counters Cena's attack before applying the Cross Armbreaker on the ropes.
Alberto waits until the ref counts to break it at the five count, then he tries to slingshot himself in but Cena once again counters with another AA attempt. Alberto yet again counters and slams him in the corner, then he hangs him in the tree of woe position and kicks his shoulders before running at him. Cena pulls himself up and Alberto hits the ringpost, then Cena steadies himself on the top rope and connects with a diving legdrop for the win. Cena celebrates on the ramp and starts heading backstage, but Dolph Ziggler runs out and smashes him in the head with his briefcase before leaving.
Winner – John Cena
