Result: Jeff picks up the win after hitting the Swanton Bomb through a table (16:57).

Rating: There's always going to be a novel appeal to seeing the Hardyz going at it, even if this one just went through a lot of the hardcore match staples - hitting each other with objects, a standard table bump and so on.

It was fun seeing the World's Biggest Ladder get balanced across the six-sided ring, but the powerbomb onto the keyboard looked a lot less cool than they probably hoped it would, and ultimately this was just missing that big marquee moment to elevate it above what we usually see in matches like this.

The finish was particularly underwhelming considering that Jeff said in the days before the PPV that he was planning to pull off "something big" at the show, and was hoping to top Shane McMahon's insane WrestleMania 32 bump. A decent enough brawl, but simply not great. 6/10
