Result: Orton kills Harper with the RKO for the win (17:13).

Rating: After so much mediocrity on this show, this bout arrived at just the right time. The match was too slow at times and had way too many chinlocks, which meant the crowd was dead for about half of it. Even their "this is awesome!" chant after the superplex seemed vaguely sarcastic.

The table spot with Harper was brilliantly sold, and most of the outside brawling was fun, while Harper's near-falls got the crowd going even though the ending was never in doubt.

At least Harper looked great in defeat, selling the RKO like a beast. This one ran a good length and was basically solid, but wasn't without its dull moments. 6/10
